(for Flexible Pipelines)
Automatic Mechanical Line Leak Detector
| Certification | Leak rate of 3.0 gph with PD = 100% and PFA = 0%. |
|---|---|
| Leak Threshold | 2.0 gph. A pipeline system should not be declared tight if the test result indicates a loss that equals or exceeds this threshold. |
| Applicability | Gasoline, diesel, aviation fuel. Other liquids may be tested after consultation with the manufacturer. |
| Specification | System tests pressurized flexible pipelines. Tests are conducted at operating pressure. |
| Pipeline Capacity | Maximum of 49.6 gallons. |
| Waiting Time | None between delivery and testing. None between dispensing and testing |
| Test Period | Average response time is 3 minutes. |
| System Features | Permanent installation on pipeline. Automatic testing of pipeline. Preset threshold. Single test to determine if pipeline is leaking. Restricted flow to dispenser if leak is declared. |
| Calibration | Equipment must be checked annually for capability of detecting a line leak of 3.0 gph and, if necessary, calibrated in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. |
| Comments | Enviroflex pipeline with a bulk modulus* of 1,280 was used during evaluation. |
