3.6
nominal volume
capacity
volume stated by the manufacturer
Note 1 to entry: See Table 1 without tolerances.
Note 2 to entry: The English term "capacity" and the French term "capacité" are translated in the German version by

4 Volumes
This part of EN 840 identifies the two classes of containers:
 Class I - small size (nominal volume up to 1 000 l);
 Class II - large size (nominal volume between 1 000 l and 1 300 l).
Within the two above-mentioned classes of containers the following volumes are identified: 500 l, 660 l, 770 l,
1 000 l, 1 100 l and 1 200 l. Nominal volumes different from those referenced can be used by agreement
between user and manufacturer. The tolerance of the volumes shall be ± 5 % maximum measured according

5.1 The design of the containers need not correspond to the drawings given in Figure 1. The functional
dimensions given in Table 1 shall be respected. Recommendations for manufacturers of lifting devices are
given in Annex A (see also EN 1501-1).
5.2 The container shall be constructed so that when it is unloaded or loaded with a nominal load
(see Clause 6), it fits on an approved compatible lifting device. It shall be automatically locked safely into the
lifting device during the lifting operation. If the container is equipped with a comb receiver, it shall correspond
to Figure 2.
5.3 The lid(s) shall cover the opening of the container completely. It shall be opened easily by itself during
the emptying cycle it/they shall be made with at least two fixing points and have at least one means of
opening.
5.4 Handles fitted in front of the trunnion shall have a measurement over the handles of 10 mm less than
the actual measurement in Table 1, dimension N° 33. The h
