Tank Leak Test Results
Leak test results are either increase, passed, failed, or indeterminate
(see Tank
Leak Test Reports, Slope & Leak Test Results in Chapter 3 of this manual)
.
Reasons Why Tank Leak Tests Fail:
•
Temperature instability – (temperature variations) of the product within the tank after a
delivery
is the most important and most common source of interference and failed leak
tests / false alarms
(a failure to detect real leaks can also result).
•
Temperature variation – of product within the tank (look at the hourly temperature data
on the leak test report and retest if the variation is more than a few tenths of a degree –
see Chapter 3).
