Shear Valves
(Generally Used on Dispensers Only)
Note: Shear valves are not required on pumps but installation is discretionary.
See “PEI Publication RP100 Recommended Practices for In
stallation of Underground Liquid
Storage Systems (Chapter 9)” and “PEI Publication RP200 Recommended Practices for
Installation of Aboveground Storage Systems for Motor Vehicle Fueling”. A shear valve
(see Figure 7-4) is an NFPA 30A required safety device. It closes automatically to stop the
product flow during a fire or if the dispenser gets knocked off the island. It also provides a
means of manually closing inlet pipes.
Follow the shear valve manufacturers instructions for installation procedures and testing.
Install a shear valve on each product inlet pipe.
Install a shear valve on a master dispenser satellite outlet and at satell
ite inlet.
Do not mount the shear valve upside down.
Ensure that the valve linkage is accessible and displays no in
terference while opening or
closing, from other piping, structure, or components.
Note: The dispenser product inlet pipes has to be aligne
d with the shear valve.
Do not restrict the shear valve linkage with pipes, braces, and so on.
Test the shear valve operation.
Close the shear valve until the startup of the equipment. Cap the inlet
pipe. This prevents
dirt and other particles from entering the product line. It also prevents fuel spillage.
