*3.2. Condensate Tank*

The primary function of the condensate tank is to collect and store in a common condensate tank all liquids that have been separated in the various individual filters and separators until they are removed by a vacuum truck. A high-level alarm will sound whenever there is a dangerously high amount of liquid inside the tank [34].

Because of the potential for the environment within the tank to become explosive, a flame arrestor will be installed in it so that the station may continue to function in an appropriate and secure manner. In order to prevent any leaks into the earth, the tank will be constructed as a double-walled tank that will also have a leak detecting system.

To maintain a liquid temperature of at least +5 degrees Celsius even when the surrounding air temperature is at its coldest, the whole condensate tank will be electrically trace-heated and insulated.
