3.07 Acceptable Products - RED THREAD IIA Piping Secondary Containment Piping System as manufactured by NOV Fiber Glass Systems or engineered approved equal. SECTION 1 - Scope SECTION 4 - Installation and Testina 4.01 Training and Certification - All joints installed or constructed in the field shall be assembled by employees of the contractor who have been trained by the pipe manufacturer. The pipe manufacturer or their authorized representative shall train the contractor's employees in the proper joining and assembling procedures required for the project, including hands-on participation by the contractor's employees. Each bonder shall fabricate one pipe -to -pipe and one pipe -to -fitting joint that shall pass the minimum pressure test for the application as stated in Section 2.03 without leaking. Only bonders that have successfully completed the pressure test shall bond pipe and fittings. Each bonder shall carry a current manufacturer's proof of training card. 4.02 Pipe Installation - Pipe shall be installed as specified and indicated on the drawings. This section covers the use of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) pipe for fuel handling and fuel handling vent and vapor applications including gasoline, unleaded gasoline, gasoline/ alcohol mixtures, bio -diesel and diesel that require secondary containment. SECTION 2 - General Conditions 2.01 Coordination - Material furnished and work performed under this section shall be coordinated with the related work and equipment specified under other sections, i.e. Valves, Flexible Connectors, Equipment. 2.02 Governing Standards - Except as modified or supplemented herein, all materials and construction methods shall comply with and be tested in accordance with the following standards and test methods: The piping system shall be installed in accordance with the Standards and Test Methods: manufacturer's current published installation procedures. 4.03 Testing - A hydrostatic pressure test shall be conducted on the completed piping system. The piping system shall be subjected to 10 pressurization cycles from 0 psig to 1.5 times the design operating pressure as stated in Section 2.03.c. After the 10 cycles, the pressure shall be held on the system for a minimum of 1 hour and the line inspected for leaks. Test pressures shall not exceed 1.5 times the maximum rated pressure of the lowest rated element in the system. All pipe joints shall be water tight. All joints that are found to leak, by observation or during testing, shall be replaced by the contractor and retested. Should hydrostatic testing be impractical, testing with low pressure air or inert gas may be acceptable. Extreme caution should be used when testing with air. Follow all safety precautions and testing recommendations of the pipe manufacturer.

Operating Pressure b. Fluid Conveyed c. Test Pressure 2.04 Quality Assurance - Pipe manufacturer's quality program shall be in compliance with ISO 9001 and/or API Q1. 2.05 Delivery. Storage. and Handling - Pipe and fittings shall be protected from damage due to impact and point loading. Pipe shall be properly supported to avoid damage due to flexural strain. The contractor shall not allow dirt, debris or other extraneous materials to get into pipe and fittings. All factory machined areas shall be protected from sunlight until installed. 2.06 Acceptable Manufacturers - NOV Fiber Glass Systems, 501-568-4010, or approved equal.
