What is a Manifold?
![Page 6: UST Inspector Training Webinar](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022618/621924aff946ba076426ca83/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Manifolded Tanks
• A piping connection between two tanks that allows fuel to freely flow from one tank to another. A tank manifold allows one submersible pump to draw product from two or more tanks, thus increasing the storage capacity for that product

Manifolded Tanks
• Provides for larger storage capacity and reduces the number of deliveries needed to keep the location in operation.

Drone Tank
![Page 13: UST Inspector Training Webinar](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022618/621924aff946ba076426ca83/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Drone Tank
• Drone tank – A tank that has only a siphon bar connecting it to another tank for product piping.

Siphon Bar
![Page 15: UST Inspector Training Webinar](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022618/621924aff946ba076426ca83/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What to look for?
![Page 16: UST Inspector Training Webinar](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022618/621924aff946ba076426ca83/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What to look for?
• Open all lids in tank field
• Determine # of tanks
• Determine # of STP’s
• Are they equal?
• Is there a siphon bar?
• Is there a piping sump?
• Open dispenser cabinets
• How many grades of fuel are being sold?
![Page 17: UST Inspector Training Webinar](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022618/621924aff946ba076426ca83/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Other things to look at!
• Print out an inventory off the monitoring system.
• Pressing the print button on a Veeder root will give you an inventory.
• Look at Tank label names
– Sometimes the name will ID the master and drone tank.

Still not sure
• Keep looking down the list
– Tank that are Manifolded will then be listed.
– May also give you the combined volume of both tanks
May also tell you which UST has an STP

Need more info
• CSLD Test results
– Should list the tanks that are manifolded and therefore you will see one .2 gph test result.
– (hopefully passing)

Need more info?
• Print out the in-tank set up
• Look down the list of information for each tank.
• Siphon Manifolded Tanks

What about the tank field?
• Open all sump covers and look to see if what you see in the tank field matches the monitoring system print outs.

Functional Element
• Check valve – (contains functional element adjusting screw to isolate line) -The functional element
guides the stem of the check valve which can be tightened down with an adjusting screw to assist in pressure testing the lines
• Pressure relief - allows expansion relief and also relieves full
pump pressure when the pump is shut off
• Vacuum Source – Creates a siphon (siphon bar for manifold
tanks)
• Air Eliminator - provides a high point in the pump where air can
be collected and discharged back to the tank.
