In the openposition, the adapter must have a clear, unobstructed opening2 in. (50.8 mm) in depth, measured from the outer face or clo-s
25、ure of the valve as shown in Figure 1. If a poppet device isused, the adapter poppet must have a travel of 2 in. (50.8 mm),measured from the sealing surface, as shown in Figure 1. Thefront face of the adapter poppet must be flat within 0.004 in.(0.102 mm), excluding the corner radius. No fastening d

Table 1 pro-vides equivalent SI values for the customary dimensionsshown in Figures 1 and 2.4.1.1.2 ActuationThe primary liqui
27、d control must be by means of the setstop meter on the loading island or a self-contained system onthe tank vehicle. The coupler may be opened for loading bymanual or automatic means.4.1.1.3 Size of Product OpeningThe adapter must have a product opening 4 in. (101.6 mm)in diameter at the exposed out

35、n each of the tank vehicle compartments toassure that once the sensor has been activated, product flowstops before the compartment is completely full. Determina-tion of the proper depth must take into account the maximumproduct flow rate, shutoff valve response times and tank com-partment volume (th
36、at is, the available outage).5.3.1.1Maximum product flow rate at the loading rack.For bottom loading racks, this typically ranges from 600 900 gallons per minute (gpm) (2.27 3.40 cubic meters perminute (m3pm) per loading arm. At 900 gpm (3.400 m3pm)the flow is 15 gallons per second (gps) (0.057 cubi
37、c metersper second (m3ps). This flow rate may be different dependingupon product and facility, however, tankers should be pre-pared to load safely at any facility.5.3.1.2Shutoff valve response time.Normal flow shutdowntime with a properly functioning preset loading meter control(PSC) valve is 1 2 se
38、conds. In the rare case when the PSCvalve is not functioning properly, the loading flow will bestopped by the independent secondary shutoff (SSC) systemand 2 4 seconds is typically required. This 2 4 second timeincludes the overfill protection systems activation time andtime for the independent valv
39、e (SSC) to close. 5.3.1.3Tank Compartment Volume. The minimum outagerequirement for each compartments sensor setting is 60 gal-lons (0.227 m3). Combining the 900 gpm (15 gps) 34.07m3pm (0.057 m3ps) maximum flow rate and the 4-secondmaximum shutdown time requires an empty space (outage) of60 gallons

44、uirement of 3% for thermalexpansion, the 60 gallon (0.227 m3) outage quantity is notbased on a percentage of the total compartment size. Forexample the 60 gallon (0.227 m3) outage is 6% of a 1,000 gal-lon (3.79 m3) compartment, but only 1.5% of a 4,000 galloncompartment (15.14 m3). To safely accommo
45、date the outagethe high-level sensor must be installed at the correct depthdepending upon tank compartment size, see Figure 5A. Theexact sensor depth should be determined by reference to thetanks actual capacity chart (available from the tank vehiclemanufacturer). Since sensors can be mounted direct
46、ly into thetop of the tank shell, or in the dome lid cover, an allowance forthe added height must be made when mounting in the domelid cover (the sensor must be longer, to offset the highermounting), see Figure 5B.Note: Inspection of the sensor depth can be accomplished during theannual vapor tightn
47、ess testing.5.3.2 Thermistor SystemA thermistor system uses a thermistor sensor (a tempera-ture-sensitive resistor) that is heated by an intrinsically safeelectrical signal from the loading rack. When in air, the sensoris warmer than the highest expected product temperature.When product comes in con
48、tact with the sensor, the ther-mistor is cooled, causing a change in resistance. This changeis detected by the rack overfill controller, which shuts downthe PSC valve and the independent SSC valve.5.3.3 Optical SystemAn optical system uses a beam of light that is internallyreflected from an exposed
49、glass/air interface when the sensoris in air. An electrical photodetector intercepts this reflectedlight and produces a signal that is used to energize the loading-valve control system. When liquid touches the glass sensor,the beam is refracted into the liquid and is not reflected backinto the photodetector. The control unit, which grants permis-sive control only when it receives a signal from the photode-tector, shuts down the PSC valve and the independent SSCvalve.5.4 REQUIRED FEATURES5.4.1 Electrical RequirementsAny electrical system used for secondary shutoff controlmu
