Workshop fabricated steel tanks - Part 1: Horizontal cylindrical single skin and double skin tanks for the underground storage of flammable and nonflammable water polluting liquids other than for heating and cooling of buildings

This document specifies the product characteristics and test methods for workshop fabricated cylindrical,
horizontal steel tanks, single (type S) and double skin (type D) intended to be used for the underground
storage of water polluting liquids (both flammable and non-flammable) and installed in industrial processes
or in petrol stations at normal ambient temperature conditions (−20 °C to +50 °C) within the following
limits:
— from 800 mm up to 3 000 mm nominal diameter and;
— up to a maximum overall length of 6 times the nominal diameter;
— with an operating pressure (Po) of maximum 50 kPa (0,5 bar(g)) and minimum – 5 kPa (–50 mbar(g))
and;
— for double skin tanks with a vacuum leak detection system where the kinematic viscosity does not
exceed 5 × 10−3 m2/s.
Tanks designed to this standard allow for an earth cover of up to 1,5 m. If there are imposed traffic loads or a
greater earth cover, calculation is expected to be carried out.
This document is not applicable to tanks used for storage and/or supply of fuel/gas for building
heating/cooling systems, and of hot or cold water not intended for human consumption, nor to loads and
special measures necessary in areas subject to risk of earthquakes.
Guidance on installation of tanks is presented in Annex A, which does not include special measures that
might be necessary in areas subject to flooding.
This document is not applicable for the storage of liquids having dangerous goods classes listed in Table 1
because of the special dangers involved.

Werksgefertigte Tanks aus Stahl - Teil 1: Liegende zylindrische ein- und doppelwandige Tanks zur unterirdischen Lagerung von brennbaren und nicht brennbaren wassergefährdenden Flüssigkeiten

-   Nenndurchmesser von 800 mm bis 3 000 mm; und
-   maximale Gesamtlänge bis zum 6 fachen des Nenndurchmessers;
-   Betriebsduck (Po) von höchstens 50 kPa (0,5 bar(g)) und mindestens −5 kPa (−50 mbar(g)); und
-   für doppelwandige Tanks mit einem Vakuum-Leckanzeigesystem, bei denen die kinematische Viskosität des Lagermediums 5 × 10−3 m2/s nicht übersteigt.
Tanks, die nach dieser Norm ausgelegt wurden, ermöglichen eine Erdüberdeckung von bis zu 1,5 m. Wenn eine Verkehrsbelastung auf der Oberfläche oder eine größere Erdüberdeckung vorliegen, sollte eine Berechnung durchgeführt werden.
Diese Norm gilt weder für Tanks, welche eingesetzt werden für die Lagerung und/oder Bereitstellung von Kraftstoffen für Heiz /Kühlanlagen von Gebäuden sowie von heißem oder kaltem Wasser, das nicht für den menschlichen Gebrauch bestimmt ist, noch für Lasten und spezielle Maßnahmen, die in erdbeben-gefährdeten Gebieten erforderlich sind.
Hinweise zum Einbau der Tanks sind in Anhang A angegeben, der allerdings keine speziellen Maßnahmen enthält, die in Überschwemmungsgebieten notwendig sein könnten.
Diese Norm ist nicht für die Lagerung von Flüssigkeiten anwendbar, welche unter die in Tabelle 1 aufgeführten Gefahrgutklassen fallen, da von ihnen besondere Gefahren ausgehen.
