The results shall be recorded. There shall be no evident visible damage to the overfill prevention sensor and the overfill prevention sensor shall operate in compliance with the criteria listed in 4.1.3.1.2, Figure 1 and Table 1. 5.2.2 Durability against chemical attack 5.2.2.1 General Third party test results, data sheet of suppliers, as well as empirical values shall be accepted. If such documents are not available, the durability of all materials of the overfill prevention sensor or parts, normally exposed to liquids or their vapours, against chemical attack for the declared liquid shall be checked with the test liquid of each relevant group according to Annex C of EN 14879-4:2007.
