Tank Gauge and Leak Detection System
The Model TG-EL-D3 Tank Gauge and Leak Detection System is a remote reading, microprocessor-based tank gauge complete with an integral audible and visual alarm system for leak detection, tank overfill and low liquid level alarm. Designed for use with single wall, double wall, vaulted fuel oil storage tanks, and applications to all grades of fuel oil, including No. 6.
Application
The Preferred Model TG-EL-D3 tank gauge is designed to monitor one tank only. Preferred also offers the Fuel Sentry TG-EL-D4A tank gauge for two tank applications, and the TG-EL-D5 tank gauge for custom multi-tank applications. The Model TG-EL-D3 Tank Gauge and Leak Detection System is a remote reading, microprocessor-based tank gauge complete with an integral audible and visual alarm system for leak detection, tank overfill and low liquid level alarm. Designed for use with single wall, double wall and vaulted fuel oil storage tanks and for application to all grades of fuel oil, including No. 6. The TG-EL-D3 System is Factory Mutual Approved and complies with EPA regulations for leak detection and overfill alarm (Federal Register 9/23/88). The System consists of an Indicating Instrument, Level Sensor and Leak Sensors for up to three leak containment areas.

Specification
Provide and install for each main storage tank, a remote, microprocessor-based tank gauging, leak monitoring and overfill alarm system. The complete system including a microprocessor-based central processing and indicating instrument, liquid level sensor, leak detectors and overfill alarm station shall be supplied by one Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). This is to assure the highest standards of product quality and system integration capabilities for the customer. The entire system and all components shall be intrinsically safe as approved by Factory Mutual for Class 1, Div. 1, Group C & D hazardous locations. The system shall be a Preferred Utilities Mfg Corp., Danbury, CT, Model TG-EL-D3-ARF.The instrument shall have a die-cast aluminum (0.2” thick min.) housing containing all calibration adjustments. The system shall provide a 4-20 mADC output proportional to tank content in gallons and isolated alarm relay contacts for leak detection, automatically silenced overfill alarm and common alarm (leak, overfill, and low level). The control panel shall also have the following features: LED display shall have the capability to display (without scrolling) up to 99,990 gallons of inventory. It shall display the tank content continuously. Additionally it shall display all alarms in English language. Dedicated pushbutton for instantaneous display of the height of liquid in tank in inches. Common audible alarm with associated alarm silence pushbutton. Data recall pushbutton shall provide instantaneous display of tank content at the time of leak alarm condition. Overfill alarm circuit test pushbutton to provide instantaneous proving of audible and visual alarm circuitry associated with instrument overfill alarm contact. The central processing and indicating unit shall be Preferred Utilities Mfg Corp., Danbury, CT, Model TG-EL-D3-ARF.
