As of Oct. 5, UL  has suspended authorization to use UL markings (listing or recognition) on components for fuel-dispensing devices that specifically reference compatibility with alcohol- blended fuels that contain greater than 15-percent alcohol.  Then after another set of technical meetings in November, UL was unable to establish a list of generically acceptable metals or non-metals for use in E85 fueling systems.

Ensuring uninterrupted power and safe dispensing systems begins with preventative maintenance. With winter approaching now is the perfect time to review your fuel storage safety and maintenance procedures.   ConVault aboveground storage tanks are covered with a low maintenance concrete exterior which requires much less maintenance than traditional steel tanks.
