Unless stated otherwise, instructions in this manual refer to both levels of site preparation.
IN–TANK PROBES
Magnetostrictive Probes are capable of performing precision tank testing, as described by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency, at [0.38 litres per hour (0.1 gph) and 0.76 litres per hour (0.2 gph)] when
combined with the in-tank leak testing features of a TLS Console.
Determining Mag Probe Length For Installation In A Dedicated Riser
1. Measure the distance from the bottom of the tank to the top of the probe manway, or the 2-, 3- or 4-inch (50,
76, or 102mm) tank opening - this is the minimum probe length (ref. Figure 2-1).
2. The probe canister must be within the riser pipe (minimum length of 10 inches [254mm]).

WARNING
NOTICE
Health and Safety
GENERAL
Ensure that all local council, U.K. and E.C. laws and regulations are complied with. Also ensure that all recognised
safety codes are followed.
Every person working with Veeder–Root equipment is expected to take every safety
precaution possible in the installation of the TLS-IB and probes.
Contractors must ensure that supervisory personnel on the installation site are aware of their presence and
requirements, especially the provision of safe working areas and isolation from AC electrical power.
Leaking underground tanks can create serious environmental and health hazards. It is the contractor's
responsibility to comply with the instructions and warnings found in this manual.
Reference manual number 577013-578 for additional product safety information.
DANGER AREAS
WARNING
TLS System products will be operated near the highly combustible
environment of a fuel storage tank.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS AND SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, ENVIRONMENT,
RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
If the underground storage tank to be fitted with a TLS system either contains or at any time has contained
petroleum products then the tank inspection chamber must be considered a hazardous environment as defined in
IEC EN 60079-10 Classification of Hazardous Areas. Suitable working practices for this environment must be
observed.
INTRINSIC SAFETY
The design of Veeder-Root products limits the power in the wiring to the in-tank probes and keeps this wiring
physically separated from any other. It is the responsibility of the contractor to maintain the effectiveness of these
safety features by preparing the installation site in accordance with the instructions and warnings which follow.
Failure to do so could create danger to life and property.
Circuitry within the probe and console barrier forms an intrinsically safe, energy limited system. This system makes
the probes suitable for use in hazardous locations. Probe wiring is intrinsically safe only when connected to the
TLS-IB unit.
Substitution of specified components may impair intrinsic safety.
All probe wiring must be contained in dedicated ducts.
2-3
Site Prep - International Installations TLS-IB Location
NOTICE
WARNING
An explosion could occur if other wires share ducts with intrinsically safe
probe wiring. Ducting from probes must not contain any other wiring circuits.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN EXPLOSION,
DEATH, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY LOSS OR EQUIPMENT
DAMAGE.
TLS-IB Location
The TLS-IB should be located on an inside wall of the forecourt building Be sure the console will be protected
from vibration, extremes in temperature and humidity, rain and other conditions that could cause equipment
malfunction.
The equipment is designed to operate safely under the following range of conditions:
• Altitude up to 2000 m.
• Temperature range of 0 to 40°C.
• A maximum relative humidity of 95% RH (non-condensing) at temperatures up to 40°C.
• Main supply voltage fluctuations not exceeding +/- 10%
• Pollution Degree Category 2 Installation Category II
The TLS-IB unit must be installed within the interior of buildings.This unit is not suitable for
any external location.
Ensure that the TLS-IB is located where neither it nor its associated cabling will be damaged by doors, furniture,
barrows, etc. Consider the ease of routing wiring, ducting and probe cables to the unit.
Overall dimensions and weight of the TLS-IB are: height - 163 mm, width - 188 mm, depth - 50 mm, weight - 1.8
kg.
To allow for maintenance ensure that the console is in an accessible area, even when the console doors are open.
If the unit requires cleaning, do not use any liquid materials (e.g. cleaning solvents). It is recommended that the unit
be wiped with a clean dry cloth when necessary.
Ensure that all relevant subcontractors and other personnel are aware of the selected location.
The TLS-IB is installed by Veeder–Root authorised engineers.
TLS-IB power must come from a dedicated circuit via a fused, switched, neon indication spur within 1 metre of the
console position. The spur must be clearly marked to identify it as the means for disconnecting the console. Input
power must be a 24-hour clean supply. A typical installation is shown in Figure 2-2.
