(4) Reports must be retained for a period of at least five years and presented to the
inspection body appointed for the purposes of performing external inspections. They are to
be submitted to the Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik and the highest competent building
authority upon request.
(5) Where the results of inspections are unsatisfactory, the manufacturer must immediately
take the necessary steps in order to rectify the defect. Building products that do not meet the
requirements are to be handled in such a way that they cannot be mistaken for compliant
products. Once the defect has been rectified, the inspection in question must be repeated
without delay, in so far as is technically
feasible.
External inspection
(1) In every manufacturing plant, the plant and the factory production control must undergo
regular checks in the form of an external inspection, at least twice per year.
(2) An initial inspection of the containers must be carried out as part of the external
inspection. The tests specified in Section 2.4.2 must be carried out, as a minimum, during an
external inspection and initial
inspection.
In addition, samples may be taken for the purposes
of spot checks. Sampling and inspections shall fall under the responsibility of the approved
inspection body.
(3) The results of the certification and external inspection must be retained for at least five
years.
They are to be submitted by the certification body or the inspection body to the
Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik and the highest competent building authority upon
Provisions for planning, dimensioning and design

Equipping of the containers
(1) The containers should be equipped in accordance with the provisions of water law,
occupational health and safety regulations and building codes.
(2) Any devices with which they are equipped must be designed in such a way that
unacceptable excess or negative pressure and unacceptable stresses on the wall of the
container are excluded.
(3) A leak probe that is suitable for the intended use of the container is to be installed
between the inner container and the collection container in accordance with the requirements
set out under water law and in compliance with the general requirements set out in the State
building
codes.
(4) The containers must be equipped with a level
indicator.
Installation
General
provisions
(1) The containers are to be positioned vertically in rooms within buildings in such a way that
sufficient possibilities for fire-fighting are provided.
(2) The entire container base frame must be positioned on a horizontal,
smooth bearing plate or a carefully compacted and reinforced flat supporting surface.
(3) Containers must be positioned a sufficient distance from walls, other structural elements
and one another to enable them to be checked visually for fill
any
time.
(4) The containers must be protected against damage caused as a result of impacts by
vehicles,
e.g. by means of protected installation, impact protection or by installing them in a
suitable
area.
(5) The identification plate must be positioned on an accessible side of the container
The fill level indicator must be easy to
read.
Pipelines
(1) Ventilation and air extraction pipes must be sufficiently dimensioned and it must not be
possible to shut them off. The pipes and their fittings must be designed to remain leakproof
under excess pressure of 0.3
bar.
Outlets must be protected against rainwater
(2) It is only permissible for multiple containers to be connected to the same ventilation and
air extraction pipes if the liquids to be stored or their fumes will not form dangerous
compounds.
(3) When connecting the pipelines to the container nozzles, care must be taken to ensure
that no forces and no additional external loads are exerted on the containers that were not
foreseen during the planning phase.
Documentation and certificate of conformity
The company performing the work must provide confirmation, in the form of a certificate of
conformity, that the containers have been correctly positioned, installed and assembled as
described in the manufacturer's assembly instructions and in accordance with the provisions
of this decision, taking account of the provisions issued by the building authorities for items of
