*Evaluations determined these sensors' 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.
** Manufacturer and evaluator claim that responses to Lubrizol 9888 and 9888C would be expected to be very similar to each other. Responses to Afton OTR 8332G. and OTR 8843G would be expected to be very similar to each other.

Comments:
Ken Wilcox Associates (KWA) has previously evaluated these sensors on one or more Franklin Fueling Systems ATG consoles. Results from the alarm functionality testing with the EVO600 and EVO6000 consoles have been combined with previously evaluated sensor threshold data performed by KWA.
Sensor 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. The FMP-ULS-PS is a position sensitive float switch that issues an alarm if not installed properly at the bottom of the intestinal or sump. Sensors are reusable.
