Warning

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 Fuel Management System 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 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 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. TS-550 evos 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 TS-550 evo console or attached components should only be performed by a qualied,

factory-trained technician.

Weatherproof Junction Boxes

Minimum 16 cubic inch (406.4 cubic mm) weatherproof 
junction box, cover, and cover gasket for the manholes 
of: liquid level probes and leak detection sensors. See 
our sales literature for part numbers for ½ and ¾ inch 
(12.7 mm and 19.05 mm) conduit junction boxes and 
recommended manufacturers. Also use ¾ to ½ inch (12.7 
mm to 19.05 mm) bushings for probe/sensor compression 
ttings.

Use a weatherproof metal pull box for combining several 
circuits that will run into the TS-5 Series console through 
one or more conduits. Use a separate weatherproof metal 
pull box to combine intrinsically safe (IS) liquid level probe 
and leak detection sensor wiring. Do not run other non-
intrinsically safe wiring within the IS pull box. Run ½ or ¾

Splice Connector Kits Must Be Used — Warranty
Requirement

Use the Franklin Fueling Systems-approved, moisture­resistant, no-strip splice connectors for liquid level probe 
and leak detection sensor wires. You may order the TSP­KW30, which contains 30 of the Franklin Fueling Systems­approved, moisture-resistant connectors.

Using moisture resistant splice connectors will:

•   Reduce/eliminate corrosion of the wire connections from 
repeated exposure to water condensation, which causes 
eventual signal loss and system failure.

•   Reduce/eliminate equipment damage from water 
ooding around the connectors, which causes short­circuit damage.

Thread Sealant (UL Classied)

Use a non-hardening, “stay-soft,” thread sealant, or 
equivalent, to seal and waterproof all tank riser pipe 
threads. In addition, the thread sealant (or “pipe dope” 
as it is commonly known) should also be chemically 
non-reactive to the product in the tank(s). Apply thread 
sealant to seal/waterproof all outdoor electrical conduit 
tting threads including the hole plugs at the weatherproof 
junction boxes.

Riser Pipes

ANSI Schedule 40  (or chemically non-reactive) – 4 inch 
(101.6 mm) (8 NPT) riser pipes for liquid level probes.

The manufacturer’s Tank Chart and other documentation 
will be used for installation and programming, and possibly 
for future reference. Keep this information — do not
discard it.

Console Installation

Console Location

The location that you select to install the console must be 
indoors in an area classied as non-hazardous (see the 
console specications table at the beginning of the Wiring 
the Console & Modules chapter for further information). 
To get the maximum benet from this system, install the 
console where personnel can easily make use of it; mount 
it at eye level for operator convenience. Mount the console 
level on a vertical surface between 2 feet (0.6 m) and 
6 feet (1.9 m) high using the appropriate fasteners. For 
European applications, the console must be located in a 
pollution degree 2 environment per IEC60664.

Mounting the Console

The TS-550 evo consoles must be

Warning

Warning

mounted in a location where explosive

or ammable vapors are not present,

otherwise an explosion hazard will be
created which can result in severe injury,
death, serious property damage and/or
environmental contamination.

Leave a minimum of two inches (5.1 cm)
of space around the console open to
allow for ventilation, communication port
connections, conduit and wiring. If the
ventilation louvers located on the sides
of the TS-550 evo are obstructed, the unit
may overheat and stop functioning as
intended.

Four mounting tabs are available on the outside corners 
of the console. Select fasteners that have sufcient load 
carrying capacity and which are appropriate for wall 
construction – a fully equipped TS-550evo console can 
weigh as much as 40 pounds (18 kg), so make sure that 
your fasteners (and mounting surface) can adequately 
support that much weight. In addition, plan ahead to 
make sure that there is enough room around the console 
for: conduit coming into the unit, communication port 
connections, possible incoming probe or sensor wiring, 
and for the console door to fully open for easy access.

Note:  For questions concerning standard installation 

materials to be used for the TS-550 evo console, 
please refer to the Standard Installation Materials 
section of this manual.

When installing additional modules, Franklin Fueling

and IS modules from right to left. In this scenario, all 
unused slots will be concentrated in the middle of the

allows for the possibility of adding future modules to the 
system without needing to rewire those devices already 
in place. It’s also a good idea to always start wiring your 
module at the bottom-most set of channels (usually 
Channel 1) to further future-proof your installation and

Controller Module (CM)

The Controller Module (CM) is a non-intrinsically safe 
module that acts like the brain of your console. The CM 
handles all of the communication between the modules 
and then sends that information to your output devices. 
You can use the LCD touch screen LCD or external printer 
(depending on model and conguration) as output devices 
to communicate with your system. The CM links to the 
status lights on the front of the console and the LCD via 
exible cables.

Flexible Cable Connectors

The exible cables are installed at the factory and is just 
long enough to allow the door to fully open. They are 
protected from high power wiring by the metal shroud 
attached to the CM. The cables should not be deformed, 
but should rather be freely folded back into the shroud so 
that they do not get pinched when the door is closed. If the 
exible cables do become detached though, they can easily 
be reattached.

To reattach the exible cables to the connectors, identify 
the two sides of each end on both cables: there are metal 
bands on one side and no metals bands on the other. The 
exible cables connect to the CM by inserting one end of 
each cable into the LCD connector with the cables’ metal 
bands facing to the left so that a metal to metal connection 
is made with the LCD’s connector pins.

After the exible cables have been correctly inserted all the 
way into each of the LCD connectors there will be no metal 
showing above the connection. Once the exible cable 
connector is properly attached to the CM’s LCD connector, 
hook it up to the corresponding connector on the insid
your console’s door by making the same kind of metal-to­metal connection that you made while inserting it into the 
CM’s faceplate.

Also, secure the TS-550 evo console’s

Input/Output Module (IO)

The Low Voltage Input / Output Module is a non-intrinsically safe module that provides eight separate AC or DC voltage inputs 
that can range from 0 to 240 volts. In addition to the AC / DC inputs, the IO module also includes four 4-20mA signal outputs.

IO Module Specications

Number of Channels: 8 optically isolated inputs

4 analog outputs

Input Voltage Rating:

Input Current (each): 2 mA RMS

The AC / DC inputs are NOT dry contact inputs (there are 2 dry contact inputs on the power supply). Even though the 
IO Module can accept AC line voltage levels, it is  not intended to be used as a substitute for the AC Input Module for 
dispenser hook inputs. Dispenser hook signals often have leakage currents that could cause false ‘on’ signals when used 
with the IO Module.

Important: Use caution if both low voltage and high voltage signals are used simultaneously for the voltage

inputs. Use agency approved wire rated at 600V for safety and always make sure terminal connections
are tight and that no loose wire strands exist.

The IO Module’s four 4-20mA signal outputs can be used to interface to an external device such as a SCADA 
(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system or a building monitoring system. Typically, data such as tank levels or 
line pressures can be sent via the 4-20 outputs.

Important: The IO Module supplies 4-20mA loop power. Do NOT connect it to an external device that supplies

loop power or use an external power supply for the loop. Doing so may damage the IO and/or the
external device. For similar reasons DO NOT connect the IO Module’s 4-20mA outputs to the 4-20mA
inputs of the 4-20mA Input Module. The 4-20mA Input Module is intrinsically safe and cannot be used
with the non-intrinsically safe IO Module; connecting the two together may damage either or both
modules.

10 Amp Relay Module (10ARLY)

The 10 Amp Relay Module is a non-intrinsically safe module that has 6 
identical Form C output channels. Each channel has a fuse and three 
terminals. Each channel can be congured as NO or NC with the power 
off by wiring to the appropriate terminals. A TS-550 evo console can 
accommodate up to 18 outputs (6 outputs on up to 3 modules) as space 
allows. The diagrams below illustrate two examples of positive shutdown 
upon alarm conditions.

Intrinsically Safe Module Wiring

Always lock out and tag electrical circuit

Danger

Important: Intrinsically safe wiring cannot be run in

Franklin Fueling Systems recommends that each run of IS 
wiring not exceed 1500 feet (450 m) using any 2-conductor 
shielded cable or the cables/wires recommended in the 
Standard Installation Materials chapter. If you are not using 
the recommended cables/wires as set out in the Standard 
Installation Materials chapter or need to run wiring beyond 
1500 feet (450 m), then please contact Technical Support.

The IS modules in the TS-550 evo console were certied as 
associated apparatuses using the “Entity Concept.” Under 
this concept, the IS apparatus (eld device) has assigned 
parameters which, when properly matched to those of an 
associated apparatus, will constitute an intrinsically safe 
system. If there are none available however, values of 60 
pF / foot (200 pF / m) for capacitance per wire pair and 0.2 
uH / foot (0.7 uH / m) for inductance may be used. Refer to 
the associated apparatus’s control drawing for acceptable 
cable run length calculations.

The 3WSNS has also been evaluated using the “System 
Concept” for the specic sensors indicated on page 21. 
When these sensors are used, cable must be limited to 
1500 feet.

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.

the same conduit as non-intrinsically safe
wiring. Conduit knockouts for IS and non-

IS module wiring are clearly identied in

Figure 6 on page 10 for your reference.

IS modules can be identied by their blue

faceplates and should always be installed to
the right of the moveable isolation barrier.

If local codes do not require the use of
conduit, cable glands must be used at all
enclosure knock-outs.
Gaps larger than 0.06 inch (1.5 mm) will
violate safety approvals. Be certain to
provide adequate IS and non-IS wire
separation.

Probe Module (PRB)

The Probe Module (PRB) gathers data from probes and presents 
that information to the Controller Module (CM) for use in inventory 
reconciliation and reports. Each PRB can accomodate 12 probes 
and the system as a whole can accept a total of 36 probes (3 
modules with 12 inputs each) if space allows. Besides working with 
LL2 mag probes, the PRB also works with the TSP-DMS sensors 
for containment sump monitoring.

Note:  There are 8 inputs in the TS-608’s Probe Module.

Note: All components located in the hazardous area must be 

Third Party Certied and have appropriate Entity Parameters (see Control Drawing 000-1722 in the back of this
