datasheet.
Vendor to X07-D-0335 and X07-D-0336 Surge tank shall contain:
Diesel / Kerosene / Gasoline PG91/PG95 as alternative product.

Specific gravity range for these prducts are between : (0.737 -
086484, 086485, 086483) multiple product is mentioned
0.870)
including kerosene and internal painting spec. is APCS
2A. However as per SAES-H-001, for kerosene product, it
shall be APCA-2D. we have followed your datasheet for
painting spec. APCS 2A.
Vendor shall comply and consider
specific gravity range (0.737-0.870).
17-Dec-17
For painting system, APCS-2D is
accepted.
Please note that as per SAES-H-001,
For painting system, APCS-2D, the
whole tank must be 100% coated from
inside. Now, as per datasheet for
internal floating roof tanks (VE-
18-Dec-17 086484, 086485, 086483) it is Open
mentioned as supported cone roof.
This has to be revised to self
supported roof as per cl. 5.10.2.10 of
32-SAMSS-005. We would suggest to
revise your datasheets considering
above comments and others (if any).

This will have price impact.

As per datasheet doc. No. VE-086485_Rev.B
