Step 16:  Perform the TD80  Overfill Prevention System  Test  and Verification  

Each  TD80  system  installed  on  the  tanker  is  to  be  tested  by  the  following  procedure.  For 
two  compartment  tankers,  steps  1  through  7  must  be  repeated  for  each  TD80  and  Finch. 
The  RCM  combines  information  from  both  TD80s,  so  each  RCM  compartment  channel 
needs  to  be  tested.  Step  8,  testing  the  permissive  at  the  API sockets only requires one of 
the channels  to confirm  correct operation. 

These  steps  describe  tests  to  be  completed  after  mechanical  and  electrical  installation  of 
the  TD80  system.  These  tests  may  also  be  used to confirm correct system operation after 
repair.  Normal  responses  are  indicated  for  each  test.  Proceed  to  troubleshooting  if  the 
test results differ  from  the ones  shown. 

System  Test  and Verification Checklist: 

Checked 

Step 

 

1. Power  ON  Check. Confirm  Finch display and  RCM  startup.  

 

2. Check Finch  display for  communication  with the TD80.  

 

3. Volume  display 

 

4. Set the Fill alarm 

 

5. Clear  all alarms 

 

6. Simulated  level  and  alarm  response.  Volume  display, alarm 
response  and  RCM  indicators are   tested from  2LO to Spill and  back 
to 2LO 

 

7. Test the  optional  4-20mA  output. 

 

8. Test the  Optic and/or  Thermistor  sockets 

 

Table 3-2:  System Test and  Verification Check list 

1.  Turn  power  on  to the TD80  system. The  Display  should  turn  on and  go  through  its 

start-up  sequence  (approximately  10 seconds  long). 

a.  Finch Display  is tested, showing  numbers  0 thru  9 and  then  letters A thru  F 
b.  Finch Display  Fill/Fall alarm  is pulsed 

i.  Installed  light  will blink 

ii.  Installed  horn  will briefly  sound 

iii.  Installed  underfill  prevention  system will activate  then deactivate 

c.  Finch Display  Fail/Spill alarm  is pulsed 

i.  Installed  light  will blink 

ii.  Installed  horn  will briefly  sound 

iii.  Installed  Overfill  prevention  system will activate  then  deactivate 

d.  RCM  Indicators  are  as follows: 

i.  Power  Indicator  is ON and  solid  YELLOW  

ii.  Sensor  #1  and #2  are  OFF 

iii.  Permit is ON and  solid RED 

 

2.  Finch 

Display will show “----”  for up to several  seconds, then one of the following. 

Clear  any active  alarms  before  continuing  to Step 3: 

a. 

“2 LO” if the tank is empty or contains liquid and the depth  is less than 5.5” 

b.  Level  if the tank contains  liquid and  the  depth  is greater  than 

5.5” 

c. 

Error message “E xx”, where  xx is a number 

d. 

“SPill” 

e.  Ensure  RCM  Indicators  are  as follows:
