15、 the Standard for Protected Aboveground Tanks for Flammable and Combustible Liquids, UL 2085; PROPOSED EFFECTIVE DATE SUMMARY OF TOPICS This bulletin proposes the Third Edition of the Standard for Aboveground Protected Tanks, UL Z85. This new edition is a proposed binational standard with harmonized

16、 requimments covering Canada and the United States. COMMENTS DUE: AUGUST If, 2000 Attached as Appendix A for your review and comment are proposed requirements for the Third Edition of UL 2085. Questions regarding interpretation of requirements should be directed to the responsible UL Staff. Please s

17、ee Appendix B of this bulletin regarding designated responsibility for the subject product category. Please note that proposed requirements are of a tentative and early nature and are for review and comment only. Current requirements are to be used to judge a product until these requirements are pub

18、lished in final form. PRODUCTS AND INDUSTRIES AFFECTED BY THE PROPOSAL UL requests your assistance in identiying other products or industries that might be affected by the requirements contained in this bulletin. UL suggests that all suppliers or customers for these products and industries be made a

19、ware of these requirements prior to their proposed effective date. Also, please forward your suggestions to UL so that these products and industries may be identified in future bulletins. SUBJECT 2085 9275775 0832225 OVb -2- MAY 19,2000 PROPOSED EFFECTIVE DATE The proposed requirements will necessit

20、ate a review and possible retest of currently Listed and Classified products. Therefore, UL proposes that the new requirements become effective 24 months after publication. This is intended to provide manufacturers with sufficient time to submit modified products for investigation and to implement t

21、he necessary changes in production. Please note that this also includes the time that will be needed by UL to conduct a review of the modified product. RATIONALE The proposed Third Edition of UL 2085 is a result of harmonization efforts between authorities in Canada, the United States and representa

22、tives from Underwriters Laboratories of Canada and Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Requirements used to conceive this standard were derived from ULC-S655, Aboveground Protected Tank Assemblies for Flammable and Combustible Liquids and the Second Edition of UL 2085, the Standard for Aboveground Prote

23、cted Tanks for Flammable and Combustible Liquids. IMPACT Manufacturers would no longer have to submit their products to two certification agencies to market their products in Canada and the United States. Harmonized requirements enable a tank to be covered in both countries, saving manufacturers the

24、 cost of a second evaluation and allowing for greater flexibility with marketing and shipping. REQUESTS FOR COMMENTS ON PROPOSALS Please provide the following: 1. Your comments concerning the proposed requirements; and 2. Your comments concerning the proposed effective date, should the proposals be

25、adopted. Comments should be sent to the attention of Paul Lloret at Urs Santa Clara office. Comments may be sent by mail, faxed to 408-556-6151, or e-mailed to Paul.E.LloretQ. Please reference all correspondence to Subject 2085. All comments should be sent by August 11, 2000. Unless specifically req

26、uested to do so, UL will not acknowledge comments indicating concurrence with these proposals. UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES INC.
