TROUBLESHOOTING

This section is to aid in troubleshooting the TS-TPI and the integrated system that it is connected to. Two models of the TS-TPI are available, the factory installed option in the TS-LS300 AutoLearn and the TS-TPI stand alone unit. These troubleshooting steps will apply to both models unless otherwise indicated in the section.

The TS-TPI has a number of LEDs as indicator lights to help communicate the status of the TS-TPI and the equipment it is connected to.

The green LED is the power indicator, when it is on there is power to the TS-TPI.

The red LED is the TPC fault indicator, when it is on the TS-TPI received a signal indicating that one or more of the TPCs connected to it are in alarm.

The yellow LEDs are Port communication indicators, one yellow LED per port, under normal operation and conditions each yellow LED will be blinking. If any port has a steady on or steady off LED that indicates a problem with that port.

NOTE: The yellow communication LED closest to the HOST port typically blinks so rapidly that it appears solid on. If nothing is connected to a PORT the yellow LED for that port still blinks.

When the TS-TPI is used as a stand alone unit connected to TPCs only the TS-TPI functions as a remote pump controller status. The red LED when off indicates the controllers are not in alarm. If the red LED is on a controller is in an alarm condition. The TS-TPI can reset the TPC that is in alarm by pressing the Fault reset button. This will send a reset command to the controller that has the alarm only. If the Fault reset button is pushed and no alarms exist at the TPCs there is no reset command sent.

When the TS-TPI is used in conjunction with an ATG more information for troubleshooting can be viewed at the ATG. Status codes can be shown for each pump connected to the system. To view Status and Fault codes, access the display menu on the Tank Sentinel console:

1)Press the MENU key. Display shows SELECT MENU OPTION.

2)Press the DOWN key until DISPLAY appears.

3)Press the (M1 - M4) key below DISPLAY. Display shows PUMPS

4)Press the (M1 - M4) key below PUMPS. Display shows pump names.

5)Press the (M1 - M4) key below pump name. Display shows TPI codes.

INCON Tank Sentinel consoles display Status and Fault codes from TS-TPI devices. These codes describe current operating conditions of pumps and pump controllers. Codes are displayed as Hexa- decimal (HEX) computer code digits. A listing of common code names and meanings are in this section. Use this information to troubleshoot fault conditions.

TS-TPI specifications

The Franklin TS-TPI (Total Pipeline Inspection) is a cutting-edge tool designed to revolutionize pipeline inspections across various industries, including oil and gas, water, and wastewater management. This advanced technology enables operators to assess the integrity of pipeline systems efficiently and accurately, ensuring safety and compliance with regulatory standards.

One of the main features of the Franklin TS-TPI is its ability to perform comprehensive inspections using a variety of sensors and imaging technologies. It incorporates high-definition cameras that provide detailed visual representations of the pipeline's interior, allowing for real-time monitoring and evaluation. Additionally, it leverages ultrasonic and electromagnetic sensors to detect anomalies such as corrosion, leaks, and structural defects—critical factors that could lead to catastrophic failures if left unaddressed.

The Franklin TS-TPI employs innovative robotics and autonomous capabilities, enabling it to navigate complex pipeline systems with ease. Its modular design allows for customization based on the specific needs of a pipeline, with attachments that can be added or removed as required. This flexibility not only enhances its functionality but also extends the lifespan of the equipment by allowing operators to upgrade sensors and technology as new advancements emerge.

Another notable characteristic of the Franklin TS-TPI is its data management capabilities. The system collects vast amounts of inspection data, which can be analyzed using advanced software solutions. This technology provides operators with insights into the condition of their pipelines, helping them make informed decisions regarding maintenance and repairs. Predictive analytics can also be applied to assess the likelihood of future failures, allowing for proactive actions to prevent costly disruptions.

The Franklin TS-TPI's user-friendly interface and powerful reporting tools enhance its usability, making it accessible to a wide range of professionals. With easy integration into existing pipeline management systems, it can streamline operations, improve response times to potential issues, and help operators meet compliance and safety standards more effectively.

Overall, the Franklin TS-TPI represents a significant leap forward in pipeline inspection technology. Its combination of advanced imaging, sensor technology, robotics, and data analytics creates a robust solution that addresses the challenges faced by industries reliant on pipeline infrastructure. By ensuring the integrity and operational efficiency of pipelines, the Franklin TS-TPI not only protects valuable resources but also promotes environmental sustainability and public safety.
