Phil-Tite Protocol for 5 GO Capacity (Volume) Testing for th 00 Series Spill Collector 2. When 5 gallons has been reached in the Prover, and the product/water has L settled, open the bottom drain valve with hose and drain the load (contents) of the Prover into the spill collector. Be careful not to splash or allow the product/water to go outside the spill collector. When the Prover stops draining, the spill collector and stainless steel sleeve should contain the load and not be overflowing. Record the test results on the testing worksheet. • A spill collector and stainless steel sleeve that contains the load and does not overflow has passed the 5 gallon capacity test. The fact that more product/water (in excess of 5 gallons) could be added is not a factor of this test and only provides positive proof that this spill collector holding capacity is in excess of 5 gallons. • Using a hand pump or other appropriate equipment remove the water from the spill collector and properly contain or dispose of the water per local code, and state regulations. Product can be drained back into the tank after the expansion plug has been removed. • Remove the expansion plug, re -install the black debris bucket and dust cap (fill cap). Place the cast iron lid with "O" Ring into the top of the stainless steel sleeve. • Complete the testing worksheet and send a copy to the local CUPA. Troubleshooting Failed Capacity (Volume) Test Possible Cause — Black Spill Collector not set correctly in the stainless steel sleeve. • Check the depth of the black spill bucket inside the stainless steel sleeve. With a tape measure, measure 4 to 6 places around the circumstance of the stainless steel sleeve from the top of the black spill bucket to the top of the stainless steel sleeve at finish grade or top of the manway cover. This measurement should be a minimum of 4" as shown in CARB Executive Order VR -101-X, Exhibit 2, Figure 2A and 2B. Note: Stated in Figures 2A and 2B - "To achieve 5 gallons capacity - 4" min". This is not an average, but a minimum measurement, more will achieve greater capacity. This measurement (4" min.) assumes that the EBW, OPW or Morrison Dust Cap and the black Debris Bucket are REMOVED. If in doubt, lower the black spill collector. Preferred black spill bucket depth is 4'/2" below the top of the stainless steel sleeve or finish grade - Using Phil-Tite's 85100F & 85101 Spill Collector installation instructions with the Styrofoam spacer supplied with each spill collector shipped the installed depth of the black spill bucket should be from 4 7/16" to 4 '/2" below the top of the stainless steel sleeve or finish grade. Check the depth of the black spill collector using the Styrofoam spacer. The top of the spacer must be at or below the rim/lip of the stainless steel sleeve as shown on the label on the spacer. Use a tape measure to verify your measurements. Possible Cause — 4" Expansion Plug not installed inside the spill bucket riser • When installing the 4" expansion plug insure that you have installed the plug inside the spill bucket riser (black) and located the plug at the bottom of the riser just above the drop tube. Check and verify the expansion plug has been correctly installed. Do not perform a liquid capacity test with the EBW, OPW or Morrison dust cap installed. 5 of 7
