Appendix A <br /> 71 SO Overfill Valve Upper Tube Calculation Worksheet <br /> Important: This is meant to be supplemental worksheet and not a substitute to following the installation <br /> manual instructions. All length measurements are in inches. Please contact the Authority Having Jurisdic- <br /> tion(AHJ)and review local,state,and national codes to determine the regulatory requirements governing <br /> shut-off capacity in your region,as well as take into account other considerations such as extreme tank tilt. <br /> Desired tank capacity for shut-off: SO%= <br /> Dipstick Number on Tank Chart that corresponds to 100%volume(Y)= Y <br /> 0 <br /> Dipstick Number on Tank Chart that corresponds to SO%(X)= 0 (X) <br /> Upper Tube Reference Number Z=Y-X _ 2 (Z) <br /> Upper Tube Depth Inside Tank C=Z-2" <br /> (C) <br /> Distance from top sealing surface for 71 SO Lip' to inside the <br /> top of Storage Tank2 A= <br /> For Non-Testable 71 SO models only <br /> In all cases for non-testable 71 SO models,the top of the valve body must protrude at least 6'/2"into the tank to <br /> provide a minimal clearance for proper operation.'
