Types of tanks[edit]

- Waste water:

- Lube oil
General considerations[edit]
- Tanks are being considered as full when filled at 98% to allow room for expansion
- Low level alarm is at around 10%, high level at 95% and high high level at 98%
- Fuel and fresh water tanks require a breather line with the same diameter as the fill line to avoid spilling when filling with pressure.
Fuel tanks[edit]
- Fuel tanks require paint inside to avoid corrosion (only for full tanks corrosion is not an issue but this is only applicable for boats in 24h service)
Waste water tanks[edit]
- Waste water tanks require a breather line with the same diameter as the suction line to avoid collapsing during emptying. Instead of a large diameter breather line a valve can be applied.
- Deck suction connection conform ISO...
