CEN/TC 266/WG 4 - Thermoplastic tanks made by the blow moulding and/or the rotational moulding processes, for the storage of oils having a flash point above 55 °C or 60 °C

Revision of EN 13341:2005 as far as:
- the resistance to weathering;
- the pressure resistance test;
- production of the specimen,
- factory production control;
- the lower limit of capacity
are concerned.

This European Standard specifies the requirements for materials (thermoplastics or steel), physical properties and performance of secondary containments used with specific thermoplastics static tanks complying with EN 13341.
This document is designed to be read with EN 13341.

This document specifies requirements for materials, physical properties and performance of single blow moulded and rotationally moulded polyethylene tanks or polyamide 6 (by anionic polymerisation) tanks, with or without reinforcements, for above ground storage of domestic heating oil, kerosene and diesel fuels.
It is only applicable to static blow moulded and rotationally moulded polyethylene tanks and polyamide 6 (by anionic polymerisation) tanks that are subject to atmospheric pressure and have a capacity from 450 l up to 10 000 l.
This document does not consider the consequences of wind or snow loading which is considered to be an installation issue.
