OPW’s state-of-the-art Loop System offers unparalleled environmental security and hassle-free inspection for gasoline, diesel and high-flow fueling operations. Fueling stations, contractors and distributors can all enjoy the benefits of this system’s pre-fabricated, cost-effective components. The Loop System’s factory-assembled pieces translate into dramatically less field labor, associated cost and potential for installation errors. Fully accessible above ground via curved piping and built-in test ports, this network of sumps, couplings and pipes can be maintained and repaired without excavation.

100% Accessible No Breaking Concrete

  • All primary piping is contained in access pipe for easy removal
  • 45-degree sump wall angles allow pipe to be retracted through sump without the need to remove the dispenser
  • Shallow bury sumps allow access to the bottom of sump beneath dispenser from above grade
  • Fitting repair or cleaning out of sump can be accomplished above grade through the dispenser door
Lower Overall Cost;
Helps Prevent Downtime Losses

Double Containment Protection

  • OPW UL 971-listed double-wall pipe with more than 20 years of proven performance
  • Flexible piping allows continuous runs between all sumps, eliminating any joints or piping connections buried in the ground
  • No buried joints mean no potential leaks directly into the underground environment
  • Access pipe resists crushing and punctures while protecting the primary pipe and provides another layer of protection against exposure to the environment
Reduces Risk of Environmental Mishaps,
Non-Compliance and Fines

Completely Testable

  • Shallow sumps allow quicker and less expensive hydrostatic testing (now required every 3 years by the EPA)
  • Built-in test ports on stainless steel double-wall coupling eliminates the need for temporary rubber test boots
  • Permanent test ports allow easy re-testing or continuous monitoring of piping interstitial space

End-to-End Monitoring

  • Stainless-steel couplings with built-in test ports and rugged test assemblies allow vacuum or brine continuous monitoring of the piping system
  • Small interstitial space in OPW double-wall piping makes detecting a leak quicker and simpler than other double-wall piping systems
  • Piping can be removed and inspected without breaking concrete
  • Shallow sumps bring components close to the surface for easy inspection or testing

Fewer Parts to Stock and Install

  • Easy to order
  • One Loop part number includes the sump, entry fittings, stabilizer bars and shear valves
  • Distributors can easily spec out material list with pre-fabricated part numbers and fewer line items
  • Fewer loose parts for contractor to manage at busy job sites and cluttered job trailers
