Ed66:Thanks I allways thought it was a ref. number or something. Does the BSE 100 mean it's a 100cu and does this mean I can do a 10% overfill? Thanks Ed

dannobee:REE= Rejection Elastic Expansion.
It's for the hydro tester. It's the maximum that the tank can expand after the hydro inspection. It'll deform a certain amount after the hydro, and this is the volume that it'll be bigger by and still pass.
Dash Riprock:So here is my example:
I have a Faber LP95. The REE number is 75. So according to the quote above, the tank cant expand more than 75.
75 what?
rjack321:REEs are shown in milliliters. Even in imperial tanks
