ELECTRICAL DANGER Electronic line leak detectors start submersible pumps
automatically to run leak-tests at full line pressure. Automatic pump starts occur between
periods of product dispensing when there is no product being dispensed. Before performing
any installation or service (such as replacing fuel-filters) – tag and lock-out all electrical power
sources to the submersible pump(s), pump controllers, and dispensers and relieve fuel-line pressure.
Failure to turn off power and relieve fuel-line pressure before work is started can result in:
pressurized fuel spills (an environmental hazard associated with costly clean-ups), and fire or
explosion hazard that may result in injury or death.
Multiple INCON Danger stickers are supplied with electronic line
leak detectors. Apply these stickers on the pump relay box
cover, in locations near dispenser fuel-line filters, plugs,
emergency safety-shut-off valves, on or near the Leak Sensing
Unit Transducer (at the submersible pump housing), and other
serviceable components of a fuel line (where a spill would
occur if the line became pressurized). The selected surfaces
must be clean, dry, and in plain sight so that the label can be
read, and followed.
WARNING The fuel line from the submersible pump to the dispenser, may be under
pressure. Turn off all pump power and relieve pipeline pressure (reference and follow the
pump manufacturer’s directions about how to do this). If the line leak detector/plug (or any
other part of the submersible pump and fuel line) is removed without first relieving pressure,
then a product leak will occur. This could cause an environmental, fire, or explosion hazard,
and may result in injury or death.
WARNING Avoid personnel injury or property damage: keep moving vehicles and
unauthorized personnel out of the hazardous work area. Use Safety Cones, Barricades,
Warning Signs, and Safety Tape, and block access with Barricades / service trucks to the
work area to avoid injury or property damage.
WARNING Be careful not to cause sparks when working on fuel dispensing equipment
(volatile fuel may be within the pump’s leak detector port). Allow no source of combustion
near the work area. Failure to follow these directions may cause an explosion hazard, which
could result in property damage and death.
WARNING During the Calibration/learn process, ALWAYS secure the line leak generator in
the appropriate container. When the submersible pump is turned on, a fine stream will be
sprayed out the orifice of the line leak generator. This stream can cause movement of the line
leak generator and possibly come out of the container. This product stream can cause
physical injury and environmental hazards.
FIRE, EXPLOSION &
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Electronic line leak detector
installed—the pump may start at any
time and pressurize the fuel lines.
• BEFORE performing any
installation or service — turn off/
lock out electrical power sources
to the submersible pump(s), and
relieve fuel-line pressure.
