ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a tank designed to contain a liquefied gas, constituted by the tank proper, by a feedpipe, and by a valve closing off said feedpipe.
Said tank is provided with a heat-responsive device controlling the valve, whose temperature responsive element is placed inside the tank, close to a preset filling level and whose effect is to place the valve in a configuration where the feedpipe is completely closed off, when the pre-set filling level is reached, and in a configuration where the feedpipe is open, when the pre-set filling level is not reached.
The invention finds an application in methane tankers where the tanks are filled to the top.
