Acceptable Biodiesel Leak Detection Equipment

Unless specifically indicated on the LG 113 individual data sheets, performance with alternative fuels has not been demonstrated with the following exception:

Biodiesel B6 through B20 meeting ASTM D7467 and biodiesel B100 meeting ASTM D6751 may be used with all equipment listed for diesel whether or not these alternative fuels are included on individual data sheets. This exception does not apply to leak detection test methods using:

  • Out-of-Tank Product Detection (Vapor Phase) for B6-B20 and B100
  • Out-of-Tank Product Detection (Liquid Phase) for B100
  • Tracer-based test methods for B100

For these methods, individual data sheets will have to be referenced to determine applicability.
