It is essential that standard performance requirements are adhered to for minimizing the risks of fires, explosions, and hazards resulting from the transportation of liquids classified as flammable or combustible in tank vehicles. NFPA 385, Standard for Tank Vehicles for Flammable and Combustible Liquids, provides critical information and requirements for the design, construction, and safe operation of tank vehicles used in these potentially dangerous applications. NFPA 385 applies to tank trucks and trailers equivalent to US Department of Transportation (DOT) specifications as well as cargo tanks and their accessories. Content covers the following topics: Flammable and combustible liquids scope and classifications Design and construction of tank trucks and tank trailers used to transport stable flammable and combustible liquids Criteria for tank vehicles used to transport asphalt Specified provisions for delivery operators, including loading and unloading Auxiliary equipment such as internal combustion engines, electric generators and motors, pumps, and hoses Additional explanatory material, safety considerations, and references The 2022 edition of NFPA 385, Standard for Tank Vehicles for Flammable and Combustible Liquids, is your source for the most current industry knowledge and requirements. For nearly a century, this document has been a vital resource for tank vehicle fleet owners and operators and safety-enforcement officials. This latest edition brings the standard up to date with the latest criteria and features significant revisions that can affect your work. Changes include: Revised definitions of flammable liquid and combustible liquid Inclusion of flash point ranges with the liquid classes to be consistent with the 2021 edition of NFPA 30, Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code. Added setback distance of 25 feet for open flames and smoking to correspond to US DOT regulations. Access the information you and your team need to reduce risks and liabilities transporting flammable or combustible liquids in tank vehicles.<\/p>\n
