Operation
5.1.5.1
General
(1) Before beginning to use the containers that are not being used as part of a container
system, the operator must affix a sign at a suitable place to identify the stored liquid and its
density and concentration. The labelling required by other regulations remains unaffected.
(2) Whoever fills or empties a system must monitor this process and must comply with the
provisions of Section 5.1.5.2 before beginning the work.
(3) The operating directives of TRbF 20 and the Ordinance on Facilities Dealing with
Substances Hazardous to Water of 31 March 2010 (BGBl. I p. 377) and Ordinance on
Specialist Companies must be observed.
5.1.5.2
Filling and emptying
(1) Before filling, one must check whether the substance to be stored corresponds to the
approved substance as marked on the container and that the filling temperature does not
exceed 40 °C. One must additionally check how much stored liquid the container can
accommodate and whether the overfill protection mechanism / limiting value transmitter is
working properly.
(2) The containers must be filled and emptied using firmly attached lines (pipes or hoses),
provided water and occupational safety regulations do not provide for an exception.
(3) Container systems can be filled with heating oil EL grade pursuant to DIN 51603-1 and
heating oil EL A grade Bio 5 to Bio 15 pursuant to DIN V 51603-6, as well as diesel fuel
pursuant to DIN EN 590 and DIN EN 14214, from road tank vehicles or portable tanks by
way of securely attached pipelines or hoses and using a pump with a pump rate of up to
1200 litres/min and at zero pump pressure, up to 10 bar overpressure, provided they are
equipped with the following components:
!
filling system (filling; ventilation and exhaust ; emptying) pursuant to Sections 1 (4)
and 4 (3) / (4);
!
limiting value transmitter that has been granted national technical approval.
(4) Filling must be completely supervised.
5.1.5.3
Further Provisions
(1) The operating temperature of the stored liquids must not exceed 30 °C. However, the
temperature may exceed the operating temperature by 10 K for short periods (such as when
the storage liquid is at a higher temperature during filling).
(2) For use of the containers to store used lubricating, hydraulic and heat transfer oils,
collection containers with nozzles for secure connection of a permanent pipe or removable
line are used by trained technicians (not by just anyone).
5.2
Maintenance, servicing
(1) The operator of a storage system is required to commission with the servicing and
cleaning of the containers only those businesses which are specialist firms for these tasks
within the meaning of § 3 of the Ordinance on Facilities Dealing with Substances Hazardous
National Technical Approval
No. Z-40.21-432
to Water of 31 March 2010 (BGBl. I p. 377), unless this type of work has been excepted
from the specialist requirement by state regulations.
(2) Differing from Paragraph (1), maintenance work may also be carried out by trained staff
of the container manufacturer.
(3) Measures to correct damage must be undertaken in consultation with a competent expert
in synthetic materials

or with the participation of the applicant, if applicable.
(4) Cleaning the inside of containers with solvents (e.g. for an inspection) is not permitted.
The accident prevention regulations and regulations on the use of chemical cleaning agents
and the disposal of cleaning waste must be observed.
5.3
Inspections
5.3.1
Performance test/Pre-commissioning Inspection
(1) A performance test is required after the containers have been set up and the pipelines
and safety devices have been installed. The test consists of a visual inspection, water/air-
tightness test, inspection/test of filling, ventilation and exhaust lines and the fittings and other
equipment.
(2) The performance test does not replace any pre-commissioning inspection that must be
performed by an expert under water law; however it is possible to perform them at the same
time.
5.3.2
Ongoing Inspections/Inspections after commissioning
(1) The operator must visually examine the containers for water/air-tightness at least once
per week. If problems with the seal are discovered, the unit must be taken out of operation
immediately and the damaged containers must be emptied, if applicable.
(2) The functioning of the leakage detector pursuant to Section 5.1.1 (4) that is being used
must be inspected in accordance with the national technical approval for that leakage
detector.
(3) Inspections required pursuant to other regulations remain unaffected.
