In-Service Installation Procedures
Note Before installing your 2500 ATG, read and review all safety precautions on page ii
of the preface to this document. Continuing with installation according to the instructions
in this manual presumes you have reviewed these safety precautions.
Note Refer to section , Identifying Your Installation Type, on page 11 before proceeding.
Warning Make certain that the tank has been leak and pressure tested as appropriate
for the liquid stored. Observe appropriate safety precautions in flammable or hazardous
liquid storage areas.
Warning Do not enter a tank that contains hydrocarbons, vapors, or toxic materials, until
a gas-free environment is certified. Carry breathing equipment when entering a tank
where oxygen may be displaced with carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or other gases or toxic
fumes may be present.
Warning The mechanical connections between the guide cables, the float, the tape, and
the gauge head provide a resistance to ground that is adequate for the safe electrical drain
of electrostatic charges that may accumulate in the tank and the product. Worker activity
and worker clothing may accumulate electrostatic charges on the body of a worker. Care
should be used in flammable environments to avoid the hazard. Observe American
Petroleum Institute (API) Recommended Practice 2003 or other appropriate industry or
Military Standard.
