IMO Type 5 is associated with which intermodal pressure range?

• A. 100-500 psi
• B. 25.4-100 psi
• C. 14.5-25.4 psi
• D. 23.5+ psi -130° or lower

Answer: (A)

Intermodal pressure ratings classify packaging by the internal pressure a container is designed to withstand during transport. For IMO Type 5, that design pressure falls in the 100 to 500 psi range, reflecting its high‑pressure service. This is why it’s the best choice: it matches the high-pressure category the type is defined to handle. The other pressure ranges correspond to different packaging types or service conditions (for example, cryogenic or lower‑pressure systems), which is why they don’t apply to Type 5.
