Equipment and Materials Required at Site
Use of incompatible materials or components with alternative fuels such as E85 can result
in leaks or unexpected failures of components resulting in fire, explosion, or environmental
damage.
When dispensing alternative fuels such as E85, verify with the manufacturer if the material
of all plumping components are compatible with fuels such as E85 being dispensed.
WARNING

• STPs and leak detectors for dispensers
• Piping and fittings
• Pit boxes (also known as dispenser sumps)
• Shear valves for dispensers
• Check valves for pumps
• Conduit and gas/oil resistant wiring
• STP control relay boxes for dispensers
• Circuit breakers
• Isolation relays for electronic dispensers
