the use of Auto-Learn in rigid pipelines up to 163-gallon capacity and in flex
pipelines up to 39.5 gallons.
TABLE P-2 Third Party Approved — Max Pipe Lengths:
Maximum pipe lengths are equivalent to: 163 gallons (617 liters) in rigid piping
systems and 39.5 gallons (149.5 liters) in flexible piping systems.
A minimum static line pressure of 17.5 psi is needed for Auto-Learn LLD to perform
a Gross (3gph) and Monthly (0.2 gph) line-leak test. If the static line pressure is
greater than 17.5 psi but less than 22.5 psi, the Annual (0.1 gph) line-leak test can
not be performed.
For each pipeline verify that the pressure is 25 psi or greater when the pump is
“ON,” and that the pressure holds at 22.5 psi or greater when the pump is “OFF.”
Use a pressure gauge to verify that each line is stable after 5 minutes of pump-off.
The pressure change in a stable pipeline must be less than 5 psi.
To maintain proper pipeline pressure with a FE Petro STP, use FE Petro’s standard check valve.
With Red Jacket STP, use the adjustable functional element with pressure adjusted to meet the
Auto-Learn LLD pressure requirements. For proper operation of the Red Jacket functional element
the pump “ON” pressure must be at least 2 psi greater than pump “OFF” line pressure. See Red
Jacket instructions for complete details before starting.
