Franklin Motors Defender Series Spill Container


The importance of spill containment integrity continues to increase as more environmental regulations are implemented around the world, causing the emphasis on spill containment integrity to increase. Today, defending forecourt environments while minimizing expenses is a top priority for station owners. The Defender Series Spill Container with I2 Monitor was designed to fulfill these specific needs, while catering to the needs of installers. The end result is a versatile and evolved spill container which meets current and future needs. The Defender Series Spill Container reduces the cost of ownership by minimizing the amount of necessary ongoing maintenance and also provides an easy double wall upgrade solution in anticipation of future regulations. Installers will benefit from the installation height adjustment capability that the Defender Series Spill Container provides which makes it possible to easily adjust to construction site conditions without having to re-cut spill containment tank risers.



The Defender Series spill container combines years of knowledge and experience in forecourts across the globe to represent the next generation in spill containment.

I2 (Interstitial Integrity) Monitor facilitates efficient monthly and annual visual inspections confirming the integrity of the secondary containment space.

Advantages


•Fugitive Emission Protection: The Defender Series Spill Container utilizes a ¼" compression gasket at the point of connection between the female spill containment threads and the tank riser threads to eliminate possible thread leaks. It also meets the TP-201.ID drain valve leak rate of 0.17 CFH at 2.0 in/wc.

•Integrity Confirmation: Mechanical or sensor monitored interstitial space on double wall models provide visual or electronic confirmation of containment integrity.

•Minimized Maintenance Costs: The field replaceable containment may be replaced easily without having to break concrete while the protected plow ring connection eliminates the possibility of damaged threads. The single wall option can also be upgraded to a double wall option as regulations evolve without having to break concrete or install a completely new spill container.
 
Double Wall Upgradeability


As regulations change, it may become necessary to upgrade a single wall spill container to meet future requirements. The Defender Series™ Spill Container allows the single wall option to be converted into a double wall spill container simply by removing the snow plow ring, removing the single wall containment, threading the secondary contained spill container onto the existing tank riser and then reinstalling the snow plow ring.
