12. USE

12.1. OPERATING CONDITIONS

Operations (fills, transfers) must be carried out in compliance with the following requirements:
– For operations only choose open, unconfined places, external to buildings, and preclude the presence to unauthorised persons.
– A complete ban on smoking and open flames near the area of operation must be applied. Mobile phones must be switched off.
– In case of any oil spill to the ground during the operations, dab with inert absorbents (e.g. sand, rags and not sawdust), to be collected
with buckets or anti-spark dustpans. the product collected will be subsequently disposed of in appropriate containers in accordance
with current waste disposal regulations (see chap. 16).
– Upon completion, any residue of diesel on the CArrytANk
objects used for cleaning.
Pay close attention to any spills so that they cannot reach sewer manholes, in which dangerous pockets of
flammable vapour may form, resulting in risk of bursting
12.2. FILLING
Before filling, the user must verify that the CARRYTANK
make sure, after filling took place, that the filling unit (2) is tightened.
After filling the CARRYTANK
®
during transport, leakage of product or emission of vapours into the atmosphere are anyway prevented. In the case of gas oil UN 1202, the
highest transportable quantity are indicated in the following table.
With filling temperature of 15°C and max transport temperature 55° C, the maximum filling % admitted is limited to 94%.
However, where the difference between filling and transport temperature is estimated at less than 35° C, the filling percentage may be
increased, but may not in any case exceed 98% (Chap. 4.1.1.4 ADr).
the maximum quantities of fuel transported are designated, for each model of fuel tank, in the following table:
Model Actual geometric

CArrytANk 330 321
CArrytANk 400 400
CARRYTANK 400+50 400+45
CARRYTANK 440 446
the more the container is protected from extreme temperatures during transport (eg. transport in covered or sheeted containers), the
higher the percentage of usable fill, and thus the amount of gas oil transported.
Failure to respect the above precaution can lead to dispersion of dangerous material in transit, or emission of flammable vapours, which,
besides constituting serious violations of environmental and traffic regulations, can represent danger regarding the formation of potentially
explosive atmosphere or fire triggers.
Avoid in any case of overfilling the tank: always leave an adequate minimum vacuum that allows the free liquid
expansion
12.3. EMPTYING
Before you start emptying it is appropriate to provide a good electrical connection (equipotential) between the metal frame of the transfer
unit and the other metal container in which you want to dump the fuel, using, for example, a cable with pliers.
For emptying, do following operations sequentially, for ease of understanding, it is proposed for each operation the reference in () to the
affected component as per key at § 9.2.
– Check that the main switch (6) of the electric pump (5) is switched to "O".
– Enable the power line connecting the clamps (10) to the terminals of the battery, respecting the polarities (red +, black-), or, in case of
vehicular connection (§ 11.4.6), verify that the circuit breaker "D" is active (open circuit) and then connect the connector "C" and only
after this turn the circuit breaker "D" off.
– Unroll the hose (8) and insert the gun (9) in the destination tank, after locking the lever in the "open" position.
– Start the electric pump by placing the switch (7) to "I"
– Proceed with transferring within max. 2 minutes after the switch on of the electric pump
– Monitor the achievement of the desired degree of filling, or wait for the overflow stop in case of automatic gun.
After completing emptying, perform the operations described in sequence:
– switch off the main switch (6) on the pump body (pos. "0").
– Drain liquid still pressing down for a few moments the gun handle (9), in order to discharge any residual pressure in the discharge pipe.
– Store the hose (8) properly rolled in the position shown in the photo (see chap. 20), placing the gun (9) into the recessed area of the tank.
– Disconnect the power supply by disconnecting the clamps (10) from the terminals of the battery, or in case of vehicular connection (§
11.4.6), break the circuit through the "D" circuit breaker and only after this disconnect the connector "C".
