4-13. 50,000 GALLON TANK TPT OPTIONAL CONFIGURATION. - continued
NOTE
Liberally apply petrolatum to the gasket and the inside surface of coupling clamp to
prevent pinching during installation. Then, pull the coupling gasket over one
grooved end of each mating joint. Ensure gasket is properly positioned over full
circumference of sealing surfaces. Position coupling clamp over gasket. While
maintaining alignment of mating parts, lock coupling clamp securely.
j.
Connect the filter separator (9) using coupling clamp (10) and. gasket (11).
k.
Connect the water detection kit adapter (12) to the filter separator (9) using quick disconnect coupling (13) clamp
(10) and gasket (11).
I.
Connect remaining gate valve (4), 4 inch x 25 foot hose assembly (3) Cam-lock, butterfly valve (14) and 4 inch x 3

4-14. TRANSFER HOSELINE.
The transfer hoseline assembly is used to connect the tank farm assemblies, switching manifold, fuel dispensing
assemblies, and tanker-truck receipt manifolds into an operational TPT.
NOTE
· There are four transfer hoseline assemblies in a TP1T. (One per pipeline connection assembly
and one in each of the three fuel units.)
· Fuel from the pipeline enters the switching manifold and with proper positioning of valves, fuel
is routed through transfer hoseline .o any fuel unit. Fuel is stored in fuel units and then
transferred through the transfer hoseline assembly by the 600 GPM hoseline pump to the fuel
dispensing assembly or back to a pipeline.
a.
The 6 inch x 500 hose assemblies are supplied in shipping and storage containers.
b.
Position containers storing 6-inch tees and gate valve assemblies near their respective installation sites as
indicated in (figure 4-13).
c.
Remove necessary quantities of 6-inch aluminum tees, 6-inch aluminum gate valve assemblies, coupling clamps,
and coupling gaskets from containers.
d.
Inspect all items for damage, cleanliness, and quantities required.
