e 8-1 Rev. 1 8.0 ACCEPTANCE TESTS AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAM This chapter discusses the acceptance test and mainterance program to be used on the packaging.

8.1 Acceptance Tests 8.1.1 Visual Inspection The containment tank will be visually inspected for alignment of vessel parts, tilt and orientation of nozzles.

This inspection is made to insure that no damage had occurred during fabrication. Defects found will be followed by more extensive examination such as additional x-rays.

8.1.2 Structural and Pressure Tests The containment tank will be hydrostatically tested at 55 PSIG for a minimum of one hour. This pressure test insures that the tank is leak tight.

If leaks are detected rewelding or reworking -of parts will be required.

8.1.3 Leak Tests The retainer pans and spill tank will require a water tightness test. These units must stand full of water for a minimum of four hours. Leakage will be corrected by rewelding or replacement of parts..

8.1.4 Component Tests 8.1.4.1 Rupture Disc The rupture' disc used will' be a standard off the shelve item with no additional testing required.

8.1.4.2 Gaskets The teflon gaskets are tested during the hydrostatic test described in Section 8.1.2.

8.2 Maintenance Program 8.2.1 Structural and Pressure Test The hydrostatic test performed in accordance with 49 CFR 178.343-7 must be performed every two years using a pressure of 55 PSIG. The test must be authorized by a certified pressure vessel inspector. If leakage occurs corrective measures must be followed by an acceptable retest prior to further use of the tank trailer.
