Section 4002.4 - Liquefied Petroleum Gas and Anhydrous Ammonia Liquid-Measuring Devices. (3.32.)(a) Temperature Compensation. All liquefied petroleum gas measuring devices with a manufacturer's maximum rated flow capacity exceeding 20 gallons per minute shall be equipped with automatic means to correct the volume delivered to the volume at 60 °F. The automatic temperature compensator shall be connected, operable and in use at all times.(b) The provisions of Handbook 44, Section 3.32., S.3.1, Liquefied Petroleum Gas and Anhydrous Ammonia Liquid-Measuring Devices Code shall not apply to equipment located at wholesale loading terminals when used exclusively for the purpose of filling transports utilizing the spray fill, or when the delivery is being made simultaneously to truck and trailer from one meter when the product being delivered into the truck and trailer is being purchased by the same person.(c) Wholesale Deices Equipped With Automatic Temperature Compensating Systems. On wholesale devices equipped with automatic temperature compensating systems, normal tests: (1) Shall be conducted with the temperature compensating system connected and operating by comparing the compensated volume indicated or recorded to the actual delivered volume corrected to 60 °F; and(2) May be conducted with the temperature compensating system deactivated, comparing the uncompensated volume indicated or recorded to the actual delivered volume. The first test shall be performed with the automatic temperature compensating system operating in the "as found" condition. On devices that indicate or record both the compensated and uncompensated volume for each delivery, the tests in (1) and (2) may be performed as a single test.
(d) Vapor-Return Line. During any metered delivery of liquefied petroleum gas from a supplier's tank to a receiving container, there shall be no vapor-return line from the receiving container to the supplier's tank.(e) Signs. Any retail liquefied petroleum gas dispenser, with the exception of those mounted on a motor vehicle, shall display a sign showing the price schedule of all transactions. The sign shall be where it is plainly discernable to the customer. All letters, figures or numerals used to express the price schedule shall be at least three-quarters of an inch in height.Cal.
