A propane tank equipped with its safety components + ground conductor, in compliance with regulations.

The covers on 3.2 and 3.5 ton tanks are off-centre on one side. After the gas outlet tank valve:

1 pressure reducing outlet valve 1.5 bars

1pressure limiter, outlet pressure of 1 .75 bars

X meters of copper, steel, or HDPE pipe line with diameter according to flow rate.

IGU** specifications: Copper B 524-1

Steel B 521

HDPE B527

If a section of this pipe line must be buried, provide a 0.60 m deep trench and place a yellow plastic

screen 30 cm below ground level.

This buried steel or copper pipe line will be treated against corrosion and stray currents

Note: If the tank is able to be accessed by the public, provide a chain-link fence and place a “no smoking” sign on each side of the fence together with safety precautions on the front gate of the storage area.

Standard dimensions of “small bulk” tanks from 3.2 t to 5 tons
