4 r . f;• r r Dualoy 3000/L employs a simple -to - use adhesive joint. Matching tapers in bell and spigot make a firm interference fit that holds the joint together while the adhesive cures. Ameron's UL -listed Type 20 adhesive cures at normal tempera- tures without external heat sources and is suitable for reformulated fuels as well as all types of gasoline and alcohol -gasoline mixtures. LJ Full range of UL -listed sizes Dualoy 3000/1, is the only line of fiberglass pipe, fittings and adapters available in a full 2- through 6 -inch size range with UL listing. Ameron offers UL -listed components not only for typical small -diameter service station installations, but also for large -volume bulk fuel terminals, marinas and central fuel oil systems. 11 Adjacent lengths ofAmeron containment pipe may be nested together to provide easy access to primaryfittings. No -waste installation The Dualoy 3000/L joint is listed for direct burial, so contractors can use conventional parallel piping layouts instead of the inefficient series arrangements required by hose systems. Lacking a joint that can be buried, hose systems must make all runs with an uninter- rupted length of hose. These systems often waste a lot of costly material since it is not possible to rejoin and thus salvage short lengths. Dualoy piping has no such layout restrictions: wastage is minimal since nipples and short lengths are cut from scrap. The quick, room -temperature cure adhesive joint is one reason a two-man crew can put in more Dualoy 3000/L in 3 days than a three- man steel crew can in 4 days. Containment systems with benefits second to none Dualoy 3000/1, secondary contain- ment systems use rigid, heavy -wall fittings and real pipe to enclose the primary piping from the turbine sump to the dispenser pan. Ameron containment provides a continuous annular space between secondary and primary, making it possible to test the containment and monitor the product lines at any time. All Ameron containment pipe and fittings are manufactured from the same fiberglass -reinforced resins as the primary, so they accommodate the same broad range of fuels as the product lines. Since Dualoy 3000/1, containment is rigid, it is easy to construct lines that slope uniformly from dispenser to tank, thus eliminating the high spots and traps that arise when legs of a hose system cross. Dualoy 3000/1, containment pipe is so smooth on the outside that the contractor need only remove the surface gloss at the ends before After the primaryjoints have been inspected, Dualoy containment piping is joined with reducing couplings. installing the containment fittings: no special end preparation is required. Only Ameron can offer such easy installation. Easy access to primary Ameron containment piping employs pipe of two slightly different sizes in the secondary so that adjacent sections can be nested together to provide con- venient access to the primary joints during bonding, testing and visual inspection. No other rigid -wall containment system is faster to install. UL -listed for alcohol -based and reformulated fuels Ameron led the fiberglass pipe industry in obtaining UL listing for alcohol service in underground piping systems. Dualoy systems can be used to carry gasoline, diesel, alcohol blends, straight alcohols and today's reformulated fuels. Ameron specially fittings such as tank bungs, isolation adapters and sump penetration pieces combine fiberglass strength with the corrosion resistance of epoxy resins.
