Important Safety Messages
INCON equipment is designed to be installed in association with volatile hydrocarbon liquids such as gasoline and diesel  fuel. Installing or working on this equipment means working in an environment in which these highly ammable liquids  may be present. Working in such a hazardous environment presents a risk of severe injury or death if these instructions  and standard industry practices are not followed. Read and follow all instructions thoroughly before installing or working  on this, or any other related, equipment.
As you read this guide, please be aware of the following symbols and their meanings:

This symbol identies a warning. A warning sign will appear in the text of this document when a potentially  hazardous situation may arise if the instructions that follow are not adhered to closely. A potentially hazardous  situation may involve the possibility of severe bodily harm or even death.
This is a caution symbol. A caution sign will appear in the text of this document when a potentially hazardous  environmental  situation  may  arise  if  the  instructions  that  follow  are  not  adhered  to  closely.  A  potentially  hazardous environmental situation may involve the leakage of fuel from equipment that could severely harm  the environment.
This symbol identies an electrical danger. An electrical danger sign will appear in the text of this document  when a potentially hazardous situation involving large amounts of electricity may arise if the instructions that  follow are not adhered to closely. A potentially hazardous situation may involve the possibility of electrocution,  severe bodily harm, or even death.
Follow all applicable codes governing the installation and servicing of this product and the entire system. Always lock out and tag electrical circuit breakers while installing or servicing this equipment and any related equipment. A potentially lethal electrical shock hazard and the
possibility of an explosion or re from a spark can result if the electrical circuit breakers are
accidentally turned on during installation or servicing. Please refer to the Installation and Owner’s Manual for this equipment, and the appropriate documentation for any other related equipment, for
complete installation and safety information.
Follow all federal, state and local laws governing the installation of this product and its associated systems. When no other regulations apply, follow NFPA codes 30, 30A and 70 from the National Fire Protection Association. Failure to follow these codes could result in severe injury, death, serious property damage and/or environmental contamination.
Warning

Warning
Warning
Warning
Always secure the work area from moving vehicles. The equipment in this manual is usually mounted underground, so reduced visibility puts service personnel working on this equipment in danger from moving vehicles entering the work area. To help eliminate these unsafe conditions, secure the area by using a service truck to block access to the work environment, or by using any other reasonable means available to ensure the safety of service personnel.
When the Tank Sentinel system is used to monitor tanks containing gasoline or other ammable
substances, you may create an explosion hazard if you do not follow the requirements in this manual carefully.
All wiring must enter the Tank Sentinel console’s enclosure through the designated knockouts. An explosion hazard may result if other openings are used.
All wiring from probes or sensors to the Tank Sentinel console must be run in conduit separate from all other wiring. Failure to do so will create an explosion hazard.
Substituting components could impair intrinsic safety. The Tank Sentinel 5 (T5) series consoles are intrinsically safe for sensors installed in – Class I, Division 1, Group D – hazardous locations. Substitution of components could make the energy limiting circuitry in the system ineffective and could cause an explosion hazard. Repairs to a T5 Series console or attached components should
only be performed by a qualied, factory-trained technician.

Overview
The TS-LS500 is a continuous product line leak detection system that monitors the primary pipe. This product is an  available option of Franklin Fueling Systems’ TS-550 and TS-5000 FMS consoles.
The TS-LS500 system includes the FMS application running on a T5 series console and a transducer. One transducer  is required per product line, which measures the line pressure. Line Pressure is created by the pump and static seating  pressure is metered by a pressure relief valve. Transducers (TS-LSU500) use the AutoLearn technology to continuously  evaluate the line conditions. 
Note:  The TS-LS500 requires pressure for leak tests and should only be installed in systems that are designed to obtain 
and hold this minimum static pressure. The system will report “learned with errors” if tests are run at less than  optimum pressure. 
Applications

To maintain optimal line pressure, Franklin Fueling makes the following recommendations for submersible pumps:
•   For FE Petro Submersible Pumps, use a Standard Check Valve  (part # 400988931).
•   For Red Jacket Submersible Pumps, use an adjustable functional element, adjusting the pump OFF pressure to be at  least 2 psi below the pump ON pressure.
Newer style Red Jacket Submersible Pumps do not have an adjustable functional element as an option. These  submersible pumps have a check valve that meets the LS500 pressure requirements.

Transducer Installation
1.  Apply UL Classied Gasoline / Oil resistant pipe dope thread sealant to the threads of the LSU500 Transducer and  use a 2 3/8”  open-end wrench to install it in the Leak Detector Port of the STP housing  (see Figure 1).
2.  Install Couplings, threaded Rigid Metal Conduit (RMC), and Explosion / Weather Proof Junction Boxes (J-Boxes)  in the STP sumps. For intrinsically safe wiring, run the transducer lead to the junction box. For explosion-proof  installations, run conduit to the top of the transducer.
3. 
Install threaded RMC and EYS ttings along with Transducer Cables (Belden #9365) from LS500 console to  the Explosion / Weather Proof J-Boxes. A licensed electrician should splice the cables together. If this wiring is  Intrinsically Safe it MUST NOT be run with any Explosion-Proof wiring or other non-Intrinsically safe wiring! Alpha cable #58411 (INCON #600-0062) must be used if using nonmetallic (PVC) conduit as allowed by local code.
