Where should the capacity of a vehicle mounted LPG tank be displayed?

The capacity of a vehicle-mounted LPG tank is required to be displayed at the rear or side of the tank to ensure visibility and compliance with safety regulations. This location is strategic as it allows for quick identification by emergency responders and regulatory inspectors, enhancing safety during transportation and verification processes. Displaying the capacity on the side or rear ensures that it is readily accessible and visible, facilitating better communication of the tank's specifications to those who may need to assess it.

Positioning the capacity in such a visible area also helps to prevent confusion regarding the tank's limits and encourages adherence to maximum load capacities during operation. This practice is part of standard safety protocols to minimize the risks associated with handling LPG. By clearly marking the tank’s capacity where it can be seen, all stakeholders—including drivers, support personnel, and emergency services—can quickly confirm the tank’s capacity, promoting safer operations overall.
