Technology-separate and explosion-proof of gasoline,
gas filling station and light-fuel, LPG tank of
transportation by truck
1 Scope
This standard specifies the classification and marking, requirements, testing
methods, inspection rules and technical documents of automobile gasoline (gas
filling) stations that adopt the separate and explosion-proof technology as well
as the light fuel oil and liquefied petroleum gas separate and explosion-proof
storage tanks (tanks) for automobile transportation.
This standard applies to the design, manufacture, installation and acceptance
of separate and explosion-proof storage tanks for gasoline (gas filling) stations,
light fuel oil, LPG tank cars.
2 Normative references
The provisions in following documents become the provisions of this Standard
through reference in this Standard. For the dated references, the subsequent
amendments (excluding corrections) or revisions do not apply to this Standard;
however, parties who reach an agreement based on this Standard are
encouraged to study if the latest versions of these documents are applicable.
For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document applies.

liquid, the ratio of the volume of the liquid replaced to the volume of the tank.
3.7
Washing passage
A channel as reserved at the bottom of the tank for removing dirt and residue.
3.8
Well
A bracket installed at the manhole of the tank with an upper end fixed to the
manhole and a lower end connected with the cleaning channel.
3.9
Internal unit
A column or multi-faceted column made of metal mesh packed in the well
with the separate and explosion-proof material filled inside.
3.10
Construction piece
The components used to support the separate and explosion-proof materials,
well, and position the cleaning channels in the tank, which are generally
composed of one or several units.
3.11
Increases of pressure by burning explosion
Under the same test conditions, the pressure value after the explosion test
without and with the installation of the separate and explosion-proof material
is measured. The difference between the two and the initial pressure value
before the explosion test is the increase of pressure by burning explosion,
which can be used to evaluate the explosion-proof performance of the
separate and explosion-proof material.
4 Classification and marking
4.1 Classification
4.1.1 Classification by separate and explosion-proof materials
Separate and explosion-proof materials are divided into five types: Type I, Type
5.3.1 Cleaning before implementing separate and explosion-proof
technology
Implementation of cleaning of separate and explosion-proof technology storage
tank adopts different solutions for new storage tanks and in-use storage tanks.
5.3.1.1 New tank cleaning
5.3.1.1.1 Inspect and determine the reagents for the tank leakage test.
5.3.1.1.2 Choose an appropriate cleaning agent for cleaning operations.
5.3.1.1.3 The safety analysis and qualification criteria are as follows:
a) When using an explosion detector or other similar means, the measured
gas or vapor concentration shall be less than or equal to 20% of the lower
explosion limit;
b) When using other analytical methods, when the lower explosive limit of
the measured gas or vapor is greater than or equal to 4%, the measured
concentration is less than or equal to 0.5%; when the measured lower
explosive limit of the gas or vapor is less than 4%, the measured
concentration is less than or equal to 0.2%;
c) Other requirements shall comply with the provisions of Chapter 6 in HG
23011-1999.
5.3.1.1.4 The operations in the equipment shall comply with the requirements
of HG 23012.
5.3.1.2 In-use tank cleaning
5.3.1.2.1 In order to ensure the construction safety in the transformation
process of the separate and explosion-proof storage tank; the storage tank shall
be cleaned before transformation. Before cleaning, it shall check and determine
the leakage of the storage tank. If it leaks, it shall be repaired and welded to
prevent leakage. Cleaning shall meet the requirements of 5.3.1.1.1 and
5.3.1.1.2 of this standard.
5.3.1.2.2 The safety analysis and qualification criteria shall be in accordance
with the provisions of 5.3.1.1.3 of this standard.
5.3.1.2.3 The operations in the equipment shall comply with the requirements
of HG 23012.
5.3.2 Cleaning of storage tanks after separate and explosion-proof
technology transformation
5.5 Explosion-proof requirements
The Increases of pressure by burning explosion of the separate and explosion-
proof device shall be less than or equal to 0.14 MPa.
6 Testing method
6.1 Testing of separate and explosion-proof materials
6.1.1 Material appearance quality
The appearance quality of the separate and explosion-proof materials shall be
inspected by straightedge and visual inspection methods, which shall meet the
requirements of 5.2.1.
6.1.2 Material structure size
Use a vernier caliper to check the structural size of the separate and explosion-
proof material, which shall meet the requirements of 5.2.2.
6.2 Safety testing of cleaning operation
Determination of the concentration of flammable and explosive gas or vapor.
6.2.1 Explosion detector or other similar means for testing
