Specificity Results (in addition to above):
Sensors will respond to any hydrocarbon liquid after its threshold is exceeded.

Comments:
Sensors are reusable. Sensor is easily removed, cleaned, and reinstalled.
The consoles in the 8601 Series are identical other than their name for marketing purposes. Each of the consoles within the series will perform identically.
The 8601 Series consists of the following derivatives: TLS4, TLS4B, TLS4c, TLS4i, and TLS-S1 consoles.
The 857060-XXX and the 857080-XXX Mag Sump Sensors are based on the use of a short magnetostrictive probe that is equipped with two floats. The lower float will only float on water. The upper float will float on fuel as well as water. The system is capable of detecting either water only, fuel only, or fuel floating on water. If water rises above the threshold of the lower float on the sensor in the containment sump, a water alarm condition is generated indicating there is the presence of water in the containment sump. If fuel rises above the threshold of the upper float on the sensor in the containment sump, an alarm condition is generated indicating there is the presence of fuel in the containment sump. If both water and fuel rise above the threshold of the lower and upper float, alarms will be generated indicating the presence of both fuel and water.
Sensors are available in 12” and 24” lengths. Regardless of the length of the sensor, these sensors all perform identically for the sensor threshold. Currently, the following models are included: 857060-101, 102, 111, 112, 121, 122, 211, 212, 221, and 222.
For both sensors, console alarm is indicated by an audible alarm, a displayed message and a printed message (if the console is equipped with a printer.) The alarm is also recorded as part of Alarm History Report.
