1] <br />Criterion for Declaring a Leal <br />3. This system <br />uses a preset threshold <br />measures and reports the output quantity and compares it to a predetermined threshold <br />to determine whether the pipeline is leaking. <br />4. This system <br />( X) uses a single test <br />( )uses amultiple-test sequence consisting of -tests (specify number of tests <br />required) separated by _ hours (specify the time interval between tests) <br />to determine whether the pipeline is leaking. <br />5. This system declares a leak if the output of the measurement system exceeds a threshold of <br />1.88 al hr (specify flow rate in gal/h) in 1 out of 1 tests (specify, forexample, I out <br />of 2, 2 out of 3). If more detail is required, please specify in the space provided. <br />Evaluation Approach <br />6. There are five options for collecting the data used in evaluating the performance of this <br />system. This system was evaluated <br />(X) at a special test facility (Option 1) <br />at one or more instrumented operational storage tank facilities (Option 2) <br />at five or more operational storage tank facilities verified to be tight (Option 3) <br />at 10 or more operational storage tank facilities (Option 4) <br />with an experimentally validated computer simulapiton, (.Option 5) <br />1 nle <br />7. A total of - 53 tests were conducted on nonleaking 10 between 7/8/91 (date) <br />and 7/20/91 (date). A description of the pipeline configuration used in the -evaluation is <br />summarized in Attachment 3. <br />Answer questions 8 and 9 if Option 1, 2, or 5 was used. <br />8. The pipeline used in the evaluation was 2 in. in diameter, 219 ft long and <br />constructed of. f i berql ass (fiberglass, steel, or other). <br />9. A mechanical line leak detector <br />( )was <br />(X) was not <br />present in the pipeline system. <br />Ansu,ey- questions 10 and 11 if Option 3 or 4 was used. NA <br />10. The evaluation was conducted on (how many) pipeline systems ranging in <br />diameter from - in. to - in., ranging in length from _ ft to <br />ft, and constructed of (specify materials). <br />Pipeline Leak Detection System - Results Form Page 2 of 5 <br />
