*The
"high" and "low" refer to high and low level alarm points of
hydrostatic sensors.
**
See glossary.
***This evaluation
determined the sensor's responses to the liquids shown above. Biodiesel
blends B6-B20 meeting ASTM D7467 and biodiesel B100 meeting ASTM D6751 would
also produce an alarm if the sensor threshold is exceeded. Responses to
these fuels were not determined, but would be expected to be very similar to the
diesel responses.
Comments:
TSP-HIS BriteSensor is intended
to monitor level of either ethylene glycol or calcium chloride solutions in
interstitial or annular space of a double-walled tank.
Activates if any significant gain or loss of solution occurs.
Comparison of Tank Sentinel TS-1001/TS-2001 and TS-5xxx series consoles with
Tank Sentinel TS-1000(including EFI)/TS-2000 series consoles showed comparable
results when evaluated with representative sensors.
TSP-UHS is the same as the TSP-ULS sensor except that the float
has been inverted so that it may be used to monitor the brine reservoir of
containment sumps. An alarm condition will occur when the fluid level
drops below the end of the sensor.
Sensors
are reusable.
