Contractor Certification Requirements
Veeder–Root requires the following minimum training certifications for contractors who will install and
setup the equipment discussed in this manual:
Service Technician Certification (Previously known as Level 2/3): Contractors holding valid
Technician Certifications are approved to perform installation checkout, startup, programming and
operations training, system tests, troubleshooting and servicing for all Veeder–Root Series Tank
Monitoring Systems, including Line Leak Detection.
TLS–4xx Technician Certification: Contractors holding valid TLS–4xx Technician Certifications are
approved to perform installation checkout, startup, programming and operations training,
troubleshooting and servicing for all Veeder–Root TLS–4xx Series Tank Monitoring Systems, including
Line Leak Detection and associated accessories.
Warranty Registrations may only be submitted by selected Distributors.

Safety Symbols
The following safety symbols may be used throughout this manual to alert you to important safety
hazards and precautions.
EXPLOSIVE
Fuels and their vapors are
extremely explosive if ignited.
FLAMMABLE
Fuels and their vapors are extremely
flammable.
WARNING
Pay close attention to the stated
procedures and precautions to
avoid the noted hazards.
ELECTRICITY
High voltage exists in, and is sup-
plied to, the device. A potential
shock hazard exists. Turn Off power
to the device and associated
accessories when servicing the
unit.
RESPIRATORY IRRITANT
Epoxy sealant is irritating to eyes,
respiratory system, and skin. Use
only in well ventilated areas.
Avoid breathing fuel vapors.
WEAR EYE PROTECTION
Wear eye protection when working
with pressurized fuel lines or epoxy
sealant to avoid possible eye injury.
GLOVES
Wear gloves to protect hands
from irritation or injury when work-
ing with epoxy sealant.
RESTRICT PUBLIC ACCESS
Allowing unauthorized people or
vehicles in the work area is danger-
ous. A combination of barricade
types or other barriers appropriate
to the job shall be used to guide
traffic and secure the work area.
NOTICE
Important information and/or rec-
ommended practice.
READ ALL RELATED MANUALS
Knowledge of all related proce-
dures before you begin work is
important. Read and understand all
manuals thoroughly. If you do not
understand a procedure, ask some-
one who does.

TLS–RF Series 4 Wireless System Installation Literature and Drawings
It is important that installers have knowledge of all relevant procedures before installing a TLS–RF
Series 4 Wireless System. Read and understand thoroughly, this manual and all relevant material from
the part numbers listed in the Related Manuals and Related Drawings sections. If you do not understand
a procedure, contact Veeder–Root. Each TLS–4xx Console has its own setup and installation manuals.
Refer to the 577013–578 TLS Monitoring Systems: Contractors’ Site Preparation Guide for details
about the ATEX examination certificates that control the TLS–RF Series 4 Wireless System and the
corresponding Veeder–Root TLS Monitoring Systems site preparation requirements, including
conditions for safe use that specifically apply to the Transmitter and Battery Pack.
This manual assumes the TLS–450PLUS/TLS4 is installed following the instructions included with the
console.

in the Related Manuals and Related Drawings sections. This website link is also provided in the
577014–245 ATEX EU Foreign Language Manual Notice.
RF Transmitter Installation Considerations
Install Transmitters in the sumps first and verify the sump Transmitters and devices are recognized by
the ATG before installing Transmitters in the dispensers.
If possible, replacing the metal sump lids with non–metal sump lids should improve wireless
communication performance.
Especially within metal sumps, locate the Transmitter as close as possible to the top and center of the
containment space (e.g., within sump or dispenser) to maximize wireless communication performance.
The Transmitter antenna is properly assembled to the Transmitter in the factory to provide an
IP–67 seal. If it is required to remove the antenna from the Transmitter, then ensure that the
antenna is reinstalled properly by threading the antenna onto the connector until it bottoms
out and then hand–tightening 1/4 turn. Do not over tighten the antenna onto the connector.
Ensure that the antenna does not contact another object or surface in the containment space,
preferably providing at least 25.4mm (1") of clearance.
Orient the Transmitter antenna in a vertical position. If a vertical antenna position is not possible, such as
might be the case in a dispenser cabinet, put the antenna in a horizontal position.
For sump installations using 12.7mm [1/2”] conduit pipe cut to appropriate length and 12.7mm (½”)
clamps, screws, and nuts provided in both kits P/N 330020–528 and 330020–835, raise the
Transmitter as high in the sump as possible, preferably positioning the tip of the antenna within 25.4mm
[1”] of the sump lid. Ensure that the antenna does not contact the lid or any other surface within the
sump.
A Universal Sensor Installation kit (P/N 330020–012) may be required in dispenser installations for
attaching the Transmitter/Battery Pack support bracket to cabinet plumbing or structural members.
