'6-ne Leak DetectiTh_ Probes Inmost areas of the country, when the Tidel line leak detection probes are used as a monthly monitoring method for pressurized underground piping, a .2 gallon per hour test must be passed once a month (check you local regulations -for requirements in your area.) The EMS is continuously trying to conduct and pass this required .2 gallon per hour test on the product lines during times when there is no dispensing occurring. But due to the duration of the .2 gallon per hour test (30 minutes to 5 hours) the EMS may not be able to conduct this test automatically as a result of a station's high traffic and gasoline volumes being dispensed. If this should occur, the EMS console will generated a "LINE PRESSURE PROBE LEAK TEST REMINDER -REPORT" (see Figure 9) a number of days prior to the end of the month (the number of days is set by the Tidel Authorized Service Dealer.) In addition the red alarm LED will be illuminated, and on line four of the display a "PROBE # REM" message will be displayed. In the event that you receive such an alarm, you must provide adequate "Quiet Time" for the EMS console to conclude and pass a .2 gallon per hour test before the end of the month. This may be accomplished by simply not (dispensing) that grade of product for I to 5 hours so that the EMS may conduct a .2 gph test. NOTE: Power must remain "ON" to the submersible pump as the submersible pump may be activated for brief periods of time during the test by the EMS console.
