2
Coating mass Shall not be less than 255 g/m EN 10327
4.2.2 For secondary containments made of steel sheets with coatings other than those of 4.2.1, the
materials shall be tested and fulfil the requirements according to Table 2.
Table 2 — Material requirements for steel sheets with other coatings
Property Requirement Test method
Tensile strength Shall not be less than 270 MPa EN 10002-1
Resistance to salt spray After 350 h, the corrosion area shall not Clause A.5
exceed 5 % of total external surface area.
4.3 Release of dangerous substances
Materials used in products shall not contain or release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum
permitted levels specified in a relevant European Standard for the material or permitted in the national
regulations of the country of destination.
4.4 Reaction to fire
4.4.1 Requirements
This characteristic shall be declared when subject to regulatory requirements, and may be declared otherwise.
The reaction to fire of products shall be determined and declared according to the provisions of 4.4.2 or 4.4.3.
For tanks with secondary containment, the reaction to fire classification of the tank alone shall be presented
together with the classification of the secondary containment alone.
4.4.2 Thermoplastics secondary containments
Secondary containments made from thermopplastics may either be declared as Class F without the need for
testing or the material shall be tested and classified according to EN 13501-1, mounted and tested in
conditions representative of the product’s intended use.
4.4.3 Steel secondary containments
Steel secondary coontainments shall be classified according to 4.4.2.1 or 4.4.2.2.
4.4.2.1 Secondary containments made from hot dip zinc/zinc-aluminium coated steel sheets may be
declared as Class A1 without testing. Steel coated with any coating system, where the coating system
contains ≤ 1,0 % by weight or volume (whichever is the more onerous) of homogeneously distributed organic
material, or has a gross calorific potential (PCS) ≤ 2,0 MJ/kg when tested according to EN ISO 1716, may also
be declared Class A1.
4.4.2.2 Secondary containments made from steel with coatings other than in 4.4.2.1 shall be tested and
classified according to the following:
for coating systems with a PCS ≤ 2,0 MJ/kg when tested according to EN ISO 1716, the product may be
classified A1,
7
---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
prEN 15724:2007 (E)
2
for coating systems with a PCS ≤ 2,0 MJ/m , the product may be classified A1 provided that the coating
system, when tested according to EN 13823 as below, meets the requirements for this class given in
EN 13501-1,
2
for coating systems with a PCS > 2,0 MJ/kg and ≤ 4,0 MJ/m when tested according to EN ISO 1716, the
complete coating system shall be tested according to EN 13823 on either the calcium silicate or fibre
cement substrates given in EN 13238. If the coating system meets the requirements of Class A2, the
product shall also be classified Class A2 with appropriate smoke and droplets sub-classification,
for any coating system other than those mentioned above, the coating shall be tested as described above
against the requirements of classes lower than A2 and the product shall be given the same class as the
coating system.
As an alternative to the above requirements, the coated product itself shall be tested and the classification
requirements of EN 13501-1 shall apply. For tests according to EN 13823, the product shall be mounted and
fixed in a manner representative of its intended end use.
Results obtained for a coating system included an organic layer apply to any other coating system containing
the same composition as the system tested but having less organic material and, therefore, a PCS which is
less than that tested. The PCS of the organic coating may be derived by calculation.
4.5 Electrostatic behaviour
Electrostatic behaviour is not a characteristic of the secondary containment or the material of the secondary
containment but a phenomenon resulting from some storage media and the filling procedure. Manufacturers
shall provide durable notices on all sizes of tanks with appropriate wording drawing the user's attention to
filling procedures according to CLC/TR 50404 for flammable liquids with a flash point < 55 °C.

withdrawal systems. All fittings shall be of known corrosion resistance to the liquids they are designed to come
in contact with.
5.4 Drainage
It shall be possible to drain any liquid from the secondary containment from above the minimum capacity level
of the secondary containment.
5.5 Inspection facilities
Where necessary, facilities for inspection of the tank/tank content shall be designed so that they shall not
affect the performance of the secondary containment.

Type 2: the secondary containment shall be able to contain 110 % of the brimful capacity of the inner tank.
5.7 Identification of leakage
