Wired-Less(TM) Debuts with New TS-DTU Data Transfer Unit
Franklin Fueling Systems is pleased to announce the addition of the TS-DTU Data Transfer Unit to our complete line of Fuel Management Systems. No conduit, no problem. The all new Data Transfer Unit uses Wired-Less(TM) technology to transmit data from the Vapor Flow Meter and Vapor Pressure Sensor back to the INCON console across existing dispenser wires. This new development, which is compatible for use with most common dispenser models, can save you thousands of dollars in conduit installation costs when upgrading your site with Vapor Recovery Monitoring (ISD). Advantages

The April 2009 Stage II EVR upgrade deadline is looming. If you still need to obtain permits, purchase your equipment and arrange for installation by a certified contractor, don't panic. The TS-DTU eliminates the need to run additional communication wires for your ISD upgrade, cutting installation time and cost significantly. In addition, your station will remain free from the delays and shutdowns caused by having to break concrete for installation.
