Thank you for choosing a HiTECH/NIVELCO instrument.

We are sure that you will be satisfied throughout its use.

1. INTRODUCTION

A Total beam angle of 5°-7°at –3 dB as is featured by most of

HiTECH/Nivelco’s SenSonic transducers ensuring a reliable measurement

in narrow silos with uneven side walls as well as in process tanks with

various protruding objects. Furthermore, as a result of the narrow beam

angle - the emitted ultrasonic signals have an outstanding focusing - deep

penetration through gases, vapour and foam is ensured.

Application

The EasyTREK compact ultrasonic level transmitters from HITECH/NIVELCO

are excellent tools for level measurement of liquids.

Level measurement technology based on the non-contacting ultrasonic

principle is especially suited for applications where, for any reason, no

physical contact can be established to the surface of the material to be

measured.

Principle of Operation

The ultrasonic level metering technology is based on the principle of

measuring the time required for the ultrasound pulses to make a round trip

from the sensor to the level to be measured and back. The sensor emits an

ultrasonic pulse train and receives the echoes reflected. The intelligent

electronic device processes the received signal by selecting the echo

reflected by the surface and calculates from the time of flight the distance

between the sensor and the surface which constitutes the basis of all output

signals of the EasyTREK.

Minimum measuring distance (Xm) is determined by the design of the unit within which the measurement is not possible (Dead Zone) its value is according

with P05 on page 26. Since measurement is impossible within this range material should not get into this zone.

Maximum measuring distance (XM) is the greatest distance (determined by the design of the unit) which can be measured by the unit under ideal conditions.

(See parameter P04 on page 25). Maximum measuring distance of the actual application (H) must not be greater than XM.

3. INSTALLATION

3.1 LIQUID LEVEL MEASUREMENT

POSITION

The ideal position of the EasyTREK is on the radius

r = (0.3 … 0.5) R of the (cylindrical) tank / silo.

(Take also sonic cone on page 1 into consideration.)

SENSOR ALIGNMENT

The sensor face has to be parallel to the

surface of the liquid within ±2-3°.

TEMPERATURE

Make sure that the transmitter is

protected against overheating by

direct sunshine.

spa3804a0600p_02

OBSTACLES

Make sure that no objects (cooling pipes, bracing members,

thermometers etc.) protrude into the sensing cone of the ultrasonic

beam.

Remark: EasyTREK programming allows one fixed object that would

otherwise disturb the measurement to be blocked out. (see P29 of

programming).

FOAM

Foaming of the liquid surface may render ultrasonic level metering

impossible. If possible, a location should be found, where foaming is

the least (device should be located as far as possible from liquid

inflow) or a stilling pipe or well should be used.

WIND

Intensive air (gas) movements in the vicinity of the ultrasonic

cone is to be avoided. A strong draft of wind may "blow away"

the ultrasound. Devices with lower measuring frequency (40,

20 kHz) are recommended.

FUMES / VAPOURS

For closed tanks containing chemicals or other liquids, which

creates fume/gases above the liquid surface especially for

outdoor tanks exposed to the sun, a strong reduction of the

nominal measuring range of the ultrasonic device is to be

considered during device selection. Devices with lower

measuring frequency (40, 20 kHz) are recommended in these

cases.

STAND-OFF

The structure of the stand off pipe should be rigid; the inner rim where the ultrasonic beam leaves the pipe should be rounded.
