Non-Biofuel & Biofuel MLLDs
The Red Jacket® Non-Biofuel and Biofuel Mechanical Line Leak Detectors (MLLDs) are permanently installed in the packer manifold and interact with the fuel pathway, performing 3 Gallons Per Hour (GPH) / 11.4 Liters Per Hour (LPH) tests automatically. If a leak is detected, fuel flow is restricted to the dispensers.
The Non-Biofuel and Biofuel MLLDs are built for superior performance and keeping operators in compliance – even in the most challenging environments. They offer the fastest mechanical line leak test available for hourly monitoring – while complying with the U.S. Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) catastrophic line leak detection requirements. They are guaranteed for two years. The Non-Biofuel and Biofuel MLLDs are UL Listed and third-party certified to ensure quality, performance, and durability. The Biofuel MLLD is UL Listed for additional fuel types compared to the Non-Biofuel MLLD.
Protecting Your Site Infrastructure From Corrosion
Corrosion of equipment in sump spaces can cause deterioration, negatively effecting a MLLD’s performance, potentially resulting in environmental issues and hazardous conditions. The Red Jacket Biofuel Mechanical Line Leak Detectors provide enhanced protection from corrosive condition. Its upgraded design includes a stainless steel body, cap, and machined components, to withstand the harshest corrosive environments.
28-Day Salt Fog/Humidity Chamber Test
The Red Jacket Biofuel MLLD was tested against the Red Jacket Non-Biofuel MLLD and a competitive Biofuel MLLD in a 28-Day Salt Spray evaluation, per ASTM G85. The testing results showed significant differences between both the competitive Biofuel MLLD and the Red Jacket Non-Biofuel MLLD, whereas the Red Jacket Biofuel MLLD showed minimal signs of corrosion.
