Overview
The TSP-UHS is a Standard sensor that is used to detect
the loss of a liquid in the normally solution-filled sensor
reservoir connected to the interstitial areas of double-wall
dispenser sumps. The sensor is supplied with electrical
connectors, 25 feet of cable, and a cord-grip fitting (see
diagrams). The TSP-UHS uses magnetic-float / reed-switch
technology (the sensor must be suspended vertically so
the float can freely follow the level of a liquid).
When the float drops more than 3/4 of an inch, the
magnetically sensitive reed switch will open. An open
circuit is recognized as an alarm-condition at the
intrinsically safe (I.S) leak detection circuits of the FFS
(Franklin Fueling Systems) ATG console.
Testing the TSP-UHS
This device can be tested by lifting the sensor from the
sensor reservoir. This will cause an alarm at the ATG
console. Test the sensor for proper operation on a yearly
basis, or more frequently per local code.
