Health And Safety

SAFETY SYMBOLS

The following safety symbols are used throughout this manual to alert you to important safety hazards and 
precautions.

GENERAL

Ensure that all local council, E.C. laws and regulations are complied with. Also ensure that all recognised safety 
codes are followed.

Every person working with Veeder–Root equipment is expected to take every safety precaution possible in the 
installation of TLS Systems.

Contractors must ensure that supervisory personnel on the installation site are aware of their presence and 
requirements, especially the provision of safe working areas and isolation from AC electrical power.

Leaking underground tanks can create serious environmental and health hazards. It is the contractor's 
responsibility to comply with the instructions and warnings found in this manual.

Substitution of specified components may impair intrinsic safety.

EQUIPMENT PROTECTION 

TLS monitoring equipment, including the Magnetostrictive Probe, is designed and certified to comply with the 
Directive 94/9/EC (ATEX) and the IECEx scheme. The installer must consider any local regulations, which may 
differ or be more stringent, prior to installing any equipment. The suitability/safety of any installation is ultimately 
determined by the local authority having jurisdiction.

Explosive

Fuels and their vapors are extremely 
explosive if ignited.

Read All Related Manuals

Knowledge of all related procedures before you 
begin work is important. Read and understand 
all manuals thoroughly. If you do not understand 
a procedure, ask someone who does

WARNING

Heed the adjacent instructions to avoid 
equipment damage or personal injury.

INJURY

Careless or improper handling of epoxy sealant 
materials can result in bodily injury.

GLOVES

Wear gloves to protect hands from irrita-
tion or injury.

WEAR EYE PROTECTION

Epoxy sealant in contact with eyes can cause 
serious injury. Always wear eye protection when 
sealing wire splices.

WARNING

Explosion could occur if other wires share ducts with intrinsically safe probe or 
sensor wiring. Ducting for probes and sensors must not contain any other wiring 
circuits except where permitted by local wiring codes and regulations.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS AND SAFETY 
PRECAUTIONS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, ENVIRONMENT, 
RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
