The RCM is part of a secondary overfill prevention system. It is an optional accessory

that receives alarm information from the TD80 level transmitter, providing overfill

information to industry standard 5-wire optic and 2-wire thermistor terminal rack

controllers. The RCM may be used on single or two compartment tankers equipped

with a TD80 level gauging system.

The RCM continuously checks one or two TD80 transmitters for overfill or any unsafe

condition to halt the loading process. All conditions must be safe for the RCM to

permit loading. Communication from the TD80 transmitters, vehicle battery voltage,

loaded volume and alarm states are automatically and continuously tested to ensure

a safe and reliable system prior to and during the loading process.

The RCM is compatible with all existing TD80 installation configurations, including

onboard loading pump or bottom loading valve control. It will work with both Dual Rod

and Coaxial Probe TD80 transmitters, multiple Finch displays, MIC 10 interface

The RCM is an upgrade to systems using the P2000 5-wire optic terminal rack

optional secondary overfill prevention system. TD80 generated alarms

provide the approaching overfill information to halt loading at industry

standard optic and thermistor controlled loading racks, on-board loading

pumps or valves.
