LS300, LS300 N/C, LS300-120, LS300-120 XLC, LS300-120 PLUS, LS300-120 PLUS A/S

Automatic Electronic Line Leak Detector

Certification Leak rate of 3.0 gph at 10 psi* with PD = 96.2% 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 2.36 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.
Other liquids may be tested after consultation with the manufacturer.
Specification System tests pressurized fiberglass and steel pipelines.
Tests are conducted at operating pressure.
Pipeline Capacity Maximum of 35.36 gallons.
Waiting Time None between delivery and testing.
None between dispensing and testing.
Test Period Response time is 10 seconds for LS300, LS300 N/C.
Response time is 10 seconds, but can be adjusted between 10 seconds and 2 minutes, 30 seconds depending on the bulk modulus* of the piping system for LS300-120, LS300-120 XLC, LS300-120 PLUS, LS300-120 PLUS A/S.
Test data are acquired and recorded by a microprocessor.
*See glossary.
System Features Permanent installation on pipeline.
Automatic testing of pipeline.
Preset leak threshold.
Single leak test to determine if pipeline is leaking.
Pump shutdown, indicator light and alarm activation if leak is declared.
Calibration Manufacturer recommends a weekly self check, activated by the operator, and a full functional test every 30 days, estimated to take 5 minutes to perform for LS300, LS300 N/C, LS300-120, LS300-120 XLC.
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.
