Turbine Pump Interface (TPI) Applications

In systems where TPI is used, the relays are not needed for line leak or STP operation. Communication with the FFS 

smart controllers is done exclusively by the RS-485 connection. Refer to the Programming Manual for full TPI instructions.
Example: TPI Setup

Height 5.00 in

* Number of inputs 4

Input 1

Type 4-20 mA Input Module

Channel Unleaded Transducer

Input 2

Type AC Input Module

Channel Dispenser 1 Unleaded Hook Signal

Input 3

Type AC Input Module

Channel Dispenser 2 Unleaded Hook Signal

Input 4

Type AC Input Module

Channel Dispenser 3 Unleaded Hook Signal

* Calculate the total number of inputs that need to turn on the STP:

  1 transducer

+  Number of AC inputs for the specific line

+ Any other inputs to operate the STP

=   Total number of inputs 

Note:  Height is the estimated distance from PMA bottom to tank bottom. This distance is used for empty tank and high 

water conditions.
