Sump Test System

Pg 1

TS-STS Overview

The TS-STS system includes a TS-STS console within a convenient portable case, leak testing probes with 50 feet of cable, and probe hanging hardware (slip rings and chain).

After all fittings within the sump are sealed, the sump is filled with a water-based test solution that covers all sump penetration holes. The probe is installed so the float is floating on the surface of the test solution. The TS-STS console is quickly programmed with the site name and address, number of sumps, the 7-digit code-names for each sump, and the correct Time/Day/Date before leak testing.

Pressing the Test key at the console keypad starts sump leak tests for all sumps. The test time is 15 minutes and tests for a level change greater than 0.002 inches. If the level of a sump drops more than the leak

limit during the test, the Sump Leak Test Report will show a fail result when the test is finished. Leak tests can also be programmed (scheduled) to start at desired times.

When finished, leak test reports will automatically print out at the console printer. Extra copies of this report can be printed using the report key. A newly completed Sump Leak Test will overwrite the previous results stored in memory. Save sump leak test reports and provide copies as evidence of compliance with regulations.

TS-STS Installation

1.) Required Materials:

a.) Tape to secure the probe cable b.) Safety cones & signs

c.) Grounded, 3-pronged extension cord

d.) Flat pieces of metal to suspend leak testing probe over sumps

2.) Work safely — install Safety Cones and Signs at the site

3.) The probes are precision instruments — handle with care!

4.) The STS probes are shipped with cables attached, do not remove the cable from the probe end... remove at the console case only.

5.) Inspect probes for proper float movement before use, then install probes as shown in Section 1

6.) Connect the yellow probe cables to the receptacles at the TS-STS

Make sure to line up keyways before inserting cable and

case.

tightening the screw-on connector.

7.) Locate the TS-STS case outside of the Hazardous Area and tape the cable down to prevent probe movement during the test and to reduce tripping hazards

Recommendation: Use a computer and the Tech version of System Sentinel™ to record site data, sump code-names, and test results. Test results can also be extracted from Comm Port 1 at

8.) Setup / Program the TS-STS console per Section 2

9.) Start sump leak test(s) on sumps that are ready

10.) Always clean, dry, and store probes in the probe carrying case after each use

11.) Test each of the probes on a monthly basis to ensure its ability to detect leaks. Install the probe in a test container and initiate a test. After 5 minutes, remove about 0.12 inches of water. When the test completes, the test report should show a Failed result if the probe is working properly.
