REFE—ONle VFranklin Fueling Systems TS-VFM Installation Guide This install guide provides necessary installation instructions for the mounting of the INCON Vapor Flow Meter inside a dispenser or inside a dispenser sump. Information regarding the cabling and the connection to the Tank Sentinel Console is found in the Tank Sentinel Installation Guide(p/n 000- 2150). All documentation relating to operability,maintenance,and testing of the Vapor Flow Meter is found in the Vapor Recovery Monitor Operator's Guide(p/n 000-2058). Important: See the Vapor Recovery Install/Operators Manual or Tank Sentinel Installation Manual for Important Safety Messages.

The use of non hardening, "pipe-dope,"thread sealant is strictly prohibited and will void the warranty. 1. Perform a site inspection.Determine how the Vapor Flow Meter will be installed.The preferred installation method for this product is to install above the vapor shear valve. If there is not enough room between the vapor shear valve and the vapor pump,installation below the shear valve may be needed. 2. If the Vapor Recovery equipment is going to be installed on an existing service station,verify that there is a run of intrinsically safe conduit going back to the console.Vapor Flow Meter wiring can share the same space with other intrinsically safe cables,but cannot be run with non-intrinsically safe cables. 3. Make sure that all contractor-supplied piping materials are compatible with California fuels and meet all local codes.
