Code of Federal Regulations Title 40. Protection of Environment § 40.65.110 Standards:  Pumps, valves, connectors, and agitators in heavy liquid service;  pressure relief devices in liquid service;  and instrumentation systems

(1) Monitoring method. Pumps, valves, connectors, and agitators in heavy liquid service;  pressure relief devices in light liquid or heavy liquid service;  and instrumentation systems shall be monitored within 5 calendar days by the method specified in § 65.104(b) and (c) if evidence of a potential leak to the atmosphere is found by visual, audible, olfactory, or any other detection method, unless the potential leak is repaired as required in paragraph (c) of this section.

(2) Instrument reading that defines a leak. If an instrument reading of 10,000 parts per million or greater for agitators, 5,000 parts per million or greater for pumps handling polymerizing monomers, 2,000 parts per million or greater for all other pumps (including pumps in food/medical service), or 500 parts per million or greater for valves, connectors, instrumentation systems, and pressure relief devices is measured pursuant to paragraph (b)(1) of this section, a leak is detected and it shall be repaired pursuant to § 65.105, as applicable.
