• <br />• <br />• <br />• • <br />Fiberglass Turbine Enclosures provide access to critical <br />equipment and serve as a termination point for piping. <br />Our turbine enclosures are fiberglass — a proven material for long-term performance. <br />Compared to other unreinforced plastics and HDPE products, the rigid fiberglass <br />construction minimizes deformation during backfilling, to help assure liquid -tight seals <br />at fitting penetrations. <br />Turbine enclosures must be mounted on top of a secondary containment collar. Primary <br />piping is installed from the submersible pump to the dispenser. When the double-wall <br />piping is installed over the primary piping, the double-wall pipe connects to the turbine <br />enclosure using optional fittings, available from FCI or your petroleum equipment <br />distributor. In the event of an accidental spill from the primary piping, the spilled product <br />will drain into the turbine enclosure and accumulate in the secondary containment <br />collar. The secondary containment collar serves as a basin to allow early detection of <br />leaks of the submersible pump or the product piping. <br />When there is concern about the ingress of water at the collar/turbine enclosure seam, <br />the turbine enclosure should be sealed to the secondary containment collar at the jobsite. <br />Fluid Containment provides an alcohol compatible adhesive kit to make this connection. <br />Continuous electronic monitoring of the secondary containment collar should be used to <br />warn the operator of the accumulation of petroleum product before the liquid level rises <br />above the collar/turbine enclosure seam. <br />Turbine enclosures are available in 42" and 48" diameters with a minimum 2' length. <br />To accommodate deeper burial depths, longer turbine enclosures are available in <br />1' increments. The turbine enclosure can be trimmed at the jobsite to adjust for the <br />final burial depth. <br />Note: For high groundwater conditions at or above subgrade, a sealable or watertight <br />turbine enclosure should be used to prevent water infiltration. <br />When a tank will be equipped with more than one turbine enclosure or manway <br />riser, the tank may require special installation (deeper burial, additional anchor <br />straps, etc.). Contact Tank Technical Support for specific installation details. <br />ASYFIYXIAI IUN LAFLUWUN "Mt <br />Warning: a turbine enclosure constitutes a confined <br />space. Never enter a turbine enclosure without proper <br />training and OSHA -approved equipment. <br />
