2 Supply Chain Challenges Downstream Fuel Quality

Why Establish A Prevent Defense From Air There are three basic ways in which contamination is

pipes. It may be clean or filtered, but can be contaminated by dust, microbes or other gases.

Air generally displaces the volume of fuel consumed in a storage system.

Air itself may be considered a contaminant because the oxygen present can increase the oxidation

3 Why Establish A Prevent Defense From Air There are three basic ways in which contamination is introduced into a fuel system: air, water, and the fuel itself Air enters a system through venting pipes. It may be clean or filtered, but can be contaminated by dust, microbes or other gases. It also may contain large amounts of moisture. Air generally displaces the volume of fuel consumed in a storage system. It is not practical to keep air from entering the tank, unless desiccant dryers are used. Air itself may be considered a contaminant because the oxygen present can increase the oxidation of the fuel.

Water Contamination When ignored, it can be the primary root cause of down trucks, It can also lead to corrosion and microbial contamination in your fuel system.

4 Water Contamination When ignored, it can be the primary root cause of down trucks, It can also lead to corrosion and microbial contamination in your fuel system. There are three forms of Water contamination Dissolved - water molecules dispersed throughout the fuel containment Emulsified - globules of water dispersed in stable suspension Free water - free standing water at bottom of the reservoir 4

6 Four check valves in the top cap, open at 0.1 PSI, providing redundant air flow into the reservoir Four check valves in the base, open at 0.1 PSI, allowing air to by-pass a reverse path through the silica gel The optional Isolation Check Valve provides maximum protection for the silica gel. The Isolation Check Valve also acts as a barrier to splashing fluids. With With Out

10 Replacement cartridges reduce waste and lower replacement cost Replacement cartridge are priced at the disposable breather price level Cartridges are avalailable with or with out the Isolation Check Valve (optional). Cartridge lengths include 5, 8 and 12 Tritan is BPA-free and made without halogens, sulfur, nitrogen, lead, mercury, cadmium or hexavalent chromium keeping these materials out of the environment. Tritan is a recyclable material.

11 Activated Carbon Molecular Sieve Silica Gel Customize your breather with a Stack Ring Adapter. The additional cartridge may contain silica gel, activated carbon or molecular sieve. These secondary agents protect equipment from caustic fumes, extend the performance range or increase the life of a desiccant breather. Connecting two cartridges of similar size reduces air flow 50%.

Installing desiccant breathers will give you; A great defense for exposed vents on

13 The Payoff Experts agree desiccant breathers are the easiest to deploy and most cost efficient contamination control products available. Installing desiccant breathers will give you; A great defense for exposed vents on your storage tanks Protects your assets from contaminants and moisture Not to mention simple to install and easy to replace. 13
