Here are the basic steps for installation of a fuel dispenser.
- installation of the shoring prior to excavation: Shoring is a temporary structure used to support the sides of an excavation to prevent cave-ins. Before excavation begins, shoring is installed to ensure the safety of workers.
Â
- Excavate the area and prepare for Underground Storage Tank placement with a layer of stone and anchor stones: The excavation process involves digging a hole for the Underground Storage Tank (UST) to be placed in. A layer of stone is laid down as a base, and anchor stones are placed around the perimeter of the hole to secure the tank.
Â
- Installation of the Underground Storage Tank and backfill to the top of the tank: The UST is then lowered into the hole and secured in place. Once the UST is in place, it is backfilled with soil up to the top of the tank.
Â
- Remove the shoring material from the perimeter of the area: The shoring that was installed in step one is removed from the excavation area.
Â
- Dig trenches from the submersible turbine pump sumps to the fuel dispenser area: Trenches are dug to connect the submersible turbine pump sumps, where fuel is stored, to the fuel dispenser area.
Â
- Install submersible turbine pumps in manway openings: Submersible turbine pumps are installed in the manway openings of the UST to transfer fuel to the dispenser area.
Â
- Run product piping from sumps to dispenser areas: Pipes are run from the submersible turbine pump sumps to the dispenser area to transport fuel.
Â
- Run electrical conduits from submersible turbine pump manways back to building: Electrical conduits are installed from the submersible turbine pump manways to the building.
Â
- Run electrical conduits from dispenser pans back to building: Electrical conduits are installed from the dispenser pans to the building.
Â
- Product piping is pressure tested for leaks: The piping system is pressure tested to ensure there are no leaks.
Â
- When the pressure test is successful, trenches and tanks are backfilled with crushed stone: Once the pressure test is successful, the trenches and UST are backfilled with crushed stone.
Â
- Install wiring into the conduits: Electrical wiring is installed into the conduits.
Â
- Install concrete pad: A concrete pad is poured to create a stable surface for the fuel dispensers.
Â
- Set dispensers onto islands and connect to piping: The fuel dispensers are installed onto islands and connected to the piping system.
Â
- Install probes and sensors into tanks, sumps, and dispenser pans: Probes and sensors are installed to monitor the level of fuel in the UST, sumps, and dispenser pans.
Â
- Terminate wiring into relay boxes, panels, and automatic tank gauge console: Wiring is terminated into relay boxes, panels, and automatic tank gauge consoles.
Â
- Deliver product into tanks: Fuel is delivered into the UST.
Â
- Energize the dispensers and submersible turbine pumps and purge air out of product lines: The fuel dispensers and submersible turbine pumps are energized and any air in the product lines is purged.
Â
- Pave around the perimeter of tank pads: The perimeter of the tank pads is paved to create a finished look.
Â
- Site is complete: The site is now complete and ready for operation.
