0 10 Glossary Connector Elbows Junction Tees A brass elbow fitting which is designed to connect two flexible pipe sections. Installed in junction type Dispenser Sumps. Typically used in pressure piping Typically used for sharp 90' piping turns. This fitting should be Installed within systems which are routed In series. This tee has two threaded openings for a containment sump. coupling connections and one threaded opening for riser pipe connections. Connector Fitting LDS (Leak Detection System) A brass filling designed to adept one coupled flexible pipe section to another An electronic monitoring system that will detect the presence of hydrocarbon coupled flexible pipe section. Typically used for long piping runs and installed or water within containment sumps. within an In-line Piping Sump. Liquid Monitoring System Crossover Supports Used to continuously monitor the Interstitial space of the Environ flexible Used to separate GeoFlex Pipe runs at all crossover intersections, providing piping. sufficient support to prevent the upper pipe from deforming the lower after backfill. Male Adapters A brass fitting designed to adapt from a coupled flexible pipe section to a 2' Connector Tees female threaded standard pipe fitting. Typically used to connect a 2' tank Designed to connect three flexible pipe sections. Typically used for split fitting or a pumps plumbing tree to a flexible supply line inside the Tank piping runs leading to remote dispensers and installed within an In-line Piping Sump. Sump. Connector Tubes These tube assemblies interconnect two Test Boots inside the junction type Dispenser Sumps. Used to mule the GeoFlex I and /l interstitial space of one pipe section around the Junction Tee Fitting to the interstitial space of the next pipe section. Used primarily in pressure piping systems. Deep Dispenser Sumps Deep containers for under dispenser containment. Used primarily for pressure piping systems which are routed in series and require piping fall to one or more containment sumps. They provide convenient access to, and secondary containment of, the pipe connections. Directional Elbows Installed inside Tank Sumps and connected to either single or dual adapters, providing a multi -directional transition for the flexible piping line. Dual Adapters A brass filling designed to adapt one 2' line to two 1-112' flexible piping lines and typically used for assembly of a dual outlet plumbing tree. In this application the Directional Elbow Fittings are usually connected to provide multi -directional routing. if , Extension Cylinder This coupling cylinder connects to the Coupling Machine to permit in -sump coupling of the flexible piping. Female Adapters A brass fitting designed to adapt from a coupled flexible pipe section to a 2' Pipe nipple or street elbow fitting. Typically used to connect a 2' tank fitting or a pumps plumbing tree to a flexible supply line inside the Tank Sump. Flexible Entry Boots These rubber compression type boots are installed Into the wall of containment sumps to seal all pipe and conduit entries. GeoFlex Piping A flexible underground piping used for use transmission of flammable and other types of hazardous liquids in both pressure and suction type systems. In-line Piping Sumps In -Line Piping Sumps are used for long piping runs which require pipe sections be connected together. This sump provides surface access and secondary containment for these plumbing connections. May also be used to contain other piping components. Jacket Cutter This hand loot is used to strip a 2' length of the containment jacket from the end of the GeoFlex Poe section, so that the Pipe Coupling can be installed. Pipe Couplings Designed specifically for GeoFlex Piping. They are internally expanded to the ends of the flexible pipe section for plumbing attachments. Product Offsets Used with some model dispensers which require pipe entry locations significantly off center. The offset fitting permits using standard dispenser sumps to accommodate these applications. Shallow Dispenser Sumps Shallow containers for under dispenser containment. Recommended for all suction type piping systems and pressure piping systems using the Liquid Interstitial Monitoring System. They provide convenient access to, and secondary containment of, the pipe connections. Ak Stabilizer Bar Used in sumps and pans to stabilize a shear valve, break -away valve or riser pipe I. Swivel Wrench This hex type wrench is designed to secure and tighten the Pipe Couplings to either the GeoFlex fittings or adapters. Tank Sumps Tank Sumps are used at the beginning of the GeoFlex Piping System . Installed to the lop of the tank, they provide surface access to a tank's pump, fittings and other piping connections. They also serve as a means of secondary containment and leak collection. Terminating Elbows Installed in terminating type Dispenser Sumps. Used in both pressure and suction piping systems. This elbow fitting has one threaded opening for coupling connections and one threaded opening for riser pipe connections. Test Boots These rubber boots are used to provide a means of connecting the Test Tubes and Connector Tubes to the GeoFlex I and 11 Piping interstitial space for integrity testing and continuous monitoring. These boots are fitted with two stainless band clamps for a liquid tight seal. Test Ceps These threaded caps are fitted with a Teflon seal and have a 1/4' opening in the end for attachment of an air gauge or valve slam. Used to air test individual pipe sections. Test Tubes Connected to Test Boots which are installed at the beginning and end of a GeoFlex I and If line. Used to test or continuously monitor the interstitial space of the entire piping line and used for both pressure and suction piping systems. AIL
