For information on compatibility for containment of fluids and reagents other than water, it is compulsory to ask for information and approval from the technical

office. For use with liquids other than water, remember to take into consideration any differences in specific weight.

* The tanks do not have Fire Brigade certification to contain diesel/gasoline fuel.

For use with liquids and fluids other than water, comply with local standards in force for environment and safety requirements. ELBI guarantees resistance of its

PLASTO tanks to liquids declared suitable (R) in the table.

Maintaining the characteristics of the liquids contained inside tanks should be checked by and are the responsibility of the user.
