Vapor Recovery Systems of
Dispensing Facilities

1 APPLICABILITY

Definitions common to all certification and test procedures are in:

D-200 Definitions for Vapor Recovery Procedures

For the purpose of this procedure, the term "ARB” or “CARB" refers to the California
Air Resources Board, and the term "Executive Officer" refers to the ARB Executive
Officer or his or her authorized representative or designate.

1.1 This test procedure is used to quantify the vapor tightness of vapor recovery
systems installed at gasoline dispensing facilities (GDF) equipped with
pressure/vacuum (P/V) valves, provided that the designed pressure setting of the
P/V valves is a minimum of 2.5 inches of water column (inches H 2 O).

1.2 Systems equipped with a P/V valve(s) allowed to have a designed cracking
pressure less than 2.5 inches H 2 O shall be bagged to eliminate any flow
contribution through the valve assembly from the test results. The valve/vent
pipe connection, however, shall remain unobstructed during this test.

1.3 At facilities not required to be equipped with a P/V valve(s), the vent pipe(s) shall
be capped. For those installations, the test may be conducted at the vent
pipe(s).

2 PRINCIPLE AND SUMMARY OF TEST PROCEDURE

2.1 The entire vapor recovery system is pressurized with nitrogen to two (2.0) inches
H 2 O. The system pressure is then allowed to decay and the pressure after five
(5) minutes is compared with an allowable value. The minimum allowable five-
minute final pressure is based on the system ullage and pressure decay
equations. For the purpose of compliance determination, this test shall be
conducted after all back-filling, paving, and installation of all Phase I and Phase
II components, including P/V valves, has been completed.

California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012

TP-201.3, Page 1
2.2 For GDF equipped with a coaxial Phase I system, this test shall be conducted at
a Phase II vapor riser. For GDF which utilize a two-point Phase I system, this
test may be conducted at either a Phase II riser or a Phase I vapor coupler
provided that the criteria set forth in Section 6.7 have been met. If the integrity
criteria for two-point systems specified in Section 6.7 are met, it is recommended
that this test be conducted at the Phase I vapor coupler.

3 RANGE

3.1 If mechanical pressure gauges are employed, the full-scale range of pressure
gauges shall be 0-2.0, 0-1.0, and 0-0.50 inches H 2 O column. Maximum
incremental graduations of the pressure gauge shall be 0.05 inches H 2 O and the
minimum accuracy of the gauge shall be three percent of full scale. The
minimum diameter of the pressure gauge face shall be 4 inches.

3.2 If an electronic pressure measuring device is used, the full-scale range of the
device shall not exceed 0-10 inches H 2 O with a minimum accuracy of 0.5
percent of full-scale. A 0-20 inches H 2 O device may be used, provided the
equivalent accuracy is not less than 0.25 percent of full-scale.

3.3 The minimum total ullage, for each individual tank, shall be 1,000 gallons or 25%
of the tank capacity, whichever is less. The maximum total ullage, for all
manifolded tanks, shall not exceed 25,000 gallons. These values are exclusive of
all vapor piping volumes.

3.4 The minimum and maximum nitrogen feed-rates, into the system, shall be one
(1) and five (5) CFM, respectively.

4 INTERFERENCES

4.1 Introduction of nitrogen into the system at flowrates exceeding five (5) CFM may
bias the results of the test toward non-compliance. Only gaseous nitrogen shall
be used to conduct this test. Air, liquefied nitrogen, helium, or any gas other than
nitrogen shall not be used for this test procedure.

4.2 For vacuum-assist Phase II systems which utilize an incinerator, power to the
collection unit and the processor shall be turned off during testing.

4.3 For vacuum-assist systems, with positive displacement vacuum pumps, which
locate the vacuum producing device in-line between the Phase II vapor riser and
the storage tank, the following requirements shall apply:

4.3.1 A valve shall be installed at the vacuum producing device. When closed, this
valve shall isolate the vapor passage downstream of the vacuum producing
device.

California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012

TP-201.3, Page 2
4.3.2 The storage tank side of the vacuum producing device shall be tested in
accordance with the procedures outlined in Section 7 of this method.
Compliance shall be determined by comparing the final five-minute pressure
with the allowable minimum five-minute final pressure from the first column
(1-6 affected nozzles) in Table IB or use the corresponding equation in
Section 9.2.

4.3.3 The upstream vapor passage (nozzle to vacuum producing device) shall also
be tested. Methodology for this test shall be submitted to the California Air
Resources Board (CARB) for approval prior to submission of test results or
shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
applicable CARB Executive Order.

4.4 The results of this static pressure integrity test shall not be used to verify
compliance if an Air to Liquid Volumetric Ratio Test (TP-201.5 or equivalent) was
conducted within 24 hours prior to this test.

4.5 Thermal Bias for Electronic Manometers

Electronic manometers shall have a warm-up period of at least 15 minutes

followed by a five minute drift check. If the drift exceeds 0.01 inches water
column, the instrument should not be used.

5 APPARATUS

5.1 Nitrogen

Use commercial grade nitrogen in a high pressure cylinder, equipped with a two-
stage pressure regulator and a one psig pressure relief valve.

5.2 Pressure Measuring Device

Use 0-2.0, 0-1.0, and 0-0.50 inches H 2 O pressure gauges connected in parallel,
a 0-2 inches H 2 O manometer, or an electronic pressure measuring device to
monitor the pressure decay in the vapor recovery system. The pressure
measuring device shall, at a minimum, be readable to the nearest 0.05 inches
H 2 O.

5.3 “T” Connector Assembly

California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012

TP-201.3, Page 3
 coupler, this assembly shall be used prior to conducting the static leak test in
order to verify the pressure integrity of the vapor poppet. The internal volume of
this assembly shall not exceed 0.1 cubic feet.

5.5 Vapor Coupler Test Assembly

Use a compatible OPW 634-B cap, or equivalent, equipped with a center probe
to open the poppet, a pressure measuring device to monitor the pressure decay,
and a connection for the introduction of nitrogen into the system. See Figure 3
for an example.

5.6 Stopwatch

Use a stopwatch accurate to within 0.2 seconds.

5.7 Flow Meter

Use a Dwyer flowmeter, Model RMC-104, or equivalent, to determine the

required pressure setting of the delivery pressure gauge on the nitrogen supply
pressure regulator. This pressure shall be set such that the nitrogen flowrate is
between 1.0 and 5.0 CFM.

5.8 Combustible Gas Detector

A Bacharach Instrument Company, Model 0023-7356, or equivalent, may be

used to verify the pressure integrity of system components during this test.

5.9 Leak Detection Solution

Any liquid solution designed to detect vapor leaks may be used to verify the
pressure integrity of system components during this test.

6 PRE-TEST PROCEDURES

6.1 The following safety precautions shall be followed:

6.1.1 Only nitrogen shall be used to pressurize the system.

6.1.2 A one psig relief valve shall be installed to prevent the possible over-
pressurizing of the storage tank.

6.1.3 A ground strap should be employed during the introduction of nitrogen into
the system.

6.2 Failure to adhere to any or all of the following time and activity restrictions shall

California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012

TP-201.3, Page 4
 invalidate the test results:

6.2.1 There shall be no Phase I bulk product deliveries into or out of the storage
tank(s) within the three (3) hours prior to the test or during performance of
this test procedure.

6.2.2 There shall be no product dispensing within thirty (30) minutes prior to the
test or during performance of this test procedure.

6.2.3 Upon commencement of the thirty minute “no dispensing” portion of this
procedure, the headspace pressure in the tank shall be measured. If the
pressure exceeds 0.50 inches H 2 O, the pressure shall be carefully relieved in
accordance with all applicable safety requirements. After the thirty minute “no
dispensing” portion of this procedure, and prior to introduction of nitrogen, the
headspace pressure shall again be lowered, if necessary, to less than 0.50
inches H 2 O.

6.2.4 There shall be no Air to Liquid Volumetric Ratio Test (TP-201.5 or equivalent)
conducted within the twenty-four (24) hour period immediately prior to this
test.

6.2.5 The test shall be conducted with the station in normal operating mode. This
includes all nozzles properly hung up in the dispenser boots and all dispenser
cabinet covers in place. The exception to normal operating mode is that
dispensing is disallowed as specified.

6.3 Measure the gallons of gasoline present in each underground storage tank and
determine the actual capacity of each storage tank from facility records.
Calculate the ullage space for each tank by subtracting the gasoline gallonage
present from the actual tank capacity. The minimum ullage during the test, for all
manifolded tanks, shall be 1,000 gallons or 25 percent of the tank capacity,
whichever is less. The total ullage, for all manifolded tanks, shall not exceed
25,000 gallons.

6.4 For two-point Phase I systems, this test shall be conducted with the dust cap
removed from both the product and the vapor coupler. This is necessary to
determine the vapor tightness of the Phase I vapor poppet. See Section 6.7 if
this test is to be conducted at the Phase I vapor coupler.

6.4.1 For coaxial Phase I systems, this test shall be conducted with the dust cap
removed from the Phase I coupler. This is necessary to insure the vapor
tightness of the Phase I vapor poppet.

6.4.2 Verify that the liquid level in the storage tank is at least four (4) inches above
the highest opening at the bottom of the submerged drop tube.

California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012

TP-201.3, Page 5
6.5 If the Phase I containment box is equipped with a drain valve, this test shall be
conducted with the drain valve installed and the manhole cover removed. If the
drain valve is cover-actuated, the test shall be done once with the cover removed
and repeated with the cover installed.

6.6 If the test is to conducted at a Phase II vapor riser, disconnect the dispenser end
of one vapor recovery hose and install the “T” connector assembly (see Figure
1). Connect the nitrogen gas supply (do not use air) and the pressure measuring
device to the “T” connector.

6.6.1 For those Phase II vapor systems utilizing a dispenser mounted remote vapor
check valve, the “T” connector assembly shall be installed on the vapor riser
side of the check valve.

6.7 If this test is to be conducted at the Phase I vapor coupler on a two-point Phase I
system, the procedures set forth in subsections 6.7.1 and 6.7.2 shall be
successfully completed prior to testing. The static pressure integrity test shall
not be conducted at the Phase I coupler at facilities equipped with coaxial Phase
I systems.

6.7.1 Connect the Vapor Coupler Integrity Assembly to the Phase I vapor coupler.
Connect the Vapor Coupler Test Assembly. Connect the nitrogen supply to
the assembly and carefully pressurize the internal volume of the assembly to
two (2.0) inches H 2 O. Start the stopwatch. Record the final pressure after
one minute.

6.7.2 If the pressure after one minute is less than 0.25 inches H 2 O, the leak rate
through the Phase I vapor poppet precludes conducting the static leak test at
this location. If the pressure after one minute is greater than or equal to 0.25
inches H 2 O, the static leak test may be conducted at this location. This
criteria assures a maximum leak rate through the Phase I vapor poppet of
less than 0.0004 cubic feet per minute.

6.7.3 Disconnect the Vapor Coupler Integrity Assembly to the Phase I vapor
coupler. If the requirements of subsection 6.7.2 were met, connect the Vapor
Coupler Test Assembly to the Phase I vapor coupler.

6.7.4 Product may be poured onto the Phase I vapor coupler to check for leaks.
This diagnostic procedure shall not be substituted for the procedures set forth
in subsections 6.7.1 and 6.7.2.

6.8 All pressure measuring device(s) shall be bench calibrated using either a
reference gauge or incline manometer. Calibration shall be performed at 20, 50,
and 80 percent of full scale. Accuracy shall be within two percent at each of
these calibration points. Calibrations shall be conducted on a frequency not to
exceed 90 days.

California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012

TP-201.3, Page 6
6.9 Use the flowmeter to determine the nitrogen regulator delivery pressures which
correspond to nitrogen flowrates of 1.0 and 5.0 CFM. These pressures define
the allowable range of delivery pressures acceptable for this test procedure.
Also record the regulator delivery pressure setting, and the corresponding
nitrogen flowrate that will be used during the test. As an alternative, the
flowmeter may be connected, in-line between the nitrogen supply regulator and
Vapor Coupler Test Assembly, during the test.

6.10 Use Equation 9.3 to calculate the approximate time required to pressurize the
system ullage to the initial starting pressure of two (2.0) inches H 2 O. This will
allow the tester to minimize the quantity of nitrogen introduced into those
systems which cannot comply with the static leak standards.

6.11 Attach the Vapor Coupler Test assembly to the Phase I poppet or the “T”
connector assembly to the Phase II vapor riser. Read the initial pressure of the
storage tank and underground piping. If the initial pressure is greater than 0.5
inches H 2 O, carefully bleed off the pressure, in accordance with all applicable
safety procedures, in the storage tank and underground piping to less than 0.5
inches H 2 O column.

6.12 Any electronic manometers shall be subject to warm-up and drift check before
use; see Section 4.5.

7 TESTING

7.1 Open the nitrogen gas supply valve and set the regulator delivery pressure within
the allowable range determined in Section 6.9, and start the stopwatch.
Pressurize the vapor system (or subsystem for individual vapor return line
systems) to at least 2.2 inches H 2 O initial pressure. It is critical to maintain the
nitrogen flow until the pressure stabilizes, indicating temperature and vapor
pressure stabilization in the tanks. Check the test equipment using leak
detecting solution or a combustible gas detector to verify that all test equipment
is leak tight. Note: if a combustible gas detector is used to search for leaks,
components which were certified with an allowable leak rate, such as 0.38 CFH
at a pressure of two (2) inches, cannot be determined to be faulty solely on the
basis of the concentration registered on the instrument.

7.1.1 If the time required to achieve the initial pressure of two (2.0) inches H 2 O
exceeds twice the time derived from Equation 9.3, stop the test and use liquid
leak detector, or a combustible gas detector, to find leak(s) in the system.
Failure to achieve the initial starting pressure within twice the time derived
from Equation 9.3 demonstrates the inability of the system to meet the
performance criteria. Repair or replace the faulty component(s) and restart
the test pursuant to Section 7.1.

California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012

TP-201.3, Page 7
7.2 Close and disconnect the nitrogen supply. Start the stopwatch when the
pressure has decreased to the initial starting pressure of two (2.0) inches H 2 O.

7.3 At one-minute intervals during the test, record the system pressure. After five
minutes, record the final system pressure. See the applicable of Tables 1A (or
Equation 9.1) or 1B (or equation 9.2) to determine the acceptability of the final
system static pressure results. For intermediate values of ullage in Tables 1A
and 1B, linear interpolation may be employed.

7.4 If the system failed to meet the criteria set forth in Table 1A or 1B (or the
appropriate equation in Section 9), repressurize the system and check all
accessible vapor connections using leak detector solution or a combustible gas
detector. If vapor leaks in the system are encountered, repair or replace the
defective component and repeat the test. Potential sources of leaks include
nozzle check valves, nozzle vapor paths, pressure/vacuum relief valves,
containment box drain valve assemblies, and plumbing connections at the risers.

7.4.1 If the facility fails to comply with the static leak test standards and the two
point Phase I system utilizes overfill prevention devices in the drop tubes
which were installed before July 1, 1993, and which are unable to pass the
test with the dust caps removed from the product and vapor couplers (see
Sec. 6.4), the test may be conducted with the caps on the couplers, as an
exception.

This exception is not intended to allow bleed holes in drop tubes.

This exception expires on January 1, 2002, after which date all testing shall
be conducted with the fill and vapor caps removed from two point systems.
Under no circumstances may the test be conducted with the caps on coaxial
Phase I couplers.

7.5 After the remaining system pressure has been relieved, remove the “T”
connector assembly and reconnect the vapor recovery hose, if applicable.

7.6 If the vapor recovery system utilizes individual vapor return lines, repeat the leak
test for each gasoline grade. Avoid leaving any vapor return line open longer
than is necessary to install or remove the “T” connector assembly.

7.7 If the applicable CARB Executive Order requires the test to be conducted with
and without the containment box cover in place, repeat the test with the cover in
place. In these cases clearly specify, on Form 1, which results represent the
pressure integrity with and without the cover in place.
