In “Leveling Mode”, the ATG keeps the levels on multiple tanks the same and in the “Priority Mode”, a specified tank will draw down to its reserve percentage before other tanks are called upon.

The ATG also performs tank level management by generating alarms to warn the operator of High and High High product limits, Low and Low Low product limits, water levels limits and even an obstruction on the pump motor. The ATG can shut down pumps, turn on pumps and change priority based on the active alarm at the ATG. For example, if the water level in the tank is within two inches of the user defined pump height the ATG will indicate the “Pump in Water” alarm and shut down the pump. The ATG will prevent the pump from operating until the water level is reduced.

For Overfill Management the ATG will generate an alarm to warn the operator when the product level in the tank exceeds the High or High High limits. If these conditions occur, the ATG will change the tank priority in the group and make it the primary tank so it will be the first tank to draw down product until the product level drops below the High level limit.

TS-LS300 report, Leak Test Initiating Capabilities

The TS-TPI allows the TS-LS300 AutoLearn Line leak detection to communicate product pipeline status. The ATG can respond to TS-LS300 alarms and print reports of pipeline status. Reports can be scheduled by the end user. The user can schedule precision line tests at any time in the ATG. Then the ATG, communicating throught the TS-TPI, will initiate the line test. These tests are in addition to the tests the TS- LS300 will do automatically.

TS-TPI Setup Programing Operations

The ATG Setup Programming menus allow for the TS-TPI feature to be enabled. An Auto-configuration (AUTO CFG) is then performed, which sets up the TS-TPI system for the first time, adding menus to the setup display. The ATG will detect the number of pump controllers that are connected and will configure the ATG to monitor them.

The AUTO CFG updates the system configuration with the number of pump control- lers connected, what type of controller, how the controllers are grouped and how the associated pumps are to be managed.

The user Configuration menus control the pump name, tank association, pump height, pump mode and reserve setting.

Data Display and Reports

On the ATG a pump controller Display menu is available from the console to allow viewing of live and updated information about the pump controller. The ATG will also monitor the pump controllers for information such as: status, faults, volts, amps, watts, frequency, flow, pressure, temperature, dip switch settings, and software version.

The Pump Controller Status Report provides the same information found in the Display menu. A separate TPI setup Report shows the various Group, Pump and Tank associations.

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.
