Before installing leak detector, review the application section in leak detector manual #5191 for limitations or restrictions on usage. This instruction sheet should be kept with the end user of the leak detector for reference. When using 117-182 Big -Flo Diaphragm Valve, refer to installation instructions #042-108-1 included with the valve. When using an FXV model leak detector with adapter housing #038-072-5, refer to installation instructions #041-415-1 included with the housing. FXV Leak Detectors are for use with all UL -Listed 4 -inch Red Jacket models containing a "P" or "AG" prefix; FE Petro UL -Listed 4 -inch "STP" models; Tokheim UL -Listed 4 -inch models — 585A-34 and 585A-150. Tampering with the screws or seals on this leak detector may inhibit operation and will void warranty. This Red Jacket leak detector is to be installed into the two-inch threaded tapping on top of the Red Jacket submersible pump. The FXDV models are specially designed for use with diesel fuel and should be used in diesel applications to provide the appropriate operating characteristics. For proper installation, the following steps should be followed in sequence: T DO NOT wire submersible pumps to run continuously. Red Jacket line leak detectors will not perform leak tests on pumping systems that run continuously. ALL AIR MUST BE OUT OF THE SYSTEM FOR THE LEAK DETECTOR TO WORK PROPERLY. Before installing leak detector in the pump, fill the system with product by running the pump and delivering product from each dispenser (starting with the farthest from the pump and working to the pump) until all air is removed from system. Certain regulatory bodies require that leak detectors remain in the system after the lines have been installed. The lines may be purged of air by back -pressuring the lines with an inert rias, such as helium or nitrogen. to a pressure of 25 psi (172 kPa). This may be done at the impact valve under the dispenser. When this pressure has been reached. the leak detector will be in the open position. By turning on the pump and gradually bleeding the gas from the line through a valve at the impact valve of the farthest dispenser, the line may be purged of air. Disconnect power to the submersible pump and relieve pressure before installing or removing petroleum equipment. 1. Disconnect power to pump at the load center. Tag or lock out the breaker to avoid the pump being turned on accidentally. 2. Remove the two-inch plug from the top of the Red Jacket pump. If the two-inch plug is found to be so tight that it cannot be removed, the submersible should be removed from the tank and placed in a vise. Remove the functional element assembly next to the pipe plug. The plug should then come out readily if a large pipe wrench is used. Replace functional element assembly securely and replace the pump in the tank. (See Step 3 before replacing pump). 3. Examine straight bore below two-inch thread for corrosion roughness. If found to be rough, smooth with tine emery paper. 4. Apply UL -Classified non-toxic pipe thread sealant to the two-inch threads on the detector. Lubricate O-ring on the leak detector. 5. Screw the leak detector into the pump. Tighten with a wrench (top hex is 1-1/4 inch). 6. Installation of vent tube and snap tap connectors. For FXI V models a. Remove 1/4 -inch pipe plug from tank test port in the Packer (on 6 -inch Big -Flo applications. remove the 1/4 -inch pipe plug from the riser/flange assembly). b. Apply a UL -classified non-toxic pipe thread sealant to the threads of the 1/4 -inch NPT straight vent tube fitting and install in tank test port of the packer. On 6 -inch Big -Flo applications, the 1/4 -inch NPT straight vent tube fitting may be installed into the riser/flange assembly. c. Apply a UL -classified non-toxic pipe thread sealant to the threads of the 1/4 -inch NPT 90 - degree vent tube fitting and install in the leak detector vent opening in the cap of the leak detector. d. Install the vent tubing into both fittings and tighten per instructions on package.
