Installing or working on this equipment means working in an environment in which these highly flammable 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: This symbol identifies 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. This symbol identifies an electrical danger. An electrical danger sign will appear in the text of this document when a potentially hazardous situation involving large amounts of electricity may arise if the instructions that follow are not adhered to closely. A potentially hazardous situation may involve the possibility of electrocution, severe bodily harm, or even death. 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 fire 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 30, 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. When the Fuel Management System system is used to monitor tanks containing gasoline or other flammable substances, you may create an explosion hazard if you do not follow the requirements in this manual carefully. 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. Product Overview and Theory of Operation The TS-RA1, and TS-RA2 are remote audible and visual alarm units that are used with Fuel Management System consoles. The TS- RA1, TS-RA2, and the TS-RK Tank Overfill Alarm and Alarm Acknowledge units are mounted near the tank filling site. If the tank product level reaches the FMS overfill alarm setpoint, then the Tank Overfill Alarm will become active. An active Tank Overfill Alarm alerts the tank filling attendant to immediately stop the filling operation before a spill occurs. The TS-RK is an optional remote alarm acknowledge unit. This unit gives the tank filling attendant the means to silence a Tank Overfill Alarm at the filling site. The TS-RK is required when a TS-RA1 or TS-RA2 is connected to a T5 series Fuel Management System console or a Colibri Automatic Tank Monitor. When in an alarm condition, depressing the acknowledge button on the TS-RK will silence the Tank Overfill Alarm at the tank filling site. Alarm Specifications The TS-RA1 is a standard intensity, remote alarm device that has a useful signal range up to 50 feet. Ratings Input Power 115 VAC (96 to 132vac), 60Hz @ 0.125 amps Maximum Operating Temperature Range –31 to 150 °F Humidity Range Up to 95% humidity Signal outputs Visual (low intensity incandescent lamp) & audio tone (85 dB @ 10 feet) The TS-RA2 is alarm device that has a strobe-light, and eight user-selectable output tones with two user-selectable sound intensities. In the high-intensity mode, the TS­‑RA2 has a useful signal range up to 200 feet. Ratings Input Power 115 VAC (96 to 132vac), 60Hz @ 0.125 amps Maximum Operating Temperature Range –31 to 150 °F Humidity Range Up to 95% humidity Signal outputs Visual strobe (15 Candela), and audio tone (99 dB to 75 dB @ 10 feet). When properly installed, wired, and programmed, this alarm system will help prevent dangerous fuel spills, environmental contamination, and cleanup costs. Danger Warning Warning Warning Warning Warning Caution 2 Installation Overview The mounting location of TS-RA1, TS-RA2, TS-RK units should be based on: cable run length, ease of conduit routing, alarm light visibility, alarm horn audible range limitations, and the distance away from hazardous areas. In addition, the following limitations and requirements must be met. TANK OVERFILL ALARM LOW Limit (Reorder) setpoint HIGH Limit (Tank full) setpoint (high)WATER Limit setpoint HI HI Limit (Tank Overfill) setpoint LO LO Limit setpoint HAZARDOUS AREA TS-RK Alarm Acknowledge Unit NON-HAZARDOUS AREA TS-RA1, or TS-RA2 Tank Overfill Alarm (TS-RA2 shown) FMS Console NON-HAZARDOUS AREA Tank Filling Site HAZARDOUS AREA MODEL TS-RK SACO, MAINE 04072 INTELLIGENT CONTROLS INC. ACKNOWLEDGE 74 INDUSTRIAL PARK ROAD SACO, MAINE 04072 INTELLIGENT CONTROLS 74 INDUSTRIAL PARK RD. TANK OVERFILL ALARM MODEL TS-RA2 Figure 1: TS-RA and TS-RK Installation Overview • The location of the Tank Overfill Alarm and Alarm Acknowledge unit enclosures must be less than 1000 feet away from the 120 VAC electrical power (source) panel. • The TS-RA1, or TS-RA2 Tank Overfill Alarm unit should be mounted near the fuel tank filling area. • The alarm light must be visible and the alarm horn must be audible at the fuel tank filling area. • These units should be mounted in a protected location that minimizes exposure to direct sunlight, snow and rain. • The TS-RK Tank Overfill Alarm Acknowledge unit should be accessible to the tank filling attendant. Access to the TS-RK from the filling area must be clear with no obstructions. DO NOT install the Tank Overfill Alarm, or Alarm Acknowledge units in a volatile, combustible, or explosive atmosphere. Failure to do so may create an explosion hazard. Run wiring from the Tank Sentinel console to the TS-RA1 / TS-RA2 Tank Overfill Alarm, and TS-RK Alarm Acknowledge units in separate conduit apart from any other wiring. All conduits must enter through supplied non-intrinsically safe enclosure knockouts only. Failure to do so may create an explosion hazard.
