7 In-Tank Setup Sudden Loss Limit

Sudden Loss Limit

If necessary, press STEP until you see the message:

T1: (Product Label)


SUDDEN LOSS LIMIT: 000000

Sudden Loss Limit immediately warns of a sudden loss of fuel during a leak test. It is not based on temperature-
compensated volume and is intended to identify losses larger than the Leak Alarm Limit. Typically, you should set
this limit at 25 gallons or 100 litres, or higher.
To enter the Sudden Loss Limit for the selected tank, press CHANGE. Enter the limit in gallons or litres,
depending on the units specified in System Setup. Press ENTER to confirm your entry. The system displays:

SUDDEN LOSS LIMIT: XXXXXX

Tank Tilt

The following Tank Tilt procedure is for U.S. installations. For international installations, see Appendix A.
Consoles w/ BIR only--Entering a Tank Tilt value is not recommended if the system is performing automatic
Business Inventory Reconciliation and AccuChart.
If the probe is installed in the center of the tank, the value is 000.00 U.S.; 0000.0 Metric.

CALCULATING TANK TILT (H2)


Use the worksheet below to record measurements and perform Tank Tilt calculations for each of the tanks.
1. Stick the tank at the fill riser opening at least three times. Record the average reading in column A of the chart.
2. Before beginning this step, make sure the Tank Tilt in the display above = 0. Record the probe’s Fuel Height (In-Tank
Inventory Function) reading in column B of the chart.
3. Subtract the value entered in column B from the value entered in column A. Record the result in column C.
4. Measure the distance in inches (or millimeters if you use Metric Units) between the probe and fill risers. Record the
measurement in column D.
5. Divide the value in column C by column D to determine the pitch. Record the results in column E.
6. Measure the distance in inches or millimetres from the probe riser to the center of the tank. Record the distance in column
F.
7. Multiply column E by column F to determine Tank Tilt (E X F = Tank Tilt Value). Record the value in column G.
