Where is a liquid collection point typically installed?

A liquid collection point is typically installed in the vapor return piping as it serves a crucial function in vapor recovery systems. The primary purpose of this point is to manage and collect any liquid that may condense in the vapor lines during the vapor return process.

When fuel vapors travel through the vapor return piping, temperature changes can cause these vapors to cool and condense into liquid. If this liquid is not effectively managed, it can hinder the performance of the vapor recovery system and potentially lead to issues such as equipment damage or increased emissions. By installing the liquid collection point in the vapor return piping, any condensate can be effectively collected and routed back to the storage tanks or managed appropriately.

This solution optimizes the efficiency of the vapor recovery system, ensuring that vapors are effectively returned to the storage tanks without the risk of liquid accumulation interfering with the vapor recovery process.
