- 12 - 3.4 Field of Application 3.4.1 Interstitial space requirements  Proof of pressure resistance of the interstitial space (see section 3.3, column "pTEST" minimum test pressure of the interstitial space)  Proof of suitability of the interstitial space (for Germany: proof of usability from construction authority).  Sufficient passage in the interstitial space for the leak detection medium (air/nitrogen)  Tightness of the interstitial space according to this documentation.  The number of interstitial spaces to be monitored depends on the total interstitial space volume. According to EN 13160, 10 m3 may not be exceeded. To be able to test the tightness of the interstitial space, it is recommended not to exceed 4 m3. The pipeline length (per duct) to be monitored should not exceed 2500 m and must correspond with the specifications for the pipe permit. 3.4.2 Pipes  Double-walled pipes made of metal or plastic, in factory or on-site construction. For Germany: Additional requirements may result from the respec- tive permits.  ONLY for applications without temperature variations of more than  10°C (e.g. double-walled pipes installed underground or indoors – no hot media). 3.4.3 Fittings  Double-walled fittings made of metal or plastic in factory or on-site construction. For Germany: with proof of usability from construction authority, unless it is part of the pipe permit.  ONLY for applications without temperature variations of more than  10°C (e.g. double-walled pipes installed underground or indoors – no hot media). 3.4.4 Conveyed product  Liquids hazardous to water, even with a flash point of ≤ 60°C (for Germany ≤ 55°C according to TRGS 509 and TRGS 751). Chapter 3.4.5 is to be observed.  The conveyed product may not react with the leak detection me- dium. Technical Data

- 13 - 3.4.5 Interaction between interstitial space, leak detection medium and operating mode Regardless whether there is permeation in the interstitial space or not, the leak detection medium nitrogen is to be used for all applica- tions if the goods to be conveyed have a flash point ≤ 60°C (≤ 55°C for Germany according to TRGS 509 and TRGS 751). This specification is based on a risk evaluation according to the di- rective 2014/34/EU (explosion directive). The risk evaluation was per- formed based on the table in section 3.3 (informative) for EN 13160. If the evaluation of the device categories has different results due to operational regulations or for any other reasons, the use of the leak detector must be checked separately. Technical Data

- 16 - The pressure leak detector DLR-GS monitors both walls of the dou- ble-walled system for leaks. The monitoring pressure during operation is higher than any pressure on the inner or outer wall, so that leaks will be indicated by a pressure drop. Inert gas, air from a pressure gas bottle or from a pressure gas sys- tem can be used as leak detection media. If air is used, it must be dried to a relative humidity of less than 10%. The current pressure is shown on the display in mbar/bar or PSI4:  Values of less than 150 mbar or less than 2.18 PSI will not be dis- played.  Values of up to 990 mbar will be displayed in mbar and without decimal.  Values from 1 bar are displayed in bar with two decimals and from 10 bar with one decimal.  Values in PSI are displayed with one or two decimals. 4.2 Normal Operating Condition The normal operating condition is achieved during the initial operation through pressure buildup to the operating pressure, generally with a mobile pressure tank. The existing pressure in the interstitial space is monitored with a pres- sure sensor in the leak detector. Any minor leaks will lead to a fall in pressure. The result of this is that the requirements for the impermea- bility of the interstitial space(s) and the connection(s) must be set very high to assure trouble free operation for one year. 4.3 Function in Case of Leaks If there is a leak in the inner or outer wall, gas will leak from the inter- stitial space. The pressure drops. An optical and audible alarm will be triggered when the alarm pres- sure is reached, which will open the voltage-free contacts. Optionally, an additional relay can be used to establish voltage-free contacts when the specified “Refilling required” pressure is not reached. The pressure value for “Refilling required” is approx. 1 bar above the "Alarm ON” switching value. 4.4 Overpressure Valve An overpressure valve is not provided in the leak detector, but it can be installed if the application requires it. (Please consult with the man- ufacturer). 4 The change of the bar and PSI settings is performed at the factory. This change can also be performed on site following coordination with the manufacturer.

(2) Flush the interstitial space with inert gas if walls of storage me- dium are not impermeable.7 (3) If a leak detector is commissioned on a pipe (fitting) that is al- ready in operation, special protective measures must be taken (e.g. testing that the leak detector and/or the interstitial space is free of gas). Additional measures may be necessary depending on the local conditions and must be assessed by qualified per- sonnel. 6.1 Commissioning the Pressure Gas Bottle (1) Turn pressure regulator all the way back. (2) Insert a suitable manometer (indicating range) into the coupling 51 of the test equipment and insert the test equipment into the coupling (6.2) of the leak detector. (3) Open cylinder shut-off valve (if necessary, test tightness between pressure reducer and bottle) (4) Set pressure on the pressure reducer using the pressure regula- tor on the pressure reducer according to section 3.3 (adjust dur- ing pressure build-up, if necessary). (5) After completion of the functional check: - Close shut-off valve on the pressure reducer. - Close cylinder shut-off valve. - Remove pressure reducer from the bottle (Caution: Gas will escape until the pressure reducer has no pressure). - Install protective cover on bottle. 6.2 Commissioning the Leak Detector (1) Tightness of the interstitial space prior to commissioning is as- sumed (2) Switch on line voltage (3) Ascertain lighting of "Operation" and "Alarm" signal lamps and sounding of the audible alarm. If necessary, turn off audible alarm signal. (4) Pressure build-up the interstitial space: Open the shut-off cock 2.2 at the test equipment to build up the pressure in the leak detector and the interstitial space. With very large interstitial spaces it may be necessary to switch bottles (see section 5.3 in conjunction with sections 5.4 and 6.1) Note: If no pressure build-up is achieved with the pressure gas bottle connected, the leak must be located and corrected (check the settings for the pressure reducer as well, if necessary). 7 For Germany: Additional DIBT requirements must be considered for such double-walled pipes.  Commissioning

- 28 - 7. Functional Check and Maintenance 7.1 General (1) If the leak detection system has been properly installed and is free of leaks, trouble-free operation can be assumed. (2) Even very minor leaks will trigger an alarm. (3) In the event of an alarm, determine the cause and fix it quickly. (4) The leak detector must be disconnected from power for any re- pairs to be performed on the leak detector. (5) A loss of power is indicated by the "Operation" signal lamp going off. Alarm signals are triggered via the voltage-free relay contacts (if used for alarm transmission) if contacts 11 and 12 were used. After the power loss, the green signal lamp lights up again and the voltage-free contacts no longer generate an alarm (unless the power loss has caused the pressure to drop below the alarm pressure). 7.2 Maintenance  Maintenance work and functional checks must be performed by trained personnel only8.  Once a year to ensure functional and operational safety.  Test scope according to section 7.3.  Compliance with the conditions according to sections 5 and 6 must also be tested.  Comply with explosion regulations (if required), e.g. BetrSichV (and/or directive 1999/92/EC and the laws of the respective mem- ber states resulting therefrom) and/or others. 7.3 Functional Check The functional and operational safety tests must be performed:  after each commissioning  in accordance with the time intervals listed in section 7.29  each time a malfunction has been corrected 7.3.1 Test scope (1) Coordinate the work to be performed with those responsible for operation on site, if necessary (2) Observe the safety instructions for working with the product to be conveyed. 8 For Germany: Technical service according to water law with expertise in leak detection systems. For Eu- rope: Authorization by the manufacturer 9 For Germany: In addition, national laws apply (e.g. AwSV) Functional Check and Maintenance

- 29 - (3) Check the test valve at the end of the interstitial space pointing away from the leak detector for tightness and contamination, and clean it, if necessary (4) Checking the free passage of air in the interstitial space (section 7.3.2) (5) Testing the switching values (section 7.3.3) (6) Tightness test following commissioning or correction of malfunc- tions (section 7.3.4) (7) Creating the operating condition (section 7.3.5) (8) A qualified person must complete a test report, confirming func- tional and operational safety. 7.3.2 Checking the free passage of air in the interstitial space If several interstitial spaces are connected in parallel, each one of them must be checked for passage. (1) Insert measuring gauge into the test coupling 6.2. The current pressure in the interstitial space will be displayed. (2) Open the test valve for the first connected interstitial space. (3) Check whether the measuring gauge registers a pressure drop. (4) Close the test valve. (5) Repeat process from paragraph (2) to (4) for each additional test valve of the interstitial space(s) connected to this leak detector. (6) The pressure drop generated by the test can be compensated as follows: a) Remove the measuring gauge from the coupling and insert it into the test coupling 51 of the test equipment. b) Insert the test equipment into coupling 6.2. c) Connect the pressure cylinder to the test equipment acc. To chapter 5.3 (5.4 and 6.1) d) Open the shut-off cock 2.2. e) Pressure build-up until pressure setpoint; during filling, moni- tor the pressure on the pressure reducer (test pressure must not be exceeded) and re-adjust if necessary f) Once the filling process has been completed, close the shut- off valve on the pressure reducer, and disconnect the meas- uring gauge and pressure cylinder. 7.3.3 Testing the switching values (1) If several interstitial spaces are connected through a distribution system, close all shut-off cocks on the distributor. (2) Insert the test equipment into the coupling 6.2 (3) Insert the manometer into the test coupling 51 of the test equip- ment. Functional Check and Maintenance

- 30 - (4) Connect the pressure cylinder to the test equipment acc. To chapter 5.3 (5.4 and 6.1). (5) Bleed the shut-off cock 2.1 to determine the switching values “Refilling required” (the yellow signal lamp, if available, lights up) and for “Alarm ON”. Record the values. (6) Close the shut-off cock. (7) (Slowly) open the shut-off cock 2.2. During the pressure build-up, check the switching values for “Alarm OFF” and “Refilling (here: Filling) OFF” (if available). Record the values. (8) Close the shut-off cocks. Remove the pressure cylinder properly and decouple the test equipment. (9) The test is considered passed if the values specified in section 3.3 have been satisfied. (10) Open all shut-off cocks in the connection line(s). 7.3.4 Tightness test following commissioning or correction of malfunctions10 (1) Insert measuring gauge into the coupling 6.2. The measuring gauge will display the current pressure. (2) The tightness test is approved for one year of trouble-free opera- tion if the following conditions have been met: Determine the difference between the measured values for “Re- filling (Filling) OFF” and “Alarm ON” and convert into mbar (x 1000). Divide the calculated value by 8760. This results in a maximum tolerated pressure drop (per hour) to prevent triggering an alarm before one year has passed. If the determined value cannot be measured, multiplication of the pressure drop will re- sult in the same multiplication of the test time. Example: Difference between the above-named switching values: 1.75 bar (value measured on site) 1.75 x 1000 = 1750 1750 / 8760 = 0.2 mbar/h (admissible pressure drop) The measuring gauge available on site “only” shows a value of 5 mbar. This means the readability is 25 times (5 / 0.2). This ex- tends the test time to 25 hours. (3) Disconnect the measuring gauge after the tightness test has been completed. 7.3.5 Creating the operating condition (1) Seal the housing and the test valve(s) at the end of the interstitial space pointing away from the leak detector. (2) If shut-off cocks have been installed in the connection lines, they must be sealed in an opened position (if connected to an intersti- tial space). 10 This section assumes that the operating pressure has been built up in the interstitial space and the pres- sure has been compensated.
