Important Safety Messages

INCON equipment is designed to be installed in association with volatile hydrocarbon liquids such as gasoline and diesel 

fuel. Installing or working on this equipment means working in an environment in which these highly flammable liquids may 

be present. Working in such a hazardous environment presents a risk of severe injury or death if these instructions and 

standard industry practices are not followed. Read and follow all instructions thoroughly before installing or working on this, 

or any other related equipment.
As you read this guide, please be aware of the following symbols and their meanings.

This symbol identifies a warning. A warning sign will appear in the text of this document when a potentially 

hazardous situation may arise if the instructions that follow are not adhered to closely. A potentially hazardous 

situation may involve the possibility of severe bodily harm or even death.
This is a caution symbol. A caution sign will appear in the text of this document when a potentially hazardous 

environmental  situation  may  arise  if  the  instructions  that  follow  are  not  adhered  to  closely. A  potentially 

hazardous environmental situation may involve the leakage of fuel from equipment that could severely harm 

the environment.

Follow all applicable codes governing the installation and servicing of this product and the entire

system. Always lock out and tag electrical circuit breakers while installing or servicing this equipment

and related equipment. A potentially lethal electrical shock hazard and the possibility of an explosion

or fire from a spark can result if the electrical circuit breakers are accidentally turned on during

installation or servicing. Please refer to the Installation and Owner’s Manual for this equipment and

the appropriate documentation for any other related equipment, for complete installation and safety

information.
Follow all federal, state, and local laws governing the installation of this product and its associated

systems. When no other regulations apply, follow NFPA codes 30, 30A, and 70 from the National Fire

Protection Association. Failure to follow these codes could result in severe injury, death, serious

property damage, and / or environmental contamination.
Always secure the work area from moving vehicles. The equipment in this manual is usually mounted

underground, so reduced visibility puts service personnel working on this equipment in danger from

moving vehicles entering the work area. To help eliminate these unsafe conditions, secure the area

by using a service truck to block access to the work environment, or by using any other reasonable

means available to ensure the safety of service personnel.
TS-DIM units must be installed in non-hazardous areas. The main box must be protected from

severe vibration, extreme temperatures and excessive humidity.
All equipment connected to the TS-DIM must be UL approved. Also, use standard RS232 and RS485

connections.
The TS-DIM is intended to be used with other devices such as tank monitors, which determine

whether leaks exist at a site. The TS-DIM device cannot determine if product leaks are present.
