DropTubeBuilder

Cut overfill-prevention drop tubes right the first time. Get exact upper, lower, and total tube lengths for OPW, Franklin Defender, and EMCO valves—plus tank charts and a searchable dispenser & ATG error-code library, all built for the field.

What it does

Practical tools for petroleum service work—no fluff, just the numbers you need on site.

🧮 Precise cut lengths

Enter your tank measurements and get exact upper, lower, and total drop tube lengths for OPW 71SO, Franklin Defender, and EMCO overfill valves.

Why it's accurate

Real 95% math

Shutoff is solved at 95% of tank volume—the way a horizontal tank actually fills—instead of a rough 95% of height. The OPW method matches the 71SO worksheet, and the geometry follows the Georgia EPD drop-tube approach.

📊 Tank volume charts

Build a calibration chart from tank diameter, length, and capacity in 1/8-inch increments to find the level you need.

Set overfill valves where they belong, with a record you can export and keep.

Compliance-minded

Contractors & inspectors

Shutoff math grounded in the 95%-by-volume standard, not a height shortcut.

The compliance side of the same sites

USTex Guide

DropTubeBuilder lives at the fill riser and the dispenser. USTex Guide covers the paperwork and the regulations that come with the same tanks. It was built by Doug Metzker, the licensed technician who runs USTEX LLC, an independent UST and AST compliance testing firm in Jackson, Wisconsin, so it is written from the field rather than from a desk. In one place you get state by state UST regulations for all 50 states alongside 40 CFR Part 280, more than 200 state compliance forms, monthly walkthrough and annual inspection log generators, a testing frequency planner, manufacturer tank calibration charts, red tag rules, and plain language overviews of PEI RP300, RP400, RP900 and RP1200. When the job in front of you is a deadline, a form or an inspector rather than a cut length, that is where we send people.

  • State regulations
  • Compliance forms
  • Inspection logs
  • Testing schedules
  • Tank charts
  • PEI standards
  • Operator certification
