- Now Available! Factory Certifications for Installation and Annual Testing
All Vmι mechanical line leak detectors have been factory assembled and tested to meet the EPA leak detection threshold established during certification testing. Abnormal field conditions such as high line resiliency (high bleed-back), pump pressures over 30 PSI and high head pressures affect line leak detection sensitivity. Additionally, wear affects performance of leak detection over time. To meet these issues, Vmι established through certification testing, the ability of field technicians to adjustVmι mlld’s to compensate for field variables and normal wear. Please read Technical Bulletin 032805 for specific instructions on this feature.
Longest Guarantee
The 99 LD-2200 shares the longest guarantee available in the industry, along with the Vmι 99 LD-2000 and 99 LD-3000 leak detectors. For 24 months after installation, the 99 LD-2200 is guaranteed to see a 3 GPH @ 10 PSI leak.
Highest Flow Capacity
If you can pump it, we can flow it! The 99 LD-2200 has maximized the flow and flow path. This new design reduces turbulent flow, maximizing pump performance for any pump housing.
One-Way Poppet Flow Path
The 99 LD-2200 shares this newest technology with the 99 LD-2000. The One-Way Poppet Flow Path isolates pump turbulence from line leak detection at pump start-up. Hardened Stainless Steel poppet does not dimensionally change due to thermal conditions encountered during normal station operations.
Reverse Ratio Piston / Poppet Combination
Reverse Ratio means the leak detector has a smaller diameter piston area than the poppet it is attached to. This smaller piston area keeps the leak detector in the fast fill position (3 GPM) to a higher pressure while compressing vapor pockets and expanding flexible pipe.
This means less time to full flow! Another benefit of the Reverse Ratio Piston / Poppet Combination is faster reset with the pump off. The leak detector does not have to completely reset (as with competitive leak detectors) for the poppet to be forced into the reset mode at pump start-up.
Smaller Volume / Faster Response Piston Size
With a reduced piston size, there is one-fourth the volume to replace when in leak search and one-fourth the volume to return to the line when the pump turns off. This combination makes for a more responsive and faster leak detector. Less volume to leave the line for the leak detector to reset and catch leaks. Less volume to fill and provide full flow for dispensing!
Superior Flex-Pipe Performance
The reduced surface area of the piston significantly reduces the surface area exposed to hydraulic line shock. This results in enhanced performance in steel and fiberglass piping, and more importantly, this leak detector has great performance in today’s flexible pipe.
Shortest Leak Detector Profile
The 99 series leak detectors are the lowest profile detectors available today.
99 LD-2200\75 for Slow-Flow Problems with 3/4 or 1/3 hp Submersibles
The 99 LD-2200 allows more flow than any other leak detector available. When the 99 LD-2200 is used with a 3/4 hp submersible and seven or more nozzles, pressure in the line may fall below the pressure necessary to keep the leak detector open. The same is true for 1/3 hp submersibles if 5 nozzles are available for fueling. Several factors influence leak detector reset besides available nozzles, including: burial depth, pipe size and the pump/motor performance. If your 99 LD-2200 line leak detector is resetting when most or all the nozzles are open, the Vmι 99 LD-2200\75 will compensate for pressure drop at the leak detector. The 99 LD-2200\75 meets all specifications of the 99 LD-2200 and is covered by the third party certification of the 99 LD-2200 as there is no change in function except flow. The hex portion of the 99 LD-2200\75 is painted green.
