Special provisions
SP 640
The physical and technical characteristics mentioned in column (2) of Table A of Chapter 3.2 determine different tank codes for the carriage of substances of the same packing group in ADR tanks. In order to identify these physical and technical characteristics of the product carried in the tank, the following shall be added, to the particulars required in the transport document, only in case of carriage in ADR tanks: "Special provision 640X" where "X" is the applicable capital letter appearing after the reference to special provision 640 in column (6) of Table A of Chapter 3.2. These particulars may, however, be dispensed with in the case of carriage in the type of tank which, for substances of a specific packing group of a specific UN number, meets at least the most stringent requirements.
SP 664
When substances under this entry are carried in fixed tanks (tankvehicles) or demountable tanks, these tanks may be equipped with additive devices. Additive devices: -Are part of the service equipment for dispensing additives of UN No. 1202, UN No. 1993 packing group III, UN No. 3082 or nondangerous substances during discharge of the tank; -Consist of elements such as connecting pipes and hoses, closing devices, pumps and dosing devices which are permanently connected to the discharge device of the tank’s service equipment; -Include means of containment which are an integral part of the shell, or permanently fixed to the exterior of the tank or tankvehicle. Alternatively, additive devices may have connectors for connecting packagings. In this latter case, the packaging itself is not considered part of the additive device. The following requirements shall apply depending on the configuration: (a) Construction of the means of containment: (i) As an integral part of the shell (e.g. a tank compartment), they shall meet the relevant provisions of Chapter 6.8. (ii) When permanently fixed to the exterior of the tank or to the tankvehicle, they are not subject to the construction provisions of ADR provided they comply with the following provisions: They shall be made of a metallic material and comply with the following minimum wall thickness requirements: Material Minimum wall thicknessa Austenitic stainless steels 2.5 mm Other steels 3 mm Aluminium alloys 4 mm Pure aluminium of 99.80 % 6 mm a For means of containment made with double walls, the aggregate thickness of the outer metal wall and the inner metal wall shall correspond to the wall thickness prescribed. Welding shall be carried out in accordance with the first paragraph of 6.8.2.1.23, except that other suitable methods may be applied to confirm the quality of the welding. (iii) Packagings which are connectable to the additive device shall be metal packagings and meet the relevant construction requirements of Chapter 6.1, as applicable for the additive concerned. (b) Tank approval For tanks equipped or intended to be equipped with additive devices, where the additive device is not included in the original type approval of the tank, the provisions of 6.8.2.3.4 shall apply. (c) Use of means of containment and additive devices (i) In case of (a) (i) above, no additional requirements. (ii) In case of (a) (ii) above, the total capacity of the means of containment shall not exceed 400 litres per vehicle. (iii) In case of (a) (iii) above, 7.5.7.5 and 8.3.3 shall not apply. The packagings may only be connected to the additive device during discharge of the tank. During carriage, the closures and connectors shall be closed so as to be leaktight. (d) Testing for additive devices The provisions of 6.8.2.4 shall apply to the additive device. However, in case of (a) (ii) above, at the time of the initial, intermediate or periodic inspection of the tank, the means of containment of the additive device shall only be subject to an external visual inspection and a leakproofness test. The leakproofness test shall be carried out at a test pressure of at least 0.2 bar. NOTE: For the packagings described in (a) (iii) above, the relevant provisions of ADR shall apply. (e) Transport document Only the information required in accordance with 5.4.1.1.1 (a) to (d) needs to be added to the transport document for the additive concerned. In this case, the remark "additive device" shall be added to the transport document. (f) Training of drivers Drivers who have been trained in accordance with 8.2.1 for carriage of this substance in tanks need no additional training for the carriage of the additives. (g) Placarding or marking Placarding or marking of the fixed tank (tankvehicle) or demountable tank for the carriage of substances under this entry in accordance with Chapter 5.3 is not affected by the presence of an additive device or the additives contained therein.
