Anchoring Pump/Dispenser to Island
WARNING
Improper anchoring of units can cause damage, severe injury, or death resulting from the
unit tipping over from the impact or drive-off. Also, the hose breakaways may not
function properly if the unit is not anchored. NFPA 30A requires you to anchor
pumps/dispensers. Securely install anchor bolts at all anchoring locations as shown on
, for safe operation of shear valves and hose
breakaways. Also refer to “shear valve manufacturer’s instructions”.
Note: Ground tank installations require a pressure regulating valve at the base of the pump.
Gasboy provides the 52 valve for this purpose.
To anchor a pump/dispenser to the island, proceed as follows:
1
Ensure that the shear valves are firmly anchored to the island form [concrete or pit box (see
)].
Note: If the shear valve is not anchored properly, it may not operate correctly during a severe
impact. Refer to “shear valve manufacturer’s instructions”.
