Results of '.S. EPA Standard Evaluatior <br />Automatic Tank Gauging System (A?GS) <br />lhis form tells whether the automatic tank gauging system (ATGS) described below complies with <br />the performance requirements of the federal underground storage tank regulation. The evaluation <br />was conducted by the equipment manufacturer or a consultant to the manufacturer according to <br />the U.S. EPA's "Standard Test Procedure for Evaluating Leak Detection Methods: Automatic <br />Tank Gauging Systems." The full evaluation report also includes a form describing the method and <br />a form summarizing the test data. <br />Tank owners using this leak detection system should keep this form on file to prove compliance <br />with the federal regulations. Tank owners should check with State and local agencies to make sure <br />this form satisfies their requirements. <br />ATGS Description <br />Name EASI Level -Tru <br />Version number <br />Vendor <br />721 Charcot Avenue <br />street a dress qoe <br />San Jose, CA 95131 (JdM) 954-9081 <br />M,,, 7io (0hone) <br />Evaluation Results <br />This ATGS, which declares a tank to be leaking when the measured leak rate exceeds the <br />threshold of 0.1gallon per hour, has a probability of false alarms [P(FA)] of 4. 6 %. <br />The corresponding probability of detection [P(D)] of a 0.20 gallon per hour leak is 95. 4 %. <br />The minimum water level (threshold) in the tank that the ATGS can detect is 0.896 inches. <br />The minimum change in water level that can be detected by the ATGS is <br />(provided that the water level is above the threshold). <br />Therefore, this ATGS 0 does ❑ does not meet the federal performance standards <br />established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (0.20 gallon per hour at P(D) of 95% <br />and P(FA) of 5%), and this ATGS El does ❑ does not meet the federal performance <br />standard of measuring water in the bottom of the tank to the nearest 1/8 inch. <br />023 inches <br />Test Conditions During Evaluation <br />The evaluation testing was conducted in a 10.000 gallon L111 steel ❑ fiberglass tank that <br />was 96 inches in diameter and 324 inches long. <br />The temperature difference between product added to fill the tank and product already in the <br />tank ranged from -5.7 °F to 6.1 OF, with a standard deviation of 4.5 F. <br />The tests were conducted with the tank product levels 50 and 90-95 % full. <br />The product used in the evaluation was diesel fuel <br />ATGS - Results Form <br />_- -- -1 lowac, itmdly notify of at once. <br />,re not „ noted, kindly notify w ,t onc.. <br />11 enclo,mv err not .. -m.n <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
