The PERMEATOR TM — <br /> • Saves You Money by Reducing Gasoline Evaporative Losses ' <br /> • Keeps the Environment Cleaner <br /> • Independent, third-party field test confirmed <br /> the predicted evaporative losses and <br /> determined that the PERMEATOR reduced �• _ <br /> these evaporative emissions by 99.27%. -Ak <br /> • Protects the Health of Your Staff and Customers 4 <br /> • Installs Easily into Stage II Vapor Recovery <br /> Systems or Stands Alone at Uncontrolled Sites <br /> • UL698A Approved PERMEATOR --- <br /> TM <br /> The PERMEATOR prevents the venting <br /> of gasoline vapors (volatile organic <br /> compounds) and resulting product loss <br /> from gasoline storage tanks through a <br /> V. <br /> patented membrane. The system virtually <br /> eliminates evaporative emissions and has <br /> been proven over many years in large tank <br /> storage and refinery applications. <br /> Arid Technologies, Inc., now brings this <br /> same robust technology to the retail <br /> station environment. <br /> Design Highlights Feature Benefits <br /> The PERMEATOR reduces the evapora- Low initial cost.
