Model No.: EILS – 0621
Use: for Loading/Unloading of Tankers by Pumping
ESD Control Systems has been manufacturing Earth Interlock Systems for solvent tanker over last 9-years. considering ease of utility and without changing the entity parameters. The working of new model is as follows.
We have observed that majority of installations the pumps used serve dual purpose of pumping in words in to storage tanks, and also to pump to utility areas, therefore it is necessary to keep all the pumps of the solvent loading area in working condition when there is no tanker present for unloading.
To achieve this purpose, the instrument when not in use, stands at standby mode where all the concerned pumps keep working normal.
When a tanker arrives at bay for unloading, the instrument can be switched on by simple ON-OFF push buttons provided on the instrument. The middle yellow colour LED which lights during standby mode turns off taking the instrument into interlock mode all the pumps turn off.
The Red LED glows and buzzer gives Bip Bip signal while the clamp is hooked on to tanker body, The earth loop checks earthing resistance of tanker body to earth pit and if it is less than 9.5-Ohms (value preset at factory as peer IS/IES to less than 10 Ohms). green LED turns on, switching the Red LED off and also turning off the biping buzzer.
Now the setup is ready for starting the unloading operation. Since the earth loop is ok for the electro-static discharge all the pumps in solvent inlet areas become normal for operation and if there is no earth fault, will continue till all the unloading is done.
Now to return to standby mode push the red colour off switch, the instrument resumes standby mode the clamp and other hose pipes can be removed.
For clarity on installation work, two drawings are enclosed in the manual.

The System comes with a weather protection metallic cabinet which is floor mounted
Material pre requisition list is also given in the manual.
Explosive atmospheres in the workplace can be caused by flammable gases, mists or vapours or by combustible dusts. Explosions can cause loss of life and serious injuries as well as significant damage.
Background
Explosive atmospheres can be caused by flammable gases, mists or by combustible dusts. If there is enough of the substance, mixed with air, then all it needs is a source of ignition to cause an explosion. Accumulated static charges on equipments and tanker while solvents are handled, readily provides this third parameter.
Explosion can cause loss of life and serious injuries as well as significant damage. Preventing releases of dangerous substances, which can create explosive atmospheres, and preventing sources of ignition are two widely used ways of reducing the risk. Using the correct equipment can greatly help this.
The Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulation 2002 (DSEAR) place duties on employers to eliminate or control the risks from explosive atmospheres in the workplace. A summary of those requirements can be found below.
This page does not deal with intentional explosives such as those used in demolition work or blasting in quarries.
An explosive atmosphere is defined as a mixture of dangerous substances with air, under atmospheric condition, in the form of gases, vapours, mist or dust in which, after ignition has occurred, combustion spreads to the entire unburned mixture. An explosive atmosphere is an accumulation of gas, mist, dust or vapor, mixed with air, which has the potential to catch fire or Explosion. An explosive atmosphere does not always result in an explosion, but if it caught fire the flames would quickly travel though it and if this happens in a confined space (e.g., in plant or equipment) the rapid spread of the flames or rise in pressure could also cause explosion atmospheric conditions are commonly referred to as ambient temperatures and pressures. That is to say temperatures of – 200C to 400C and pressures of 0.8 to 1.1 bar…
Many workplaces may contain, or have activities that produce, explosive or potentially explosive atmospheres. Examples include places where work activities create or release flammable gases or vapours, such as vehicle paint spraying, or in workplaces handling fine organic dusts such as grain flour or wood, classified as Zone-1.
Liquids
Liquids (such as petrol and other fuels) and solvents in industrial products (such as paint, ink, adhesives and cleaning fluids) give off flammable vapour which, when mixed with air, can ignite or explode. Flammable liquids are classed as:
Extremely flammable
Liquids which have a flash point lower than 00C and a boiling point (or, in the case of a boiling range, the initial boiling point) lower than or equal to 350C.
Highly flammable
Liquids which have a flash point below 210C but which are extremely flammable.
Flammable Dusts
Dusts can be produced from many everyday materials such as coal, wood, grain, sugar, certain metals and synthetic organic chemicals. A cloud of combustible dust in the air can explode violently if ignited.
Gases
Gases such as liquefied petroleum gas or methane. These are usually stored under pressure in cylinders and bulk containers. Uncontrolled releases can readily ignite or cause the cylinder to become a missile.
Solids
Solids include materials such as plastic foam, packaging, and textiles which can burn fiercely and give off dense black smoke, sometimes poisonous.
This manual provides complete information of installation, operation and maintenance procedures and instructions for operating Advanced Earth Interlocking System. Read this manual before attempting to install and operate EILS – 0621.
Each EILS–0621 System consists of the following sub components or equipment:
EILS-0621is a system useful for controlling Static Electricity Discharges in Hazardous areas in Bulk Drug, Chemical & Pharma and other industries handling inflammable liquids, solvents and explosive propellants. This system continuously monitors Earth connectivity to ground & prevents accumulation of static electricity and discharges during tanker un-loading and loading.
EILS-0621enables or disables power supply to existing transfer pump switching system. The pumps can only be switched “ON” manually for solvent transfer if the resistance to Ground (RG) from Tanker to Earth Connection is <= 10 Ohms. And the pump will be automatically stopped if there is by any chance Earth Failure or High Resistance is detected during solvent/chemical transfer.
The EILS-0621System continuously monitors the earth connection from Tanker to Earth Connection. It has RED, GREEN, YELLOW coloured high bright LED indication systems indicating, clamp contact to tanker and earth loop check of less than 10 OHMS and STAND BY Mode RESPECTIVELY. Operator can be easily alerted to know the status of grounding during Transfer Process with this unique technology.
This unit is designed specially by incorporating Spark free switching mechanism works with intrinsically safe ultra-low voltage & current feature. This system has highly sophisticated electronic sub-assemblies populated with high performance, long lasting and most reliable components from various reputed manufacturers.
The FLP enclosure meets industry standards, made out of Cast Aluminium with flame proof design, weather proof and certified by CMRI, Dhanbad. (Please find enclosed copy of certificate) and completely integrated unit is also tested for several Physical and Electrical tests like Burn-In test, Functional Testes, Mechanical Shock, Vibration, Drop, Dump etc. as desired by Industrial Applications.
The EILS-0621is a very important system wherever hazardous material is being transferred though tankers, bulk containers etc. this system has been designed in accordance to the requirements of the industry studied and continual development over a period of 4 years.
The EILS-0621is user friendly System, very easy to install and operate and available for prompt delivery with additional accessories and alternative cabling solutions.
The EILS-0621ensures the highest possible levels of safe, positive earthing for road tanker during flammable liquid transfer operations. Unlike conventional systems, the EILS-0621provides failsafe confirmation of the static earth condition using Industrial Grade Subcomponents Electronics.
