What is the capacity range of MC338 tanks?

MC338 tanks are specifically designed to transport cryogenic liquids, primarily liquefied natural gas and other gases at very low temperatures. The standard capacity range for these tanks is approximately 8,000 to 10,000 gallons. This range is tailored to ensure safe transport while accommodating regulatory standards and the physical properties of cryogenic materials.

The other options provided do not align with the typical capacities associated with MC338 tanks. For instance, a capacity of 6,000-7,000 gallons is less than the standard range, while 11,500-17,500 gallons exceeds the typical design specifications. Furthermore, a range of 4,000-45,000 gallons is too broad and does not reflect the specific design parameters for an MC338 tank. Understanding these specifications is crucial for professionals handling hazardous materials, particularly within the context of safety and compliance regulations in the transportation of cryogenic substances.
