1 Scope This part of ISO 12917 specifies a method for the calibration of horizontal cylindrical tanks having diameters greater than 2 m by means of internal measurements using an electro-optical distance-ranging instrument, and for the subsequent compilation of tank-capacity tables. This method is known as the internal electro-optical distance-ranging (EODR) method. This part of ISO 12917 is applicable to tanks inclined by up to 10 % from the horizontal, provided a correction is applied for the measured tilt. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO 12917. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this part of ISO 12917 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below.

3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this part of ISO 12917, the terms and definitions given in ISO 1998, ISO 7507-1 and the following apply. 3.1 reference target point fixed point clearly marked on the inside surface of the tank shell or a prism mounted on a tripod or stadia 3.2 slope distance distance measured from the electro-optical distance-ranging instrument to a target point on any given course of the tank shell 3.3 target point one of a series of points on the inside surface of the tank shell to which the slope distance, vertical angles and horizontal angles are measured by use of the electro-optical ranging instrument 4 Precautions The general and safety precautions given in ISO 7507-1 shall apply to this part of ISO 12917. In addition, the laser beam fitted to the EODR instrument shall be operated in conformity with IEC 60825-1. The hazards, if any, in the area in which the calibration is to be carried out shall be assessed in accordance with IEC 60079-10. The equipment to be used in the calibration shall be certified as being safe for use in the area of operation. 5 Equipment 5.1 Electro-optical distance-ranging instrument 5.1.1 The angle-measuring part of the instrument shall have an angular graduation and resolution equal to or better than 0,002 gon. This part of the instrument shall have a repeatability equal to or better than ± 0,005 gon. 5.1.2 The distance-measuring part of the instrument, used for direct determination of distances, shall have a graduation and resolution equal to or better than ± 1 mm. This part of the instrument shall have a repeatability equal to or better than ± 2 mm.
5.2 Instrument mounting A tripod which is firm and stable. The legs of the tripod may be held firm, and steadied, by suitable devices such as magnetic bearers. 5.3 Laser-beam emitter A low-power laser beam complying with IEC 60825-1, which is either an integral part of the EODR instrument or a separate device. If the laser beam emitter is a separate device, it may be fitted with a fibre-optic light transmitter system and a theodolite telescope eyepiece connection, by which the laser beam may be transmitted through a theodolite, or such that it may be fitted to a theodolite with its axis co-incident to the axis of the theodolite. NOTE The laser-beam emitter is used to position target points on the tank shell.
