Adopt the safest practices for storing, handling, and using
flammable and combustible liquids!
|
Regarded as law throughout the U.S. and enforceable under
OSHA, NFPA 30 is the industry's most comprehensive
source for safety rules on flammable and combustible liquids.
It provides:
- Information on proper siting of bulk storage tanks, including
separations from property lines and tank-to-tank spacing
- Design requirements for spill control, and normal and
emergency relief vents
- Fire protection requirements for container storage in
storage cabinets, and inside rooms and warehouses--including
spill containment and drainage and design criteria for fire
protection systems
- Fire safety requirements for proper handling and use of
liquids
|

The new 2000 edition also includes:
- Requirements for protected tanks and tanks in vaults
- Expanded fire protection design criteria for flammable liquids
warehouses, including new criteria for rigid non-metallic intermediate
bulk containers (IBCs)
- A new section on fire protection for recirculating fluid heat
transfer systems
- Consolidated requirements dealing with electrical systems and
electrical equipment
It's invaluable for design engineers, enforcing officials, fire inspectors,
insurers, and everyone who deals with flammable and combustible liquids!
