Packaging, transport and storage
1 Packaging
The containers do not need to be packaged for transport or (temporary) storage if the
requirements of section 2 are met. All nozzle openings shall be closed by screwing on the
caps.
2 Transport, storage
2.1 General
Transport shall be carried out only by companies with specialist experience, suitable
machinery, equipment and means of transport, and adequately trained staff. To prevent
danger to employees and third parties, the relevant accident prevention regulations shall be
observed.
2.2

Preparation for transport

(1) The containers shall be prepared for transport such as to ensure that no damage can
occur during loading, transport and unloading.
(2) The loading surface of the transport vehicle shall be designed such as to exclude the
possibility of containers being damaged by impact or pressure due to point loading.
2.3

Loading and unloading

(1) Impact loads shall be avoided when lifting, moving and setting down the containers.
(2) If a forklift is used, the containers shall be secured while they are being moved with the
forklift.
(3) Nozzles and other protruding parts of containers shall not be used for lashing or lifting.
The containers shall not be dragged over the ground or floor.
2.4 Transport
(1) The containers shall be secured so that they cannot shift position during transport.
(2) The manner in which containers are fastened must not cause any damage.
2.5 Storage
(1) When temporarily stored outside, the containers should be protected from damage and
storms. Containers may not be exposed to the elements for more than 6 months.
(2) It is imperative to ensure that no rainwater can penetrate between the inner and collecting
containers.
2.6 Damage
In the event of damage sustained during transport or temporary storage, a competent expert

in synthetic materials shall determine the course of action, possibly with the involvement of
the applicant.

National Technical Approval
No.Z-40.21-228, dated 9 May 2016
Blown polyethylene containers (PE-HD) with
integrated sheet steel collection tray 750
I and 1000 I Type: UNI-Tank 750/1000
Permissible fill level
(1) When determining the permissible fill level, the cubic coefficient of expansion of the liquids
with which a container is filled must be taken into account as too must a possible warming of
the liquid during storage and the associated increase in volume of the liquid.
(2) If the liquid is filled in a cool state within the limits stipulated in section 1 (3) of the national
technical approval, the associated expansions must additionally be taken into account when
determining the fill level.
(3) For the storage of liquids hazardous to water without any additional hazardous properties
(toxic or caustic in accordance with (EU) regulation no. 1272/2008) in stationary containers,
the permissible fill level at the filling temperature can be determined as follows:
Fill level = in % of the capacity
The mean cubic coefficient of expansion of α can be determined as follows:
d15 = Density of the liquid at +15°C d50 =
Density of the liquid at +50°C.
(4) For containers for storing liquids hazardous to water that are
classified as toxic or caustic in accordance with (EU) regulation no. 1272/2008 (CLP
Regulation), a fill level of at least 3% lower than the fill level determined in accordance with
paragraph (3) should be adhered to.
