Model L12-TL

Long Pan Thief Hatch

The L12-TL incorporates a large working surface, larger cover and a gauging and sampling hook into the base. The base is inclined to match the slope of the API 12 tank’s roof to provide a level working surface.

The L12-TL outperforms the competition with industry-leading flow rates and high-precision tolerances for a superior seal. A leakage rate less than 1 SCFH of air at 90% of set pressure keeps your tanks in compliance with industry standards.

Thief hatches are used on steel or fiberglass (FRP) low-pressure oil tanks to provide access for level gauging, sampling and overpressure or vacuum protection, all in one compact design.

Superior Sealing Performance
• Precision machining and manufacturing to accomplish superior sealing
• Ultra-tight sealing reduces product leakage and fugitive emissions
• Active envelope pressure gasket that expands around the base to increase seal • Standard product includes bonding strap and Slic pins

Industry Leading Flow Rates
• Higher flow capacity to protect from excessive pressure build up
• Precision machining and manufacturing to accomplish high flow rates

Direct Replacement & East Maintenance
• Direct replacement for any standard round API 12 thief hatch
• Designed for easy maintenance, thus reducing downtime and lowering operational cost
• Incorporates a mechanical lock system to be used with ha pad lock or lock out bar
