In underground fuel systems, DualoyO 3000/L fiberglass 1 and fittings give you some things 1 other products steel, competing 1 and thermoplastics ualoy 3000/1, from Ameron is the best UL -listed piping available for underground fuel system construction and rehabilitation. Manufactured from chemically inert materials, Dualoy 3000/1, fiberglass pipe and fittings deliver the long-term protection today's stations require. On the outside, Dualoy systems resist external corrosion far better than cathodically protected steel. On the inside, no composite piping material can surpass the impermeability and chemical resistance of Dualoy 3000/L. Ameron Dualoy 3000/L delivers features and performance no other UL -listed piping system can offer. At the heart of the pipe is an impermeable and holiday -free inner liner that serves as an added layer of protection inside the structural pipe wall. Competitive fiberglass pipe has no liner. Galvanized steel pipe can descale when exposed to modern no -lead Thousands of steel service station fuel - handling systems throughout the U.S. have reached the end of their service lifetimes. An API survey has shown that unprotected steel tanks and piping account for 94% of all leaks, and nearly one-third of these leaks can be traced to the piping itself. When you rehabilitate or build new, specify and install the piping that has proven inself to be the most reliable material to replace steel and to handle tomorrow's reformulated fuels. Dualoy 3000/L fiberglass piping systems from Ameron. Dualoy 3000/L provides secondary containment piping in a tank complex designed to store a variety ofgas turbine fuels. Seen here is the primary pipingduring initial layout. fuels, while thermoplastic materials have yet to prove them- selves against the full range of today's fuels. The inert Dualoy liner remains intact throughout the service life of the system and does not soften and swell when exposed to alcohol -based and reformulated fuels. Dualoy piping protects downstream strainers and pumps while maintaining product purity. Light in weight and easy to handle, Dualoy 3000/L has a simple, threadless adhesive joint that installs in less than half the time needed for steel. The result is lower initial installed cost and a maintenance -free corrosion - resistant system with the installation convenience of a jointed system. Inert to external corrosion Dualoy 3000/L piping is electrically nonconductive and never requires cathodic protection. Single-wall and containment systems alike are immune to external corrosion from stray current electrolysis and cathodic interference. They are unaffected by alkaline or acidic soil conditions. Installation, inspection and main- tenance of sacrificial anodes and costly impressed -current systems are permanently eliminated.
