Product Overview and Theory of Operation
The TS-RA1, and TS-RA2 are remote audible and visual alarm units that are used with Fuel Management System
consoles.
The TS-RA1, TS-RA2, and the TS-RK
Tank Overfill Alarm and Alarm Acknowledge units are mounted near the tank
filling site. If the tank product level reaches the FMS overfill alarm setpoint, then the Tank Overfill Alarm will become
active. An active Tank Overfill Alarm alerts the tank filling attendant to immediately stop the filling operation before a spill
occurs. The TS-RK is an optional remote alarm acknowledge unit. This unit gives the tank filling attendant the means to
silence a Tank Overfill Alarm at the filling site. The TS-RK is required when a TS-RA1 or TS-RA2 is connected to a T5
series Fuel Management System console or a Colibri Automatic Tank Monitor.
When in an alarm condition, depressing the acknowledge button on the TS-RK will silence the Tank Overfill Alarm at the
tank filling site.
