Noteltoentry SeeFigures5and6.
3.6
volume
total space inside the container when the lid is closed
3.7
nominal volume capacity volume stated by the manufacturer
Note Ito entry: See Table I without tolerances.
Note 2 to entry: The English term capacity and the French term capadté” are translated in the German version by the term ‘Nennvolu men”.
3.8
nominal mass
mass, which is calculated as given in Clause 6
3.9
total permissible mass
mass of the container plus the nominal load
3.10
functional and safety dimension
essential dimensions which ensure the functionality and interchangeability of the container with the compatible lifting device and which are necessary for the operator’s safety and health
4 Volumes
This part of EN 840 IdentIfies the two classes of containers:
— Class I small size (nominal volume up to 1 050 I);
— Class II – large size (nominal volume between 1 050 land 1 700 I).
Within the two above•mentioned classes of containers the following volumes are identified: 7501. 1 000 I, 1 300 I, 1 400 I, 1 500 I, 1 6001 and 1 700 I. Nominal volumes different from those referenced can be used by agreement between user and manufacturer. The tolerance of the volumes shall be ± 5% maximum measured according to EN 840-5.
