576013-635 Veeder-Root RS-232 Serial Interface Manual Contractor Certification Requirements Veeder-Root requires the following minimum training certifications for contractors who will install and setup the equipment discussed in this manual: Installer Certification (Level 1): Contractors holding valid Installer Certification are approved to perform wiring and conduit routing;...
Introduction Safety Symbols Safety Symbols The following safety symbols may be used throughout this manual to alert you to important safety hazards and precautions. EXPLOSIVE FLAMMABLE Fuels and their vapors are extremely explosive if Fuels and their vapors are extremely flammable. ignited.
This system makes TLS-IB probes safe for use in a Class I, Group D hazardous location. TLS-IB probe wiring is intrinsically safe only when connected to Veeder-Root's TLS-IB Consoles. Reference Form Number 8466 TLS-IB Console and Form Numbers 8462, 8463, 8473, and 8493 (Probes).
Veeder–Root maintains a continuous process of product development and therefore product specifications may not be as described in this manual. Please contact the Veeder-Root office nearest you, or visit our website at www.veeder.com for information on new or updated products. Changes affecting products or procedures described in this manual will be reported in subsequent revisions.
24” (610mm) Minimum Probe length Install drop tube discharge oriented away from probe Figure 2-1. Determining The Minimum Mag Probe Length For further information on the performance, specification and selection of in-tank probes, please contact your local Veeder-Root representative.
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.
Site Prep - International Installations TLS-IB Location 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.
Site Prep - International Installations TLS-IB Location Alternative knockouts for cable entries IFSF cable (Optional) 1000 mm (Maximum) 1500 mm (Maximum) One 5 ampere fused, switched, neon indication spur (for 240 Vac), or a Conduit for probe dedicated circuit breaker field cables rated for 15 amperes, 120 Vac or 240 Vac.
Site Prep - International Installations Mounting the TLS-IB Mounting the TLS-IB Install the TLS-IB fastening devices to the mounting surface using the hole pattern 170 x 145mm (6.7 x 5.7 inches) shown in Figure 2-3. Mounting screws up to 4.7mm (3/16-inch) diameter may be used. Mount the TLS-IB to the mounting surface using the four mounting flanges on the back of the unit.
Site Prep - International Installations Cable Specifications Cable Specifications The cable type tables listed below form part of the individual system ATEX approval. WARNING Substitution of cable may impair intrinsic safety and may invalidate system approval. All specifications are in free air at +30°C: Table 2-1.
• The equipment must NOT be installed over or in a hazardous location. The RS-232 Interface can be used for direct local attachment of terminals if the cable run is no more than 15 metres. Veeder-Root do not guarantee proper equipment operation if RS-232 cable runs exceed 15 metres. NOTICE RS-232 cable runs longer than 15 metres could result in data errors.
1000 feet. Wire runs must be less than 1000 feet to meet intrinsic safety requirements. Splices Veeder-Root recommends that no splices be made in the wire run between a probe junction box and the console. Each splice degrades signal strength and could result in poor system performance.
The interior volume of each junction box must be a minimum of 16 cubic inches. Veeder-Root recommends the following junction boxes or equivalent: • Appleton Electric Co. - JBDX junction box, JBK-B cover, and JB-GK-V gasket.
Site Prep - U.S and Canadian Installations Mounting the TLS-IB If the intrinsically safe wires enter the building in a wiring trough, only intrinsically safe NOTICE wires (from TLS-IB probes) can be in the trough. Keep all low power (intrinsically safe) wiring physically isolated from high power wires in all wiring troughs per the NEC.
