This document, together with EN 12079-1:2006, supersedes EN 12079:1999. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.



EN 12079-3:2006 (E) 5 1 Scope This part of EN 12079 specifies requirements for the periodic inspection, examination and testing of offshore freight and service containers, built in accordance with EN 12079-1, with maximum gross mass not exceeding 25000 kg and their associated lifting sets, intended for repeated use to, from and between offshore installations and ships. Inspection requirements following damage and repair of offshore containers are also included. Other parts of the standard are: EN 12079-1, Offshore containers and associated lifting sets - Part 1: Offshore container – Design, manufacture and marking
EN 12079-2, Offshore containers and associated lifting sets - Part 2: Lifting sets – Design, manufacture and marking Guidance as to the knowledge and experience required by those responsible for carrying out periodic inspection and testing is given in Annex A 'Recommended knowledge and experience of staff responsible for inspection of offshore containers'. Guidance on pre-trip inspections is given in Annex B ' Recommended knowledge and experience of staff responsible for inspection of lifting sets intended for use with offshore containers'.

NOTE 1 P = R - T



EN 12079-3:2006 (E) 7 NOTE 2 R, T and P are, by definition, in units of mass, kilograms (kg). Where design requirements are based on the gravitational forces derived from these values, those forces are indicated thus: Rg, Tg and Pg the units of which are in newtons or multiples thereof. 5 Container inspection plate 5.1 General Containers shall be fitted with a plate carrying the information specified in 5.2. The plate shall be made of corrosion resistant material securely attached externally in a manner designed to avoid unauthorized or accidental removal. The plates shall be fitted to a door, or, on containers with no doors, in a prominent position. Aluminium rivets have been found to be unsuitable as a fixing method in the offshore environment and shall not be used. The information on the plate shall be in the English language (see Note). The text shall be permanently and legibly marked on the plates in characters not less than 4 mm high. NOTE Provision for an additional language may be made. 5.2 Contents of inspection plate The plate shall be headed “OFFSHORE CONTAINER INSPECTION PLATE - EN 12079-3: 2006" The plate shall contain the following information: a) owner’s container number; b) owner’s name; c) date of last inspection. The date of last inspection shall be the date on which the most recent inspection was carried out to the satisfaction of the competent person. To avoid confusion, the plate shall not carry the date of the next inspection. Provision shall be made on the plate to facilitate permanent marking to record a minimum of nine inspections. NOTE 1 For marking of the inspection plate see Clause 10. NOTE 2 A recommended format for the plate is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 — Example of Inspection Plate 6 Schedule of periodic inspection/ examination and test — containers Containers and lifting sets shall be periodically inspected, examined and if necessary tested in accordance with the schedule listed in Table 1, by an inspection body meeting the requirements of EN ISO/IEC 17020. NOTE 1 Guidance as to the recommended knowledge and experience of staff responsible for inspections for the purposes of EN ISO/IEC 17020 is given in Annex A. When the schedule includes a lifting test, the non-destructive examination and visual inspection shall both be carried out after the lifting test. NOTE 2 The inspection body may require other or additional inspections, examinations and or tests.

NOTE This total mass may be obtained by putting in an internal test mass of 2,5 R-T. The test masses/test load shall normally be evenly distributed inside the container. If it is not possible to place the entire test mass inside the container, some of it may be placed outside or under the container, provided that this
