Introduction
The purpose of this manual is to guide installers, operators and technicians through the operation of a T5 series console.
The T5 series consoles incorporate the monitoring and alarm capabilities of preceding automatic tank gauges with
advanced technologies to supply tank and level data more accurately and efficiently. This manual is also designed to
introduce technicians to the optional LCD Graphical User Interface, which is used as an input device to program system
configuration and maintain all applications from the front panel of the console. Overall safety issues, troubleshooting
information, start-up procedures, warranty, service and return policies, as defined in this manual, must be followed.
The TS-5 (TS-608) / 550 / 5000 Fuel Management System consists of an open architecture, modular console that can
run multiple Fuel Management Applications simultaneously. It typically contains an LCD touch screen user interface and a
built-in printer, but it can also be operated by a web-based remote interface. Magnetostrictive Liquid Level Probes inside
of the tanks provide the console with inventory and leak detection information. A variety of optional sensors can be used
to monitor containment spaces. T5 series consoles combine the power and flexibility of computer-based open architecture
with a high speed modular bus design.
Note: The TS-5 (TS-608) comes standard with an LCD touch screen display and does not accommodate for an internal
printer. An internal printer and touch screen display are optional on all other systems.
