Tank hydro test dates

[evoG9]

Hi all. I have a tank that needs a re-test, I think it has both DOT AND PI markings, but just want to check. See pictures.

Does that mean I can get it re-tested in the UK fine?

From the dates, does that mean the death date is 2023? So I'm assuming the test will only go to the death date and not 5 years?

Thanks

Yes it's UK legal and yes the death date is may 2023 no matter how many years test it may have on it, if you get it tested now it's only good for 18 months.

It's actually a Tri certified bottle in that it has Pi, DOT and TC, Pi being Europe, DOT being USA and TC being Canada.

Correct - the Pi mark means you’re good for here in the UK, and the 2008 born date gives you until 2023, so you can have it hydro tested but it will expire on the death date in 2023

Interesting. Shame it’s only got a short time left, but I haven’t played for about 8 years, although it is a heavy tank! Thanks for the help.
