Bulk Liquids & SurgePregunta 24 de 60
Why is understanding liquid density important before loading a tank?
a.Denser liquids require less outage than light liquids
b.A denser liquid weighs more, so you may load less to stay within weight limits
c.Density determines the color of the required placard
d.Denser liquids do not surge inside the tank
Explicación
Density tells you how much a given volume of the liquid weighs. A high-density liquid reaches legal weight limits with less volume, so you can only load part of the tank. Failing to account for density can leave you overweight or unbalanced.
