Introduction
The purpose of this manual is to guide installers, operators and technicians through the operation of a TS-550 evo
console. The TS-550 evo console incorporates the monitoring and alarm capabilities of preceding automatic tank gauges
with advanced technologies to supply tank and level data more accurately and efciently. This manual is also designed to
introduce technicians to the optional LCD Graphical User Interface, which is used as an input device to program system
conguration and maintain all applications from the front panel of the console. Overall safety issues, troubleshooting
information, start-up procedures, warranty, service and return policies, as dened in this manual, must be followed.
The TS-550 evo Fuel Management System consists of an open architecture, modular console that can run multiple Fuel
Management Applications simultaneously. It typically contains a color LCD touch screen user interface and a built-in
printer, but it can also be operated by a web-based remote interface. Magnetostrictive Liquid Level Probes inside of
the tanks provide the console with inventory and leak detection information. A variety of optional sensors can be used
to monitor containment spaces. TS-550 evo series consoles combine the power and exibility of computer-based open
architecture with a high speed modular bus design.

Applications
Applications are programs designed to function as a
platform for specic Inputs/Outputs. There are three
different applications available to the TS-550 evo console:
System:
This application is standard on all systems and monitors
the console’s operational status and manages software
options and upgrades. All preferences and conguration
settings are controlled by this application (e.g., display
options, clock and calendar). The system application is
standard on every console.
Fuel Management System (FMS):
The Fuel Management System application provides
inventory management and leak detection for tanks, lines
and sensors as well as tank, line and sensor control. This
application also allows users to print reports, tank tests
and line tests.
A broad range of liquid products can be leak-tested and
inventory-monitored using Magnetostrictive LL2 probes.
These probes come in a variety of lengths and typically
contain two oats for indicating both product and water
levels inside the of tank. Programmable limits can be set to
indicate high and low conditions.
Containment sumps, interstitial spaces, monitoring
wells and other areas can be monitored for water and
hydrocarbon intrusion using a wide range of optional
Standard and BriteSensors. These sensors come in 2-wire
(non-discriminating) and 3-wire (typically discriminating)
versions. These models are listed below and can be used
in any combination depending on site specications.
Secondary Containment Monitoring (SCM):
Secondary Containment Monitoring is a continuous
secondary containment monitoring system that monitors
the interstitial spaces of double walled tanks and sumps,
secondarily contained product and vapor return piping.
SCM is a software option that can be added to the TS-550
evo. The Secondary Containment Control Module (SCCM)
consists of a vacuum sensor, solenoid valve, mechanical
bypass valve, and vacuum manifold. SCM uses the
STP siphon port vacuum to evacuate the containment
space and AutoLearn® technology to determine the
characteristics of each secondary containment area that is
monitored. The SCCM unit comes in two models.
Standard Sensors
Standard sensors do not discriminate between liquid and
hydrocarbons and are typically 2-wire sensors.
TSP-DDS – Discriminating Dispenser sump Sensor
(conductivity strip and oats, liquid and vapor sensor)
TSP-DTS – Discriminating Turbine sump Sensor
(conductivity strip and oats, liquid and vapor sensor)
TSP-MWS – Discriminating ground water Monitoring
Well Sensor (oat and conductivity strip, liquid and vapor
sensor)
TSP-DVS – Discriminating Vapor well Sensor (vapor
sensor)
TSP-DMS - Discriminating Magnetostrictive Sensor
Modules
A modular bus consists of modules connected by a bus
backplane. Some modules are standard in all units, while
the type and number of other modules are dependent
on the site conguration and options purchased. Most
systems have empty slots available for future expansion or
can be expanded with an expansion console.
Standard Modules
Controller Module
Contains the primary controller and software applications
as well as the user interface and printer controls. The
module contains the Ethernet port, (2) USB ports, COMM
port 1, audible horn and an optional internal modem card.

User Interface
LED Indicators – Three LEDs below the front panel give
an “at-a-glance” indication of the system status. These
LEDs are standard on all systems. The green Power LED
indicates that the system power is on. The yellow Warning
LED gives indication that the console has detected a
malfunction or condition that has been deemed a Warning.
The red Alarm LED indicates that the system has detected
an alarm condition.
LCD Touch Screen – The color LCD touch screen is
the most commonly used user interface for the Fuel
Management System. This bright and colorful display
allows easy viewing in any lighting condition. Touching
certain buttons or segments of the screen will allow access
to menus or more detailed information. Do not use sharp
or pointed objects to operate the touch screen or damage
may result. A “Sleep Mode” screensaver can be activated
under Setup / Conguration / Sleep mode to automatically
turn off the back light after 5 minutes to extend the life of
the display. If improper operation of the touch screen is
noted, it may be necessary to calibrate the touch screen.
Please refer to the Routine Maintenance chapter of this
manual for calibration procedures.
Relay Module Provides 8 relay outputs (2-
Amp) which are typically used
to control the submersible
pump relays to provide pump
or dispenser shutdown when
line leak detection or other
applications are used. Not
used in combination with TPI.
10-Amp Relay Module Provides 6 relay outputs which
are typically used to control
the submersible pump relays
to provide pump or dispenser
positive shutdown upon alarm
conditions.
Input / Output Module Provides 8 AC or DC voltage
inputs that can range from 3
to 240 volts. Typically used for
vapor processors and generic
devices, but not for dispenser
hook signals. In addition, this
module also includes four
4-20 mA signal outputs which
are typically used to interface
to an external device, such
as a SCADA (Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition),
building monitoring system or
fuel level monitoring.
Alarms and Warnings
Alarms and warnings are designed to alert you with
specic details when a problem occurs so that you can
take appropriate corrective action. System hardware
failure warnings, tank related alarms, leak detection sensor
alarms, and line leak alarms will always notify the user in

Tank Testing
There are two types of Tank Testing available in the Fuel
Management Systems: Static and SCALD.
Static tests are run during quiet times when the tank is
thermally stable and the site is closed so that no dispensing
or deliveries will occur. There are two types of Static tests:
Monthly (0.2 gph) and Annual (0.1 gph). Static tests can
be scheduled to run on a Daily, Weekly or Monthly basis in
the Setup menu (Administrator use only). They can also be
started on demand from the tank detail screen. Make sure
that all testing conditions are met before starting a Static
Tank Test.
SCALD (Statistical Continuous Automatic Leak Detection)
tests run 24 hours a day and look for periods of quiet time
when the tank is thermally stable and no dispensing or
deliveries are occurring. These quiet periods are collected
and analyzed and the tightness of the tank is determined.
SCALD tests will update whenever possible and can
be setup to print automatically when they do. The more
common method is to schedule the latest SCALD test to
print out once a week, saving a signicant amount of paper
because SCALD tests can be generated multiple times a
day on a quiet tank.
Static and SCALD tests run independently of each other
and can be run at the same time. A SCALD test will likely
complete during the time that the Static test is running.
Static Testing
Terms
Threshold
– Test results must be within these
programmable limits to pass a leak test. There are Monthly,
Annual and Sentinel Mode Thresholds.
Sentinel Mode – Sentinel mode is designed to monitor the
product levels in your tank(s) when there isn’t supposed to
be any dispensing.
Condence – Level of testing
sensitivity indicating the probability
that the test will detect a leak. Higher
condence percentages will produce
more sensitive test results. Check
local regulations to verify acceptable
condence levels.
Slope (Tank Testing Reports) – A
ratio of the calculated rate of change
to the time the rate is measured.
Slope is affected by leaks and by
Time
Flow
(+) slope
No Leak
(–) slope
many other sources of interference.
A negative slope or decrease
indicates loss of product volume. A
positive slope or increase indicates a
rise in product volume.

also meet the requirements for Annual Tank Tightness
Testing for 0.1 gal/hr leaks of the National Work Group on
Leak Detection Evaluations (NWGLDE). Third Party Testing
Laboratory test results (for standard static tank leak tests)
are also available at http://nwglde.org/.
Why Test the Integrity of a Tank
In compliance with federal, state and local regulatory
policies, all tanks must be monitored for leaks due to
environmental and public safety/health concerns. Tank
tightness testing determines if there is a leak.

Tank Testing Requirements
Static Tank Testing is a standard feature of the Fuel
Management System. SCALD is an option that can be
ordered when purchasing the console or after initial
purchase by using the part number TS-TT.
Test Types
This system is designed to perform two types of static tests
to comply with regulatory policies.
• 0.1 GPH Annual Leak Test — Detects a rate increase or
decrease of product in the tank, other than dispensing
(no testing during dispensing), at a rate greater than 0.1
gallons per hour.
• 0.2 GPH Monthly Leak Test — Detects a rate increase
or decrease of product in the tank, other than
dispensing (no testing during dispensing), at a rate
greater than 0.2 gallons per hour.
Ideal Testing Conditions
Tank and environmental conditions play an important role
in passing results. Consider the following items when
scheduling or manually forcing a static leak test:
VariableExplanation
The level in the tank must submerge at least
Product Level
Temperature
Stability
Time of Day
Deliveries
Dispensing
the lowest RTD (temperature sensor) inside
the probe shaft.
A tank with more product inside is likely to be
stable thermally and allow for higher quality
results.
This variable ties in with temperature stability.
Though not likely, product in the tank may
dramatically rise and fall in temperature from
dawn to afternoon and then from dusk to night.
Typically, thermal issues affect Aboveground
Storage Tanks more often than Underground
Storage Tanks.
A period of time is required to wait without a
delivery between the last delivery and testing.
The time to wait is 4 hr 9 min for a 0.2 GPH
and 5 hr 18 min for a 0.1 GPH after a delivery
(in accordance with third party testing). This
time will allow the product to settle. If the wait
time is not observed, then the test may abort
or fail.
If dispensing occurs during a test, that test will
be aborted.
How to Manually Start Static Tests
This procedure requires User level privileges.
1. Starting at the Home screen, open the Quick Jump
menu.
2. Select Tanks and then click on which tank to start
a test.
3. Press the Control button.
4. Press the Test Type and choose either Monthly or
Annual.
Static Test Results
Pass
– A passing result ensures the integrity of the tank is
good.
Fail – Test failure will be indicated by a Warning light and/or
annunciator. Additionally, a report may print (if the console
is programmed to do so, see the TS-550 evo Programming
Guide p/n 000-2173)
Abort – The result has been stopped due to variations in
oat level and/or product temperature that are outside of
the leak test threshold. This may be caused by:
• Dispensing
• Loss of Probe Signal
• Delivery
• Rapid Temperature Change
• Theft
• Product Lower than the lowest RTD
• Pump Started
Incomplete – When the test does not collect enough data
before the programmed time limit ends, the test will be
Incomplete. When it’s necessary to obtain valid results for
compliance reasons, start the test manually.
16
Test Time
The test should be scheduled or manually
forced when the test will not exceed the
maximum leak test time. If the maximum time
is surpassed, an Incomplete result is likely
to occur. If scheduling or manually forcing a
test, take into account what the sites hours
of operation are to avoid a dispense during
testing. Doing this will prevent aborted and
incomplete tests.
SCALD (Statistical Continuous Automatic Leak Detection)
runs 24hrs a day performing 0.2 GPH tests on tanks at
sites that do not have enough quiet time to complete static
tests (some static tests may take up to eight hours to
complete).
SCALD Testing is available only if the option for Tank
Testing is enabled. This option can be ordered when
initially purchasing the console or afterwards. The part
number for this option is TS-TT for the TS-550 evo.
Why Continuously Test Tank Integrity
In compliance with federal, state and local regulatory
policies, all tanks must be monitored for leaks due to
environmental and public safety/health concerns. Tank
Integrity Tests determine whether there is a leak.
Since SCALD continuously runs statistical tank leak tests
during the inactive periods between product deliveries and
dispensing, it is particularly useful for:
• Operations that are open for business on a continuous
(24 hours, 7 days a week) schedule
• Operations that are open for business on a two-shift
schedule and where deliveries may occur at any time
during non-business hours (normally schedule tank leak
tests may require up to 8 hours of inactivity).

SCALD Testing Requirements
To perform SCALD testing, the SCALD software must be
enabled. To verify that the software is enabled:
1. Starting at the Home screen, open the Quick Jump
Menu.
2. Select Utilities from the QJM then select System.
3. Press the Software Options Button.
4. Under Software Options, Tank Testing will appear.
A “yes” in the Enabled column indicates that the
software has been purchased and is enabled.
When SCALD Tests
SCALD works by collecting quiet intervals in-between
dispensing. A “QI” is obtained when a thermally stable tank
is idle for 20 minutes with no dispensing, no deliveries
and no other movement of the probe oats. Once four QIs
are collected, the console will analyze the data and either
Pass, Fail, Incomplete, or Abort that test. The four QIs can
be collected over a period of several days or weeks.
SCALD Results
Pass
– A passing result ensures the integrity of the tank is
good.
Fail – Test failure will be indicated by a Warning light and/or
annunciator. Additionally, a report may print (if the console
is programmed to do so, see the TS-550 evo Programming
Guide p/n 000-2173).
Abort – The result is due to variations in oat level and/
or product temperature that are outside the leak test
threshold. This may be caused by:
• Dispensing• Rapid Temperature Change
• Delivery• Product Lower than the
lowest RTD (Resistance
Temperature Detector)
• Theft• Pump Started
• Loss of Probe Signal
Incomplete – When the test does not collect enough data
before the programmed time limit, the test is Incomplete.
When it is necessary to obtain valid results for compliance
reasons, start the test manually.
17
Reasons Why SCALD May Not Complete
• No Quiet Time
• SCALD needs four 20 minute QIs in order to
complete a test. These QIs are normally found in the
early morning hours. If the site is so busy that there
are no 20 minute periods of no dispensing, then
SCALD will not be able to complete a test.
• Temperature Instability
• If a site is receiving deliveries frequently and the
temperature of the fuel being delivered is several
degrees hotter/colder then the fuel in the tank,
SCALD will not be able to collect data due to thermal
instability interrupting quiet time. The temperature of
the fuel cannot change more than .01° F during a 20
minute QI.
• If a pump control relay is stuck closed and the pump
is running all of the time, the temperature in the tank
may be much higher than in the other tanks. Due to
this high temperature and the fact that the pump is
running, no QIs will be collected.
Note: On rare occasions conditions can arise that prevent
SCALD from getting enough QIs to complete a test.

Line Leak Detection is available only if the option for Line
Testing is enabled. This option can be ordered when
purchasing the console or after the initial purchase by
using the part number TS-ELLD. An AC Input, 4-20mA, and
either a relay module or the use of TPI will also be required
to perform Line Testing.
Line Leak Testing for all T5 series FMS consoles use
software rules to automatically run tests. Tests may be
started manually from the console or remotely using TSA.
AutoLearn software monitors line conditions by conducting
a multitude of electronic line pressure sensing tests.
Line Leak Detection is required in many areas to monitor
for potentially hazardous environmental contamination. In
the event of a leak, the system may provide positive pump
shutdown (to prevent further contamination) and display an
indicator light and on-screen description of the condition as
console alarm notications. A high intensity remote alarm
may also be used if applicable. After installation, the user
of the system must monitor the system to ensure that any
leak alarm and pump shutdown (indicating a line leak) is
dealt with promptly.
Line Leak Testing Requirements
To perform Line Leak testing, the Line Leak software
must be enabled. To verify that the Line Leak software is
enabled:
1. Starting at the Home Screen, open the Quick Jump
Menu.
2. Select Utilities from the QJM then select System.
3. Press the Software Options Button.
The LS500 LLD system can detect a leak from the check
valve in the pump to the solenoid valve at the dispenser —
assuming no other normally closed valve is in the pipeline
system. This system does not detect leaks from the fuel
storage tank. The LS500 should be used in applications
where site conditions are in accordance with Third Party
testing (as listed in the NWGLDE section of this chapter).

Test Cycles & Types
Once installed, calibrated and enabled, the LS500 will start a cycle of tests after the hook signal becomes inactive (i.e. a
nozzle is hung up). The transducers then monitor line pressure to ensure that pressure is sufcient to proceed with the
cycle. A Gross (3.0 GPH) Leak Test will begin immediately following the pressure test, if these options are enabled in setup.
When the Gross Test is complete with a pass result, the system will wait 30 minutes prior to monitoring the line for thermal
stability. When it determines that the line is stable, another Gross Test will be performed directly followed by a Monthly
(0.2 GPH) Leak Test. When the Monthly Test is complete with a pass result, the system then monitors the line for thermal
stability once again. When that the line is stable, another Gross Test will be performed followed by an Annual (0.1 GPH)
Leak Test. When the Annual Test is complete with a pass result, the system then waits 45 minutes prior to restarting the
cycle again.

A pressure up test will monitor line pressure from a static line to when the pump is turned on.
Dispenser pressure is tested with the hook applied to ensure that line pressure does not drop too
low while dispensing. This feature can be enabled/disabled in the programming.
When the dispenser hook is dropped and the pump turns off, line pressure decay is monitored and
compared to a learned decay. This test will not cause the pump to shut down — alarm only.
The Gross Test will begin after every dispense when the line is enabled or after every 45 minutes
of quite time (no dispensing or pump running) following a line pressure test. In ideal conditions, this
test will take approximately 5 minutes to complete. In the event of a failure, the system will attempt
to run the test again after 5 minutes. After two failures an indicator light and alarm will turn on and
the pump will be shutdown. A dispense or pump shutdown by another application during this test
will cause an Abort Alarm. This test can be enabled/disabled in the programming.
Before initiating a precision test, the LS500 will monitor the line for thermal variations. Testing for
thermal variations takes 1½ to 10 hours of inactivity.
If this option is enabled in the programming, the test will follow a thermal wait period and line
pressure test. In the event of a failure, the system will attempt to run the test again without
waiting. Upon three failures, an indicator light and alarm will turn on and the pump will shutdown if
programmed. A dispense or pump shutdown by another application during this test will cause an
Abort alarm. This test can be enabled/disabled in the programming.
If a line is learned and not enabled within a preset amount of time, then the console will show a
warning that the line is not enabled. This is to show that the line is not being monitored for leaks.
This is a continuous test that runs in the background. An alarm will occur if line pressure drops too
fast.
The LS500 will detect all hook signals (if wired properly) and the time that they remain active. If
the hook signal is active for too long, the console will indicate this condition with an alarm light and
sound.
If line pressure exceeds the maximum allowable pressure, the pump will shut down and an alarm
will light and sound. This test will run continuously when the line is enabled.
How to Manually Start Line Leak Tests
This procedure requires User level privileges.
1. Starting at the Home Screen, open the Quick Jump Menu.
2. Select Lines from the QJM.
3. Select the line to test.
4. Select Line Control.
5. Select the Test Type, either Force Gross, Force Annual or Force Monthly.

Line Test Results
Pass
– A passing result ensures that the line is free of
leaks; any variation in product stability is within permissible
thresholds.
Fail – Test failure will be indicated by an alarm light and/or
annunciator. Additionally, a report may print (if the console
is programmed to do so, see the TS-550 evo Programming
Guide p/n 000-2173).
Abort – There may not be an indication of an abort for
some tests. If a line is disabled manually or automatically
by another application, a test is manually initiated in the
middle of a cycle or a dispense occurs, then the test cycle
will abort the results for the current test.
Incomplete – If there aren’t at least two hours of inactivity
before a precision test, it may result in an incomplete test.
Pump Shutdown – Failing the maximum number of tests
consecutively will shut the pump down. A single catch
pressure test failure or pressure up test failure will also
shut the pump down.
Note: All conditions must be physically corrected to clear
alarm conditions. To clear alarms after correcting the
problem, go to lines / control and click reset alarm. Alarms
will clear automatically when conditions permit.

CONTINUOUS INTERSTITIAL TANK SYSTEM MONITORING METHOD (PRESSURE/VACUUM)
Certification:
Certified as equivalent to European leak detection standard EN 13160-2, Part 2, as a Class I leak detection
system.
Operating Principle:
System uses vacuum generated by the turbine pump to continuously maintain a partial vacuum within the
interstitial space of double-walled tanks and double-walled piping.
System is designed to activate a visual and acoustic alarm, and optional turbine pump shutdown before stored
product can escape to the environment.
System is capable of detecting breaches in both the inner and outer walls of double-walled tanks and doublewalled piping.
Alarm Condition:
System alarms when a liquid or air leak occurs which causes the interstitial vacuum to decrease (pressure to
increase) and the system is unable to maintain minimum vacuum.
System will also alarm if the interstitial vacuum level decreases at a rate exceeding manufacturer’s allowable
values.
llowable values are based on an “AutoLearn line leak algorithm.” The unit will record two curves (up curve and
down curve) while a calibrated leak orifice is connected to the interstitial space being monitored. The “up” curve
is learned while the vacuum pump is on and evacuating the interstice. The “down” curve is learned when the
vacuum pump is off and interstitial vacuum is decaying. During normal operation when the vacuum level is
between the upper and lower limits, the system is continuously comparing vacuum decay rates to the learned
curves stored in memory.
Applicability:
Underground double-walled tank, connected double-walled piping, and other connected interstitial spaces storing
gasoline, gasohol, diesel, heating oil #2, kerosene, aviation fuel, motor oil, water.
EN13160-2 requires the use of separate monitoring systems for separate USTs.
Manufacturer’s Specifications:
larm will activate when interstitial vacuum decreases to approximately 1 psi vacuum (approx. 2”Hg).
Normal operating vacuum for the system is between 2”Hg and 6”Hg.
System does not restrict the vacuum source to 85±15 liters/hour flow rate at the “Alarm On” vacuum level.
3
Volume of monitored interstitial space must not exceed 8 m
(2114 gal) for tanks and 10 m3 (2642 gal) for
piping.
When monitoring double-walled tanks, the system does not require a liquid stop valve, a condensate trap or
liquid sensors. Since the vacuum line is connected to the pump siphon port, any liquid in the vacuum line will be
returned to the tank.
Suction line must be located at lowest point of interstitial space.
Calibration:
Functional and operational safety tests should be performed in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
Initial calibration with known leak is performed at system installation, using an orifice supplied by the
manufacturer.

Interstitial space is tested continuously.
Vacuum source is the submerged turbine pump siphon port.
Presence of a water table above the leak point will allow water to enter the interstice rather than air or vapor.
The water would be detected in the same manner as fuel.
his system may not be compatible with all secondarily contained tanks and/or piping. Always consult with the
tank and/or piping manufacturer and the manufacturer’s applicable recommended installation practices before
installing this system, or damage may be caused to the tank or piping by its use.
