Background Information

he Morrison Venting Guide was created to assist in equipment selection for aboveground storage tanks. Examples on the next two pages illustrate a vent selection process. It is best to work through the examples before attempting to use any of the tables in this book. Tables include examples for standard sized tanks. The venting capacity charts and wetted area tables were taken directly from NFPA 30 and UL 142. The vent selection chapter includes venting capacities of specific Morrison vents. This data was obtained from results of laboratory testing and engineering calculations. Catalog pages of the Morrison equipment follow the vent capacity chart.

Definitions
Emergency Venting Venting sufficient to relieve excessive internal pressure in storage tanks caused by exposure fires. Venting rate may exceed requirements of normal atmospheric and product transfer effects. In such cases, the construction of the tank will determine if additional venting capacity must be provided. Atmospheric Tank A storage tank that has been designed to operate at pressures from atmospheric through 1.0 PSIG (760 mm Hg through 812 mm Hg) measured at the top of the tank (NFPA 30 Pg. 30-8). Pressure not to exceed 1.0 PSIG under normal operation, and 2.5 PSIG under emergency conditions (PEI RP-200). Pressure Relieving Devices Defined in NFPA 30 2-3.6.4, where entire dependence for emergency relief is placed upon pressure relieving devices, the total venting capacity of both normal and emergency vents shall be enough to prevent rupture of the shell or bottom of the tank if vertical, or of the shell or heads if horizontal. Wetted Area Exposed surface or shell area of a tank used in determining the venting requirements needed for that size tank in event of an exposure fire. In a horizontal tank, the wetted area is calculated as 75% of the exposed surface area. In a vertical tank, the wetted area is calculated as the first 30 ft. above grade of the exposed shell area of the tank. CFH Abbreviation for Cubic Feet of Free Air per Hour used to quantify or measure the airflow and degree of pressure relief for venting calculations. Vent Capacity The maximum rate of airflow (CFH) recorded under test conditions at a maximum pressure of 2.5 PSI for specific sized emergency vents. This capacity rating is often required to be featured as a permanent label on the vent itself.

Vent Selection/Capacity Example

Horizontal Cylindrical Storage Tank

TANK CAPACITY 10,000 gallons TANK SIZE 10 ft. dia x 17 ft. long

STEP 1 Precalculated Data for Common Sizes Find tank size on chart on page 5. Table lists wetted area and CFH for common sized horizontal tanks. For a 10 x 17 tank wetted area = 518 sq. ft. and required vent capacity = 360,840 CFH. Proceed to Step 5. STEP 2 Wetted Area Table

STEP 5

Vent Selection

Options based on size of piping, type of product, flow requirements, required venting capacity and mounting. For the sake of this example, use 2" piping, Class 1B liquid. The normal vent size should be no smaller than the system piping, so a Morrison 2" Fig. 548 (20,200 CFH) is selected. Total required venting capacity for this tank example was determined to be 360,840 CFH. Normal venting and emergency venting may be combined to reach this total. Morrison Vent Capacities are listed on page 12. Since the 6" Emergency Vent (246,130 CFH) can not provide enough additional capacity to meet the requirement, an 8" Emergency Vent (462,000 CFH) is selected. In specifying pressure settings, it is recommended that the Emergency Vent NOT be less than the normal vent. Therefore, the vent specification for this example is as follows: Normal Vent - 2" Fig 548 ........................... 20,200
(8 oz pressure - 1 oz vacuum)

If tank size is NOT listed on page 5, wetted area can also be found on page 8. Follow grid for this example 10' diameter x 17' length = 518 sq. ft. Proceed to Step 4. STEP 3 Calculate Wetted Area

If the tank size is NOT on either chart, wetted area can be calculated. For Horizontal Tanks, wetted area = 75% of the total exposed surface area. For a 10' x 17' tank: 0.75[2(area of each end) + (area of shell)] = wetted area = 3.14, d = diameter, L = length, WA = wetted area WA = 0.75[(d2 2) +(dL)] 0.75[((3.14)(102) 2) + (3.14)(10)(17)] WA = 518 sq. ft. STEP 4 Determine CFH Requirement

Use Venting Capacity Chart on page 10. Wetted area must be known (518 sq. ft.). Since 518 is between 500 and 600 on the chart, interpolation is needed and is done as follows: 600 sq. ft. .............. 392,000 CFH 500 sq. ft. .............. 354,000 CFH 100 sq. ft. ................38,000 CFH 38,000 100 = x x (518-500) x = 6,840 CFH

Refer to the chart on page 13 showing vent combinations and verify the total CFH figure. Also refer to the product illustrations on pages 14 - 19 and verify the selection for correct option on material compatibility and mounting requirements.

Difference =

Total CFH Required: (6,840 + 354,000) = 360,840 CFH

STEP 5

Vent Selection

Find tank size on chart on page 6. Table lists wetted area and CFH for common sized vertical tanks. For a 10 x 17 tank wetted area = 534 sq. ft. and required vent capacity = 366,920 CFH. Proceed to Step 5. STEP 2 Wetted Area Table

Options based on size of piping, type of product, flow requirements, required venting capacity and mounting. For the sake of this example, use 2" piping, Class 1B liquid. The normal vent size should be no smaller than the system piping, so a Morrison 2" Fig. 548 (20,200 CFH) is selected. Total required venting capacity for this tank example was determined to be 366,920 CFH. Normal venting and emergency venting may be combined to reach this total. Morrison Vent Capacities are listed on page 12.

If tank size is NOT listed on page 6, wetted area can also be found on page 9. Follow grid for this example 10' diameter x 17' height = 534 sq. ft. Proceed to Step 4. STEP 3 Calculate Wetted Area

If the tank size is NOT on either chart, wetted area can be calculated. For Vertical Tanks, wetted area = area of shell to elevation not more than 30 ft. above the bottom. For a 10' x 17' tank: Wetted Area = (area of shell) = 3.14, d = diameter, L = length, WA = wetted area WA = (d)L (3.14)(10)(17) WA = 534 sq. ft. STEP 4 Determine CFH Requirement

Vent Selection

Find tank size on chart on page 7. Table lists wetted area and CFH for common sized rectangular tanks. For a 274"L x 130"W x 65"H (22'-10"L x 10'-10"W x 5'5"H) tank wetted area = 612 sq. ft. and required vent capacity = 396,320 CFH. Proceed to Step 4. STEP 2 Calculate Wetted Area

Options based on size of piping, type of product, flow requirements, required venting capacity and mounting. For the sake of this example, use 2" piping, Class 1B liquid. The normal vent size should be no smaller than the system piping, so a Morrison 2" Fig. 548 (20,200 CFH) is selected. Total required venting capacity for this tank example was determined to be 396,320 CFH. Normal venting and emergency venting may be combined to reach this total. Morrison Vent Capacities are listed on page 12.

In specifying pressure settings, it is recommended that the Emergency Vent NOT be less than the normal vent. Therefore, the vent specification for this example is as follows: Normal Vent - 2" Fig 548 ........................... 20,200
(8 oz pressure - 1 oz vacuum)

If the tank size is NOT on the precalculated chart on page 7, wetted area can be calculated. For Horizontal Rectangular Tanks, wetted area = exposed shell area excluding the top surface of the tank. For a 274"L x 130"W x 65"H tank: Wetted area = (L x W) + 2(L x H) + 2(W x H) 144 L = length, W = width, H = height (274 x 130) + 2(274 x 65) + 2(130 x 65) 144 Wetted Area = 612 Sq. ft.

Use Venting Capacity Chart on page 10. Wetted area must be known (612 sq. ft.). Since 612 is between 600 and 700 on the chart, interpolation is needed and is done as follows: 700 sq. ft. .............. 428,000 CFH 600 sq. ft. .............. 392,000 CFH 100 sq. ft. ................36,000 CFH 36,000 100 = x x (612 - 600) x = 4,320 CFH

Refer to the chart on page 13 showing vent combinations and verify the total CFH figure. Also refer to the product illustrations on pages 14 - 19 and verify the selection for correct option on material compatibility and mounting requirements.

Emergency Vents
244 Emergency Vent
Emergency vent (pressure relief only) used on aboveground storage tanks, as a code requirement that helps prevent the tanks from becoming over-pressurized and rupturing if exposed to fire. UL listed.

Fig.244

Fig.244M

Fig.244F

WARNING!
The 244 emergency vent must be properly sized and selected for each specific tank application in order to meet the proper venting capacity requirements.

WARNING!
The 244 emergency vent is for emergency pressure relief only and must be used in conjunction with a normal vent or pressure vacuum vent such as a Morrison Fig. 354, 548, 748, or 749.

Description
The 244 emergency vent consists of a body and cover that moves up and down on a center pin. Pressure inside the tank forces the cover to lift up off the vent seat, allowing air to exhaust. The center pin guides the movement. When pressure falls the cover lowers back down onto seat and the vent is automatically reset.

Material and Configuration Options

1. Aluminum Body or Iron Bodysuffix (I) indicates iron. 2. Metal-to-Metal Seat (brass) or Soft Seat (Viton)suffix (O) indicates o-ring. 3. Male Threads/Female Threads/Flanged Mounting Connectionsuffix (M) indicates male, and suffix (F) indicates flanged. 4. Opening Pressure Settingsettings indicated are approximate. Emergency vent should be set higher than the normal vent so the normal vent operates first. 5. Screened Opening(all 4" and 6", and 8" female threaded body only) specify "WITH SCREEN", #3 mesh stainless steel screen used for theft control. Screen is NOT intended to function as a flame arrester.
Use 16 oz. o-ring to comply with pressure decay test. Contact factory for assistance.

Code Compliance
When properly sized for the tank, this vent will conform to the requirements of NFPA 30, 30A, UL 142, UL 2244, API 2000, and PEI RP200. Aluminum Body Style(O) indicates Viton o-ring seat

FMMASO-91 Series Overfill Warning Valve for Waste Oil Systems

Patent 5007450warning valve with optional alarm for use on waste oil evacuation systems which use an air operated pump.

Operation
1. Valve installs on 2" bung opening at the top of the tank. Air supply is routed through the valve before going to the pump. 2. The valve will close off air supply to the pump when liquid level reaches 90% of tank capacity. Air is diverted to the audible signal on models FMMASO-91S and FMMASO91EXS. 3. The valve will reset as liquid is removed from the tank and air pressure to the valve is turned off. Fig. FMMASO-91S
