igned to avoid unauthorised or
accidental removal. The information on the plate fitted will depend on the
Standard the container is designed and manufactured to.
The plate should be fitted to a door or on containers with no doors in a Prominent
position,
Note: Aluminium rivets have been found to be unsuitable as a fixing method in
the offshore environment and should not be used.
Marking of the Plate
{Competent person should eich, engrave or stamp the plate immediately after
the test or examination is carried out, using characters not less than 4mm in
height. The presence of a valid plate indicates to personnel handling a container,
the existence of a certificate and its status.
Plate Markings and Testing - BS EN 12079 and DNV 2.7-1
A typical example of the format for a plate fitted to a container designed and
manufactured in accordance with BS EN 12079 is shown below:
