• <br /> Step 2-Determine Buoyancy Control Method <br /> Step 2 is used if the Step 1 analysis shows that buoyancy control is required for the tank model and the conditions of installation.As before,the maximum <br /> height_of_the_watecoutside-of_the_tank_and_above_the_tank.bottom-AND_the_depth_ofsoilcovecabovethe_tank_top_must_be known_focthe_installation <br /> conditions to complete Step 2. <br /> Table 3 Instructions <br /> For each tank model,find the Case row on the left side of the table that corresponds to both the water height(Parameter I)and soil cover measurements <br /> (Parameter II)for the tank installation conditions.Follow the row to the right fora listing of the appropriate buoyancy control methods for the installation <br /> conditions under each method description column.Refer to the Compatible Devices and Products and Step 3-Implementation sections of this document <br /> for additional information. <br /> • <br /> Table 3:Buoyancy Control Selection • <br /> Ror buoyancy Control Methods knintmnne per side of tan <br /> x rnnmefer l , Parameter li Minimum c up emental b <br /> Case t+ksterhelQhtaboretenkbottam 5 <br /> Soil cover depth above force required Concrete-titled Concrete paring Concrete traffic eitcat <br /> tor <br /> tank top (total,both tank skies) haft'pipe016 IR:g.000:014Z111:Ilitbarriers attohars <br /> t (ml e) <br /> (mfin,lengtttls�de) In engthJatde} ttgltdstde) <br /> F <br /> A <br /> ARAAZA <br /> 1 36 in(900 mm)to outlet pipe saddle' 6 in(150 mm)to 12 in(300 mm) 2,200 lbs(1,000 kg) 3.8 ft(1.2 m) 3.8 ft(1.2 m) 3.8 ft(1.2 m) I2 <br /> 0"*51,i7",:!i 36 in(900 mm)to outlet pipe saddle' 6 in(150 mm)to 12 in(300 mm) 2,700 lbs(1,225 kg) 4.2 ft(1.3 m) 4.5 ft(1.4 m) 4.2 ft(1.3 m) 2 <br /> 1 E ^=30 in(750 mm)to 36 in(900 mm) 6 in(150 mm)to 12 in(300 mm) 1,900 lbs(865 kg) 5.5 ft(1.7 m) 5.5 ft(1.7 m) 5.5 ft(1.7 m) 2 <br /> 36 in(900 mm)to outlet pipe saddle' 6 in(150 mm)to 12 in(300 mm) 5,100 lbs(2,325 kg) 6.9 ft(2.0 m) 8.0 ft(2.4[n) 5 5 ft(1.7 r+) 2 <br /> N.e <br /> 1 -'i.30 in(750 mm)to 36 in(900 mm) 6 in(150 mm)to 12 in(300 mm) 3,000 lbs(1,365 kg) 7.7 ft(2.3 m) 77 ft(2.3 m) 7.7 ft(2.3 m) 2 <br /> 2 ;; 36 in(900 mm)to outlet pipe saddle' 6 in(150 mm)to 12 in(300 mm) 6,700 lbs(3,050 kg) 8,5 ft(2.6.m)- 10.5 ft(3.2 m) • 7.7 ft(2.3 m) 2 <br /> s ids �,z <br /> 1 -f 30 in(750 mm)to outlet pipe saddle' 6 in(150 mm)to 12 in(300 mm) 4,300 lbs(1,955 kg) '6.3 ft(2.0 m) 8 5 ft(2.0 m) 6.3 ft(2.0 m) 2[ <br /> NOTES: <br /> 1.See Supplemental Force discussion below. <br /> 2.IM-Series outlet pipe saddle height is 43 inches(1,075 mm)above tank bottom. <br /> 3.TW-1250 and TW-1500 outlet pipe saddle height is 39 inches(975 mm)above tank bottom. <br /> Supplemental Force <br /> The minimum supplemental downward force required is included in Table 3 to allow custom buoyancy control methods.These values Include a factor of <br /> safety of 1.5 applied to the calculated force required to restrain the tank.Custom-designed buoyancy control methods shall consider saturated conditions. <br /> So long as buoyancy control is provided that supplies the minimum weight listed in the table(for poured-concrete blocks or other methods designed by <br /> third parties),the tanks will be stable for the water height outside the tank and above the tank bottom and corresponding soil cover conditions.All Infiltrator <br /> strapping and fastening recommendations would still apply for custom-designed buoyancy control methods.Contact Infiltrator's Technical Services <br /> Department with any questions regarding supplemental force requirements. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> Contact Infiltrator Systems'Technical Services Department for assistance at 1-800.221-4436. <br />
