2.2 Intended use
The product is a leak detector for pressure systems, class I as per EN 13160-
1 and EN 13160-2.
This product may only be used to detect leaks in tanks which are not pres-
surised (i.e. operated under atmospheric conditions) and which are used for
the aboveground or underground storage of liquids.
Tanks
• Double-walled steel tanks as per EN 12285-1 (DIN 6608) EN 12285-2
(DIN 6616), of tank class B and C, as well as vertical cylindrical tanks as
per DIN 6619-2, vertical tanks as per DIN 6623-2, and cylindrical horizon-
tal tanks as per DIN 6624-2.
• Steel or plastic tanks, double-walled or single-walled with leak protection
lining or leak protection jacket, with suitable interstitial space as per
EN 13160-7 and with a test pressure of 600 mbar in the interstitial space.
The product may be connected to a single aboveground tank or to several
underground tanks with a total interstitial space volume of 4 m³, depending
on the drying capacity of the drying filters, see chapter "Drying filter". Instal-
lation in the manhole of underground tanks is only permissible with the
approval of the authorities.
Liquids
• Steel tanks: Water-polluting liquids
• Plastic tanks: Water-polluting liquids
• AdBlue® (urea solution 32.5 %) as per DIN 70070
The permissible density of the liquid depends on the tank used and its con-
tent:
Tank height / tank
diameter Permissible density of the stored liquid
