ADR vehicle designation FL
Vehicle for flammable liquids (flash point ≤ 60 °C), flammable gases or UN 2015 > 60 % in tanks above set sizes.
An FL vehicle is one that falls under any of four limbs, listed under conditions. Fixed or demountable tank limits are capacity above 1 m³; tank-containers, portable tanks or MEGCs count when an individual capacity is above 3 m³. FL vehicles need ADR approval and a certificate of approval (9.1.2, 9.1.3).
