Network of TraceTek TTDM-NMM <strong>and</strong> TTDM-SIM Modules<br />

The network of TTDM-NMM <strong>and</strong> TTDM-SIM modules adds capabilities beyond those<br />

of a st<strong>and</strong>-alone TraceTek TTDM single-channel alarm <strong>and</strong> locating module. Note that<br />

a separate operation <strong>and</strong> maintenance manual is available for the st<strong>and</strong>-alone single<br />

channel system (Raychem document H55472).<br />

In a network of TTDM-NMM <strong>and</strong> TTDM-SIM modules, each TTDM-SIM Sensor<br />

Interface Module (<strong>and</strong> the Sensor Interface board in the TTDM-NMM Network Master<br />

Module) can independently monitor up to 5000 ft (1500 m) of sensing cable. If liquid<br />

contacts sensing cable connected to a Sensor Interface Module, that module communicates<br />

the alarm condition to the TTDM-NMM Network Master Module, which signals<br />

an alarm, displays the distance to the leak, <strong>and</strong> records the event. The TTDM-NMM<br />

communicates with the SIMs over an RS-485 network (which uses a shielded, twisted<br />

pair); see Appendix 5 for wiring details. The RS-485 address for each SIM is assigned<br />

using the TTDM-NMM system software.<br />

A TTDM-NMM Network Master Module can monitor up to 15 TTDM-SIMs, allowing a<br />

maximum of 80,000 ft (24,000 m) of sensing cable in a single system. In addition,<br />

each TTDM-NMM has an assignable RS-485 address, which allows a host system to<br />

monitor up to 31 TTDM-NMM leak detection systems.<br />
