Important Safety Messages

Franklin Fueling Systems (FFS)/Healy 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 fl 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:

Warning

This symbol identifi 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.

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 fi 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 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.

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.

Warning

Important: All electrical and hydraulic plumbing fi ttings referred to in these instructions must be UL “listed” or

Purpose:

This procedure describes the tools, methods and skill levels required to install an INCON/Franklin Fueling Systems model
TS-DTU, Data Transfer Unit in UL Approved Dispensers. Each installation of a TS-DTU in a dispenser requires that a TS­DRK, dispenser installation kit, be used. The TS-DRK is ordered by specifi c dispenser types. Please refer to the Table
1 for the correct TS-DRK model. Only INCON/Franklin Fueling Systems trained and certifi ed contractors will be able to
perform these retrofi ts or warranty will be void. The installer shall be a skilled petroleum technician and thoroughly familiar
with the requirements of State, Federal and local codes for installation and repair of gasoline dispensing equipment. Also,
they shall be aware of all the necessary safety precautions and site safety requirements to assure a safe and trouble free
installation. NOTE: All electrical fi ttings referred to in these instructions must be UL “listed” or “recognized” for the purpose.

Important Safety Messages

Before installing the equipment, read, understand and follow:

- The National Electrical Code (NFPA 70)

- The Automotive and Marine Service Code (NFPA 30A)

- Any national, state and local codes that may apply.

The failure to install the equipment in accordance with NFPA 30A and 70 may adversely affect the safe use and operation
of the system. Accurate, sound installations reduce service calls: Use experienced, licensed contractors that practice
accurate, safe installation techniques. Careful installation provides a sound troubleshooting framework for fi eld repairs and
can eliminate potential problems.

1. Read all instructions before beginning.

2. Follow all safety precautions:

• Barricade the area.

• Do not allow vehicles or unauthorized people in the area.

• Do not smoke or allow open fl ames in the area.

• Do not use power tools in the work area.

• Wear eye protection during installation.

3. Use circuit breaker for multiple disconnects to turn off power and prevent feedback from other dispensers.

Attaching the Mounting Bracket

For each dispenser installation, the mounting bracket will
need to be attached to the back side of the TS-DTU. Refer
to each dispenser installation instruction as it will specify
the correct orientation of the bracket

1. Remove the TS-DTU enclosure cover and set it
aside.

2. Find the correct orientation for the mounting
bracket in the dispenser-specifi c instructions.

3. Find two screws, washers, and star nuts from the
TS-DTU/P kit. Insert the two screws into the two
mounting holes of the front face of the TS-DTU
enclosure.

4. Put the mounting bracket on the side of the DTU
enclosure and install a washer and star nut.

Figure 6: Mounting Bracket On Bottom Of Unit

Intrinsically Safe Wiring

The Intrinsically safe wiring is the same for all type of
dispensers. The wires from the top end of a potted nipple
should be connected to the TS-DTU module and from the
bottom end to the TS-VFM and TS-VPS. These wires
connect intrinsically safe devices (TS-VFM and TS-VPS) to
the associated apparatus (TS-DTU) and therefore must be
protected in non-hazardous area where TS-DTU is
located.
