VAPOR GUARD©  GAUGE POLE LADDER COVERS
Vapor Guard Ladder Cover
Mesa Vapor Guard Gauge Pole Ladder Covers (GPLC)
are an innovative solution to emission reductions in Internal
Floating Roof Tanks (IFRT). GPLCs greatly reduce hydrocarbons from escaping through slots in Slotted Gauge Poles. Tank owners benefit by reducing product emissions while meeting environmental regulations. GPLCs are manufactured using MesaThane 6036 urethane seal material to form a casing around the Slotted Gauge Pole Ladder. (Mesalon 7010 is available for specialty applications). The optional Transition Box provides a seal at the ladder negotiator area on top of the floating roof.

Vapor Guard Ladder Cover

In April 2000, the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) published a voluntary agreement in the Federal Register
(65 FR 19891) for the control of Gauge Pole emissions. The agreement specifies the "flexible enclosure system" as a
pre-approved technology for the control of emissions from Slotted Gauge Poles. Mesa Gauge Pole Ladder Covers are at the forefront of this technology. Regulations also state “no readily observable emission pathway” allowed for slotted guide pole. (65 FR 2336)
