Basically for the Jerrycan 20L it says

30L or less, No spec when the conditions for Limited quantity are met.
Conditions of Limited Quantity:

B. each means of containment has a gross mass less than or equal to 30 kg and the dangerous goods

The line forming the diamond shaped mark must be black with a width of at least 2 mm.

The UN numbers and letters must be at least 6 mm high. The line, UN numbers and letters must be on a contrasting background.
