• serial number;
• estimated operational service life.

Information on technical specifications and parameters:

• operating temperature of the working medium, °C;
• design useful life;
• group of working medium (fluid group) – maximum mass of filling quantity, kg;
• calculation wall temperature, °C;
• name of the working medium;
• operating, calculation, test pressure, MPa (kgf / cm2);
• additive for compensation of corrosion (erosion), mm;
• volume of the tank, m3;
• empty weight, kg;
• information on nozzles, flanges, covers, fasteners (including quantity, dimensions, material);
• other information to ensure safe operation of the pressure vessel;
• information about safety devices, main valves, control gauges, safety valves (number, nominal diameter DN, calculation pressure PN, body material, installation position);
• information on the main parts (quantity, dimensions, material, welding specification);
• illustrations, diagrams, container drawings and other documents (summarised list of plant modifications, parts list, list of main dimensions of assemblies, etc.).
