INCON TS-STS Sump Test System
SECONDARY AND SPILL CONTAINMENT TEST METHOD
| Certification |
Minimum Level Change (MLC) of 0.00192
inch in 15 minutes with PD = 95%
Please be aware that the authority having jurisdiction in your particular state, territory, tribe or municipality may have set a minimum detectable leak rate for Secondary and Spill Containment Test Methods.
|
| Leak
Threshold |
0.0020 inch/15min (0.008
inch/hour).
A containment vessel should not be declared tight if the test result
indicates a loss or gain that equals or exceeds this threshold.
|
| Applicability |
Water, water-based test
solution.
|
| Specification |
System tests wetted portion of
turbine, transition and dispenser containment sumps, and spill buckets after
test liquid is temporarily added above level of all containment vessel
penetration holes, as in accordance with PEI RP-1200 requirements.
Uses a magnetostrictive probe to measure rise or drop of liquid level.
|
| Waiting
Time |
Water level readings must
stabilize (due to distortion of sumps and wave action) and temperature in
sump must be close to equilibrium prior to beginning test. |
| Test
Period |
15 minutes. |
| System
Features |
Up to 4 sumps can be tested at
the same time. |
| Calibration |
No calibration is required. |
|
Comments |
Operates similar to an
automatic tank gauge, but is portable.
Probe must be suspended as described in the installation manual to keep the
probe as vertical as possible.
Probe should be adjusted so there is minimal contact between the rod and the
float.
The sump water level can be displayed at any time.
A printout of the initial and final levels is provided automatically at the
conclusion of the test.
Results may be converted to gal/hr using beginning and ending of test
surface area of liquid in test vessel. |
