TS-LS300
Series
(Originally listed as
Campo/Miller LS300-120 PLUS AL, LS300-120
PLUS AL A/S, LS300-120 PLUS AL LSI)
(for Rigid, Flexible or Hybrid Combination of Rigid and Flexible Pipelines)
AUTOMATIC
ELECTRONIC LINE LEAK DETECTOR
| Certification |
Leak rate of 3.0 gph at 10 psi* with PD = 100% and PFA = 0%.
Leak rate of 0.2 gph at operating pressure with PD = 100% and PFA = 0%.
Leak rate of 0.1 gph at 1.5 times operating pressure* with PD = 100% and PFA
= 0%.
*Since leak
rate varies as a function of pressure, this leak rate and pressure were
certified using an equivalent leak rate and pressure, in accordance with an
acceptable protocol. |
| Leak
Threshold |
1.5 gph for leak
rate of 3.0 gph.
0.1 gph for leak rate of 0.2 gph.
0.05 gph for leak rate
of 0.1 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 fuels, fuel oil #4, waste oil, kerosene. |
| Specification |
System tests
pressurized rigid or flexible pipelines for all leak rates.
System tests pressurized hybrid combination of rigid and flexible pipelines for 3.0 gph leak rate only.
Tests are conducted at operating pressure. |
| Pipeline
Capacity |
For 3.0 gph leak
rate test:
Maximum of 396.6 gallons for rigid pipelines.
Maximum of 95.5 gallons for flexible pipelines.
Maximum of 492.1 gallons for hybrid combination of rigid and flexible pipelines.
(rigid portion cannot exceed 396.6 gallons and flexible portion cannot
exceed 95.5 gallons)
For 0.2 leak rate and 0.1 gph leak rate tests:
Maximum of 163 gallons for rigid pipelines (Example: 350 feet of 3 3/8
inch line).
Maximum of 39.5 gallons for flexible pipelines (Example: 430 feet of 1 ½
inch line). |
| Waiting
Time |
None between
delivery and testing.
None between dispensing and testing for leak rate of 3.0 gph.
Minimum of 3 hours between dispensing and testing for leak rate of 0.2
gph.
Minimum of 6 hours between dispensing and testing for leak rate of 0.1
gph. |
| Test
Period |
Response time is
10 minutes for leak rate of 3.0 gph.
Minimum of 25 minutes for leak rate of 0.2 gph.
Minimum of 34 minutes for leak rate of 0.1 gph.
Test data are acquired and recorded by a microprocessor. |
| System
Features |
Permanent
installation on pipeline.
Automatic testing of pipeline every 45 minutes for leak rate of 3.0
gph.
Automatic testing of pipeline when pump has been idle for 3 hours for leak
rate of 0.2 gph.
Automatic testing of pipeline when pump has been idle for 6 hours for leak
rate of 0.1 gph.
Preset threshold.
Triplicate testing to determine if pipeline is
leaking.
Pump shutdown, indicator light and alarm activation if leak is declared.
Pump control, line
pressure display, alarm and test logs. |
| Calibration |
System must be
checked annually and, if necessary, calibrated in accordance with
manufacturer's instructions. |
