Safety Instructions
CAUTION
Read the installation instructions carefully. The Tank Sentinel
system is designed to be safe when correctly installed. It is possible to create
explosion hazards, health hazards, risk of death, and environmental hazards
through incorrect installation.
CAUTION
You must comply with state and local electrical codes as well as
the your National Electrical Code (U.S.A. – NFPA 70) and Automotive and Marine
Service Station Code (U.S.A. – NFPA 30A), or Canadian Electric Code (as
applicable), when installing the Tank Sentinel system.
WARNING
When the Tank Sentinel system is used to monitor tanks containing
gasoline or other flammable substances, you may create an explosion hazard if you
do not follow the requirements of this manual carefully.
ELECTRICAL DANGER
All wiring must enter the Tank Sentinel enclosure
through the designated knockouts. An explosion hazard may result if other
openings are used.
ELECTRICAL DANGER
You must run wiring from probes or sensors to the
Tank Sentinel console in conduits which are separate from all other wiring. Failure
to do so, will create an explosion hazard.
WARNING
Do not install the Tank Sentinel console in a flammable or
explosive hazardous location. An explosion could result.
ELECTRICAL DANGER
Make sure that AC line power to the console is
turned off during installation or maintenance. Lethal voltages are present inside the
console which could injure or kill you.
WARNING
Substitution of components could impair intrinsic safety. The Tank
Sentinel system is intrinsically safe for probes or sensors installed in – Class I,
Division 1, Group D – hazardous locations. Substitution of components could make
the energy limiting circuitry in the system ineffective. An explosion hazard could
result. Repairs to the Tank Sentinel system should be performed only by a
qualified, factory-trained technician.

TSP-LL2 Probe Floats
BriteSensors® are
sensors that digitally
communicates the
sensor–type and
alarm status of the
sensor. Most
BriteSensors can
discriminate between
water and
hydrocarbon products
and produces
different alarm codes
for each.
Brite Sensors are
not approved for
use in European
Union markets
where ATEX
approved devices
are required.
Standard sensors
do not use digital
data. They operate
like an ON–OFF
switch which is closed
when no liquid is
present
and
open
when a liquid is
detected.
Floats for 4-inch (101.6 mm)riser pipes, order:
TSP-IGF4 for Gasoline, or TSP-IDF4 for Diesel and fuel oils.
Floats for 2-inch (50.8 mm)riser pipes, order:
TSP-IGF2 for Gasoline, or TSP-IDF2 for Diesel and fuel oils, or

through incorrect installation.
Installation Procedure Overview – Steps
Step 1 Excavate down to the tanks to gain access to the bungs (openings) which will be
used to install the level probes, and interstitial leak detection sensors (USTs only).
Step 2 Install a 4 inch (101.6 mm) riser pipe on each tank for the level probe. This riser
must allow access into the tank. (Note: For tanks with a 2 inch (50.8 mm)bung
access, add a 4-to-2 inch (101.6 to 50.8 mm) reducer at the tank and then install a
4 inch (101.6 mm) riser. This configuration requires 2 inch (50.8 mm) floats — see
instructions provided).
Step 3 Install a 2 or 4 inch (50.8 or 101.6 mm) riser pipe (as required) on each tank for
each optional interstitial leak detection sensor. This riser must allow access to the
interstitial space between double wall tanks.
Step 4 Install a manhole around each riser (USTs only).
Step 5 Mount the Tank Sentinel console in a suitable indoor location.
Step 6 Install threaded, conduit between the manhole junction boxes, I.S. pull boxes, and
the console. Install EYS seal fittings before the pull boxes, and manhole junction
boxes (manholes apply to USTs only)
Step 7 With power off: Install the probe and sensor wiring to the Tank Sentinel console.
Use ONLY the cables and wire types specified in this manual (or the Direct Burial
Cable manual).
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW Page 1 - 13 1
Step 8 With power off: Install conduit and connect the line power to the console. Leave
the line power Circuit Breaker off at the electrical power panel until all wiring has
been verified correct.
Step 9 Install a separate telephone line for the optional modem / fax.
Step 10 With power off: Install optional accessories, conduit, and wiring to external
devices, such as discrete/run inputs or line leak detectors, as detailed in this
manual or in an installation addendum.
Step 11 With power off: Install optional conduits and wire external alarm devices, such as
a TS-RK (remote Alarm Acknowledge unit) and TS-RA1 or TS-RA2 (remote Tank
Overfill Alarm unit) as described in their Installation manual.
Step 12 Review and verify that all level probe wiring is completed in accordance with this
manual, and that all other devices (Sensors, External Devices, and Alarm units,
etc.) are wired correctly. Incorrect liquid-level probe wiring, or leak-detection sensor
wiring, will damage the console at start-up.
Step 13 Reinstall all terminal safety shields/covers. Power up and program the Tank
Sentinel
®
system for your application, as described in the Programming Guide.
Step 14 Test and then install each of the level probes in their tanks.
Step 15 Test and then install the leak detection sensors between the walls of the double
wall tanks, in liquid sumps, or other locations as described in their installation
manual ...an installation manual is provided with each type of sensor.
Step 16 Seal all tested probe and sensor EYS conduit fittings with epoxy and then reinstall
all junction box cover gaskets and covers.

Riser Pipes for Level Probes
The riser pipe and manhole installation for the level probe is shown in Figure 2-1. If
you are installing the Tank Sentinel probe in an existing tank, which is buried, you
must excavate down to the top of the tank. The Tank Sentinel liquid level probe
must be installed in a four inch riser pipe. Riser pipes should be made of 4 inch,
threaded, ANSI schedule 40 pipe, with 4-8 NPT (DN115 BSP 4-11) male threads at
both ends. This method of installation makes it possible to access the level probe
for service or replacement if necessary.
®
system.
The probe shaft must extend into the riser pipe at least 5 inches (127 mm) to avoid
submerging the head of the probe if a tank is overfilled.
NOTE
Information Required
If possible, the level probe should be installed at or near the center of the tank. This
will provide the most accurate volume readings.
For each tank installed, you will need the tank manufacturers’ documentation to find
the: Tank Model Number, Tank Size, Bung Access Location and Sizes, and the
Tank Strapping Table or “Tank Chart”. This data will also be used when the Tank
Sentinel® system is setup / programmed — Do Not discard this information.
The length of the riser pipe installed will depend on the tank diameter, probe length
and depth at which the tank is buried. From these dimensions, it is possible to
determine a minimum and maximum riser length. The maximum tank diameter and
the overall length of standard Tank Sentinel probes are listed in Table 2-1.

Riser Pipe Length Calculations
Minimum Riser Length
Start with the overall length of the probe, add 5 inches (127mm) for the support
chain, and subtract the tank diameter. See Example minimum riser length
calculations (below) for a TSP-LL2-101 probe in two different sized tanks.

choice of probe for the tank diameter, or insufficient burial depth.
It is recommended that the top of the riser be no more that 18 inches (457 mm)
maximum below grade level to provide easy access for service.
RISER PIPES & MANHOLES Page 2 - 3 2
Riser Installation — Level Probe
After excavating down to the top of the tank, locate the bung that will be used to
install the riser pipe and level probe. Apply thread sealant to the “tank-side” of the
threaded riser pipe, remove the pipe plug from the tank bung, and install the 4 inch
(102 mm) riser pipe in this bung.
NOTE
For tanks with 2 inch (50.8 mm) bungs, add a 4-to-2 inch (101.6 to 50.8 mm)
reducer at the tank and then install a 4 inch riser (this configuration requires 2-inch
floats). For tanks with 3 inch (76.2 mm) bungs, add a 4-to-3 inch (101.6 to 76.2
mm) reducer at the tank and then install a 4 inch (101.6 mm) riser (this
configuration also requires 2-inch (50.8 mm) floats).
CAUTION
When installing a riser pipe in a steel tank, applicable codes of
practice may require that a nonconductive isolation bushing be installed between
the tank and riser pipe. It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with all applicable
federal, state and local codes.
Manhole Installation
Install an approved manhole at each riser pipe location. Manholes of 14" (355.6
mm) minimum diameter are recommended. To make sure that there is adequate
clearance for the installation of the electrical junction box and for service, position
the manhole over the riser carefully — offset the manhole around the riser pipe. It is
recommended that the bottom of the manhole be filled with crushed stone to
facilitate drainage. Do not cover the top of the riser with fill material, it must remain
accessible for service, and for probe installation. (Manholes are not required with
AST applications.)

none = all products
Before Backfilling
In order to achieve the highest possible accuracy from the Tank Sentinel system, a
number of tank measurements must be made before the tank excavation is
backfilled. This data is used to calculate the tank tilt offset for tanks that are not
level. The best method uses calculated product and water offsets that virtually
“moves” the probe to the center of the tank. If the probe is mounted in the center of
the tank, then no corrections are required (offsets = 0.0). Alternatively, if the data
to calculate tank tilt is not known, or if the tank is not seriously tilted, then use +/–
offsets to adjust the probe readings to match the stick readings at fill.
Figure 3 - 1 shows the tank tilt formula to use when the fill tube and probe are on
opposite sides of the tank center-line. Figure 3 - 2 shows the formula to use when
the fill tube and probe are on the same side of the tank center-line.

Calculating Tank Tilt
Water Offset
Stick the tank to ensure that there is no water present. The water offset in the ATG
setup programming can be used to “zero” the water level reading of the ATG.
Typically, a small negative number in the water offset is needed to zero the water
float ...be sure to program the gradient before figuring out the water offset.
Product Offset
See next page. Fill in the blank equations with the appropriate & correct values for
each tank. Perform the mathematical operations indicated in the formula used to
calculate the tank tilt offset for every tank. Write the answers in the blank spaces.
