11 1. This manual contains the installation instructions for the TLS -350 UST Monitoring System designed and manufac- tured by the Veeder-Root Company, 125 Powder Forest Drive, P.O. Box 2003, Simsbury, CT 06070-2003. 2. When a vertical bar I appears adjacent to text or illustra- tions, information has been added or revised in this printing. B. DAMAGE CLAIMS. 1. Thoroughly examine for any damage all components and units as soon as received. QP1 NOTE: Insist that the carrier's agent verify the inspection and sign the description. 2. Immediately notify the delivering carrier of damage or loss. This notification may be given either in person or by telephone. Written confirmation must be mailed within 48 hours. Railroads and motor carriers are understand- ably reluctant to make adjustments for damaged mer- chandise unless inspected and reported promptly. 3. Risk of loss or damage to merchandise remains with the buyer. It is the buyer's responsibility to file a claim with the carrier involved. 4. Immediately advise your Veeder-Root representative, distributor, or Veeder-Root headquarters in Simsbury, CT so that we may assist you. C. RETURN SHIPPING. Before returning any TLS - 350 monitors, probes, sensors or other system components, you must first call Veeder-Root Environmental Products Customer Service at (800) 873-3313 for a Returned Goods Authorization. It will provide complete information on return shipping procedures. Do not return any products without first obtaining a Returned Goods Authorization. The TLS -350 UST Monitoring System features a modular design that allows each system to be configured with monitoring, input and output capabilities according to the needs of a particular site. � 1 1 General. Operating Temperature Range: 32°F to 113°F (0°C to 450C). Storage Temperature Range: 15°F to 113°F (-10°C to 450C). 2. Monitor Features. The TLS -350 monitor incorporates the following fea- tures (see Figure 1, "TLS -350 Front Panel Features"): • A two-line, 24 -character -per -line Liquid Crystal Display • A 24 -key front -panel keyboard with control and alpha- numeric functions for programming, operating and reporting. • Three front -panel lamps to provide a visual indication of power -on, warning and alarm conditions. • An internal audible warning and alarm indicator. Site Preparation anj"pstallation Instructions NO= TLS-3,WST Monitoring System • An optional integral report printer with built-in take- up spool for hard -copy documentation of inventory, leak detect and alarm information, plus printed re- ports of all setup information. 3. Continuous Statistical Leak Detection (CSLD) CSLD is an advanced tank testing technology that makes full use of the TLS -350's in -tank monitoring capabilities. The TLS -350 with CSLD continuously monitors fuel height and temperature information to detect idle times in the tank. During each idle time, data are collected and combined with information from other idle periods to form a highly accurate leak detection database. Sophis- ticated statistical analysis techniques in CSLD con- stantly evaluate all existing information in the database to discard invalid data and perform leak tests based on only high-quality information in the current database. A new leak test is performed every time new data from an idle period are added. Since the database is constantly being updated, leak test results are always current. Leak tests are performed using the best data from up to the previous 28 days, and tests results are continuously updated as new data are gathered. Test results ai"rovided automatically every 24 hours. In addition, up-to-the-minute leak test results are available at any time with the press of a button. CSLD's algorithm sorts through all available informa- tion and uses only the highest quality data to perform its leak tests. Invalid data is thrown out and only the best data is used for accurate leak test results and less chance of false alarms. Because leak test data are collected continuously and updated frequently, the response time to detect leaks is shorter than that of scheduled static leak tests. Third -party testing confirmed that CSLD meets Fed- eral, state and local compliance requirements for monthly monitoring. Test results showed a 99% probability of detection and less than a 0.1% chance of false alarm. That far exceeds the U.S. E.P.A. performance standards of 95% probability of detection and 5% probability offalse alarm. 4. Monitoring Functions. Monitoring functions such as inventory control, in -tank leak detection, interstitial leak sensing and vapor sens- ing are provided by modules that snap into intrinsically safe expansion slots (see Figure 2, "TLS -350 Interface Module Area"). Eight slots are available in the Intrinsi- cally Safe Area of a single monitor and any combination of modules may be installed. The modules are: • ProbefMermistor Interface Module. One module accepts inputs from up to four in -tank digital sensing probes and up to four thermistors. Maximum two Modules per system. • Interstitial Sensor Interface Module. One module accepts inputs from up to eight interstitial and piping sump and hydrostatic liquid sensors. Maximum eight Modules per system. • Vapor Sensor Interface Module. One module ac- cepts inputs from up to five monitoring well vapor sensors. Maximum eight Modules per system.
