Ile <br /> ® Anchoring <br /> Hold down straps, if required, shall be in- <br /> stalled in such a manner that they do not <br /> damage the Tank Jacket. Use Strap - <br /> Cushions to insure that the steel straps <br /> are cushioned and separated from the m <br /> t Tank Jacket. e <br /> 7 The method of anchorage selected shall <br /> j conform with state and local codes, <br /> whichever applies. <br /> O Final Testing <br /> After installation and before final backfill- <br /> ing to grade the Tank Jacket must be ' 3" <br /> . <br /> retested to assure no damage occurred .2 4. <br /> during installation. <br /> Perform an air pressure hold test to no 1 9 <br /> greater than 2 psi for a period long enough <br /> J vs. <br /> to determine there are no leaks by a drop <br /> in pressure. <br /> Note: For tanks shipped with a vacuum, it <br /> is not necessary to perform an in ground <br /> test as long as vacuum was maintained. <br /> i 10 Attaching Standpipe <br /> After all testing is completed and before <br /> final backfilling to grade attach the Tank <br /> Jacket Standpipe provided.The Standpipe <br /> can be cut to the appropriate length re- <br /> quired. Make sure that the cross fitting is <br /> glued to the Standpipe, with water resis- GLUE <br /> tant PVC cement. <br /> Make sure the cross fitting is capped if <br /> conduit is not installed. <br /> 11 Post-installation Testing <br /> Should an air-pressure hold test be re- <br /> quired to determine the containment in- i. <br /> tegrity of the Tank Jacket in future years <br /> then an Air-Pressure Bypass Adapter <br /> should be used to bypass the cross fitting <br /> conduit openings. This adapter is available - <br /> from Total Containment, Inc. '` <br />
