Installation dimension a for the LDL tank within the scope of replacing leak detectors
• The minimum installation dimension amin for replacing leak detectors within the scope of
TRbF 501 is to be determined according to calculation equations [5] and [6] and be
complied with. The installation dimension a
max
may not be exceeded and must be
determined according to calculation equation [4].
• The following applies: a
min
≤ a ≤ a
max
[1]
• Distance between the check valve and the bottom of the LDL tank: ≥ 10cm
The arrangement of the LDL tank for above-ground and underground tanks is shown
schematically in Figure 4.

According to VdTÜV fact sheet 904
• For underground tanks diagram 3 can be used to determine the minimum installation
dimension a
min
in relation to the density of the storage medium with the parameter tank
diameter D or tank height L.
Assumed as: p

• As opposed to calculating the installation dimension a according to EN 13160-3, when the
installation dimension a is calculated according to TRbF 501 and VdTÜV
fact sheet 904, the bottom of the LDL tank is used as the reference line.
