EVO 600 and EVO 6000 with FMP-LL3 Magnetostrictive Probe
Continuous In-Tank Leak Detection Method (Continuous Automatic Tank Gauging)
| Certification | Leak rate of 0.1 gph with PD = 95.6% and PFA = 4.4%. |
|---|---|
| Leak Threshold | 0.05 gph A tank system should not be declared tight if the test results indicate a loss or gain that exceeds this threshold. A message printed for the operator if this threshold is exceeded. |
| Applicability | Gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel. California Code of Regulations require a written statement of compatibility for systems containing products other than those used in this evaluation. |
| Tank Capacity | Maximum of 20,650 gallons. Tank must be at least 14% full. |
| Waiting Time | 6 hours 4 minutes. |
| Test Period | Data collection time is between 3 hours 13 minutes and 6 hours. Average collection time is 4 hours 17 minutes. Maximum test time is 12 hours 4 minutes. Data sampling frequency is at least once per minute. |
| Temperature | Average for product is determined by a minimum of 5 thermistors. |
| Water Sensor | Must be used to detect water ingress. Minimum detectable water level in the tank is 0.940 inch. Minimum detectable change in water level is 0.012 inch. |
| Calibration | Thermistors and probe must be checked and, if necessary, calibrated in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. |
| Comments | System reports a result of “pass” or “fail”. Tests only the portion of the tank containing product. As product level is lowered, the leak rate in a leaking tank decreases (due to lower head pressure). Consistent testing at low levels could allow a leak to remain undetected. EPA leak detection regulations require testing of the portion of the tank system which routinely contains product. |
