INSTALLATION GUIDE

Safety Instructions

CAUTION

Read the installation instructions carefully. The Tank Sentinel

system is designed to be safe when correctly installed. It is possible to create
explosion hazards, health hazards, risk of death, and environmental hazards
through incorrect installation.

CAUTION

You must comply with state and local electrical codes as well as

the your National Electrical Code (U.S.A. – NFPA 70) and Automotive and Marine
Service Station Code (U.S.A. – NFPA 30A), or Canadian Electric Code (as
applicable), when installing the Tank Sentinel system.

WARNING

When the Tank Sentinel 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 of this manual carefully.

ELECTRICAL DANGER

All wiring must enter the Tank Sentinel enclosure

through the designated knockouts. An explosion hazard may result if other
openings are used.

ELECTRICAL DANGER

You must run wiring from probes or sensors to the

Tank Sentinel console in conduits which are separate from all other wiring. Failure
to do so, will create an explosion hazard.

WARNING

Do not install the Tank Sentinel console in a flammable or

explosive hazardous location. An explosion could result.

ELECTRICAL DANGER

Make sure that AC line power to the console is

turned off during installation or maintenance. Lethal voltages are present inside the
console which could injure or kill you.

WARNING

Substitution of components could impair intrinsic safety. The Tank

Sentinel system is intrinsically safe for probes or sensors installed in – Class I,
Division 1, Group D – hazardous locations. Substitution of components could make
the energy limiting circuitry in the system ineffective. An explosion hazard could
result. Repairs to the Tank Sentinel system should be performed only by a
qualified, factory-trained technician.
