TS-TPI Installation and Wiring Guide

ELECTRICAL DANGER ALWAYS lock out and tag electrical circuit breakers while installing or servicing this equipment, pumps and related equipment. A potentially lethal electrical shock hazard and the possibility of an explosion or fire from a spark can result if the electrical circuit breakers are accidentally turned on during installation or servicing.

ELECTRICAL DANGER Verify that no voltage exists before working-on, or wiring-to circuits described in this manual, otherwise lethal electrical-shock-hazards could exist, which may cause injury or death. Note: circuit breaker contact(s) can fail to open even when the circuit breaker lever indicates off.

ELECTRICAL DANGER Electronic line leak detectors start submersible pumps automatically to run leak-tests at full line pressure. Automatic pump starts occur between periods of product dispensing when there is no product being dispensed. BEFORE performing any installation or service (such as replacing fuel-filters) – tag and lock-out all electrical power sources to the submersible pump(s), pump controllers, and dispensers and relieve fuel-line pressure. Failure to turn off power and relieve fuel-line pressure before work is started can result in: Electrical shock, fuel spills, and fire or explosion hazard that may result in injury or death.

WARNING DO NOT smoke while working on or near this equipment. Highly flammable vapors may be present in the environment where this equipment is installed or serviced. Failure to follow this instruction could result in a serious fire or explosion.

WARNING Follow all federal, state, and local laws governing the installation of this product and the entire system. When no other regulations apply, follow NFPA 30, 30A, and 70 from the National Fire Protection Association. Failure to do so could result in serious property damage, environmentalcontamination, and severe injury or death.

WARNING Turn off all pump power and relieve pipeline pressure (reference and follow the pump manufacturer’s directions about how to do this). The pipeline from the submersible pump to the dispenser, may be under pressure. If the line leak detector/plug (or any other part of the submersible pump and fuel line) is removed without first relieving pressure, then a product spill will occur. This can cause an environmental, fire, or explosion hazard, and may result in injury or death.

WARNING Avoid personnel injury or property damage: keep moving vehicles and unauthorized personnel out of the hazardous work area. Use Safety Cones, Barricades, Warning Signs, and Safety Tape, and block access with Barricades / service trucks to the work area to avoid injury or property damage.

SAFETY

TS-TPI Installation and Wiring Guide

WARNING Allow no source of combustion near the work area. Be careful not to cause sparks when working on fuel dispensing equipment. Failure to follow these directions may cause an explosion hazard, which could result in property damage and death.

WARNING These containment sumps can trap dangerous amounts of hydrocarbon vapors.

If these vapors are inhaled they could cause dizziness or unconsciousness. If the vapors were ignited they could explode causing serious injury or death.

CAUTION Refer to all applicable Federal, State, City and local codes, your National

Electric Code (NEC), and the Automotive and Marine Service Station Code (NFPA 30A in the USA) before installation or maintenance. This installation is designed for submersible pumps which have a Pump Control box in the station. If a pump control box does not exist, then the system must be retrofitted to add a pump control box in the facility to comply with Codes.

CAUTION Before entering a containment sump check for the presence of hydrocarbon vapors, if vapor levels are unsafe ventilate the sump with fresh air. While working in the sump periodically check the atmosphere in the sump, if vapors reach unsafe levels exit the sump and ventilate it.

CAUTION ALWAYS have a second person standing by for assistance when working in or around a containment sump. Electronic and electrical petroleum monitoring equipment is often housed in containment sumps designed to trap hazardous liquid spills and prevent contamination of the environment.

CAUTION Petroleum is carcinogenic – use adequate protection to avoid health hazards.

ALWAYS cleanup and dispose of used absorbent/rags and petroleum resistant gloves in approved waste containers. Cleanup refuse and dispose of these immediately to avoid personnel injury from vapors or direct skin contact to also avoid possible fire or environmental safety hazards.

2 TS-TPI INSTALLATION & WIRING

Overview

The TS-TPI Turbine Pump Interface is a communication device that allows the INCON TS-1001, TS-2001 Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) or other devices to communicate with the turbine pump controllers (TPC). The TS-TPI is available as a stand alone unit, which requires its own input power, and as an integrated factory installed option in the TS-LS300 AutoLearn Line Leak Detector. The TS-TPI allows the ATG or other device to receive pump status information and, depending on the type of TPC, controls the pump.

In this chapter a brief description of each application is presented as well as the wiring of each component for the particular application. Please contact Franklin Fueling System Technical Support, (800)984-6266 if the TS-TPI is to be used in any other application.

Specific details of installation and the general programming instructions for the ATG is found in the Tank Sentinel Installation Guide (part number 000-1050). Specific programming instructions concerning the TS-TPI with the ATG will be covered in this Guide.

Look for your specific application on the following pages. Wire the components according to the wire diagram and then go to the next chapter “Tank Sentinel/TS-TPI Interface” for information on the features of the TS-TPI. The rest of the chapters provide instruction for programming the ATG to take full advantage of the TS-TPI.

Here are the application options covered in this guide:

TS-ATG with TS-TPI and TS-LS300 AutoLearn Console

TS-ATG with TS-TPI, TS-LS300 AutoLearn Console and TPCs

TS-ATG with TS-TPI and two TS-LS300 AutoLearn Consoles

TS-ATG with TS-TPI, two TS-LS300 AutoLearn Consoles and TPCs

TS-ATG with Stand alone TS-TPI and TPCs

Stand alone TS-TPI with TPCs

ELECTRICAL DANGER Verify that no voltage exists before working-on, or wiring-to circuits described in this manual, otherwise lethal electrical-shock-hazards could exist, which may cause injury or death. Note: circuit breaker contact(s) can fail to open even when the circuit breaker lever indicates off.

ELECTRICAL DANGER BEFORE performing any installation or service lock-out and tag all electrical power sources to the submersible pump(s), pump controllers, and dispensers and relieve fuel-line pressure. Electronic line leak detectors start submersible pumps automatically to run leak-tests. Automatic pump starts occur between periods of product dispensing when there is no product being dispensed.

TS-TPI Installation and Wiring Guide

3TANK SENTINEL/TS-TPI INTERFACE

Overview

The Turbine Pump Interface (TS-TPI) hardware has been developed to facilitate communications of the Turbine Pump Controllers (TPC) operating conditions with the INCON Tank Sentinel Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) consoles via the RS-485 port.

The integration of ATG, TS-TPI and TPC allows the ATG to intervene when pumps experience certain fault conditions by resolving the fault and enabling the pump to continue dispensing fuel. In addition to this, the ATG keeps an alarm history to aid in troubleshooting. A technician can review an alarm history report at the site or remotely via System Sentinel® and System Sentinel Anyware® .

The TS-TPI requests status and fault conditions of the TPCs. This information is transmitted to the ATG on demand. The ATG can then make this status available for purposes of:

Displaying, Printing and Faxing Pump Controller Status

Resetting Pump Controllers

Making Pump Controller Status available to System Sentinel® and System Sentinel Anyware®

Basic Operation Features

There are several basic operation features listed below and detailed further in separate chapters of this manual.

Monitor, Record and Reset Pump Controller Faults

The primary feature is that the ATG maintains the state of the Pump controller such that it continues to run and function without user intervention. The Pump Controller will stop a pump when a fault condition exists. The ATG monitors pump controllers through the RS-485 port for fault conditions. When fault conditions are received, the ATG will manage them by reporting alarms, silencing the audible alarms on the controllers, and resetting the controller when appropriate.

Fault Diagnostic Capabilities

The secondary feature provides fault detection diagnostics. The ATG will take control of the pumps when certain fault conditions are active in the ATG. For example, if a site has multiple tanks of the same product and one of the tanks gets overfilled, the ATG will make the over filled tank the priority tank, even if it is not programmed as the priority tank, until the over fill conditon is corrected. Pump Controller alarms have been added to the alarm processing code of the tank gauge.

Level Management

The third feature allows a customer to utilize the ATG to control the “mode” the pumps use to draw down product in two or more tanks with the same product. The “Leveling Mode” alternates the pumps so that the tank levels are equal as the tanks are being drawn down. The “Priority Mode” gives one pump priority over the others while it draws product down. A pump remains in “Priority Mode” until an user specified reserve percentage level is reached. The tank gauge then gives priority to another pump and it then draws down the product from another tank.
