Liftable Tank Container Standards

Quelle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_container

Liftable tank container standards refer to international regulations, notably the International Convention for Safe Containers (CSC) and ISO 1496-3, which specify requirements for the design, equipment, and testing of tank containers. They ensure these units can be safely lifted by crane and transported in intermodal operations, covering dimensions, payload capacity, corrosion protection, pressure testing, and safety fittings.
