Tank Testing The two types of tank tests available for your ATG are Static and Statistical Continuous Automatic Leak Detection (SCALD®). IMPORTANT: In compliance with federal, state and local regulatory policies, all tanks must be monitored for leaks due to environmental and public safety/health concerns. Tank tightness testing determines if there is a leak.
Static Testing Tank Test Requirements Static Tank Testing is a standard feature of your ATG. SCALD® is an option you can order when you purchase the console or after initial purchase by using the part number TS-TT. Test Types This system is designed to perform two types of static tests to comply with regulatory policies. •...
Ideal test conditions Tank and environmental conditions play an important role in passing results. Consider the following items when scheduling or manually forcing a static leak test: Variable Explanation Product Level The level in the tank must submerge at least the lowest RTD (temperature sensor) inside the probe shaft.
Static Test Results Pass: A passing result indicates that the test calculated a slope that is lower than the threshold of the test performed. Fail: A failing result indicates that the system has calculated a slope that exceeds the required threshold for the test type and will trigger an alarm.

SCALD ® SCALD® runs 24 hours a day performing 0.2 GPH tests on tanks at sites that do not have enough quiet time to complete static tests (some static tests may take up to eight hours to complete). This test is available only if the option for Tank Testing is enabled. This option can be ordered when initially purchasing the console or afterwards.
Testing Requirements To perform this test, the SCALD® software must be enabled. To verify that the software is enabled: 1. Starting at the Home screen, open the Quick Jump Menu. 2. Tap System>System Information>Software Options. 3. Under Software Options, Tank Testing will appear. A “yes” in the Enabled column indicates that the software has been purchased and is enabled.
• Temperature Instability. • If a site is receiving deliveries frequently and the temperature of the fuel being delivered is several degrees hotter or colder than the fuel in the tank, SCALD® will not be able to collect data due to thermal instability interrupting quiet time. The temperature of the fuel cannot change more than .01°...
