    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Specifies requirements for the design and manufacture of polyethylene storage tanks that are rationally moulded in one-piece seamless construction, for non-buried, vertical installation, and capable of containing water, liquids for food and beverage manufacture and chemical solutions at atmospheric pressure.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard specifies requirements for the design and manufacture of polyethylene storage tanks that are rotationally moulded in one-piece seamless construction. The tanks are for non-buried, vertical installation and capable of containing water, liquids used in food and beverage manufacture and chemical solutions at atmospheric pressure.Separation of the roof (lid) from the body of the tank, after moulding, is permitted for transport purposes, provided that-the structural integrity of the tank is not adversely affected after the roof has been refitted by the manufacturer or its nominated representative in the manner prescribed by the design engineer; andthe prevention of insect and/or vermin ingress is maintained.Methods for demonstrating compliance with this standard are given in Appendix A.
