3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION FEATURES Principle of Operation Beam blockage A beam of microwave energy passes from a sender to a separate receiver in bursts approximately 200 times per second. If the path between the sender and receiver is blocked by any object or material which absorbs or reflects microwave energy, then the receiver will not be able to detect the signal. The presence or absence of the signal at the receiver is used to switch a relay for indication or control purposes.

13 MOUNTING GENERAL GUIDELINES 1. The microwave beam is a polarized form of energy. As such, it is necessary to align the units in the same spatial plane. If the units do not have the same orientation, the amount of received energy is diminished. At 90 to each other, the detector is blind and cannot detect the beam. The actual angle of mounting is not relevant, so long as both the Sender & Receiver have the same angle and elevation. Flanges are marked with an alignment notch to assist in mounting correctly. 2. When looking for a mounting location, try to locate and mount the inside of the window for each unit flush with the vessel wall and where minimal build-up will occur. The system can penetrate through generous amounts of buildup of various products, however, the better the position, the more reliably it will operate. 3. Microwave energy cannot penetrate through steel linings or other conductive linings. You must cut a viewing hole and use an appropriate windowed weldment. 4. For high vibration applications, it is necessary to isolate the electronics to keep them from long term damage. This is most often accomplished using 4 UHMW or teflon windowed weldments in the vessel walls, and mounting the Microwave Sender and Receiver to a separate stable structure (I-beam, handrail) to isolate them from vibration. Isolation shock mounts can also be provided to help protect the electronics. 5. For applications which exceed 60 C/140 F (precipitators, cement cyclones, etc.), it is necessary to ensure that the sensors always remain below 60 C/140 F. This is normally achieved by installation of temperature resistant windows of ceramic or firebrick, and positioning of the Sender and Receiver in line with the windows, and set back far enough that their temperature remains below the given limit. Where this is impossible, it will be neccessary to use remote mounting microwaves with waveguide assemblies. This allows the electronics to be placed in an area where ambient temperatures do not exceed the maximum allowable for operation. It is necessary to contact the factory for this last type of waveguide application. 12

14 MOUNTING CORRECT MOUNTING ANGLE Correct Elevation Maximum Signal Strength to Receiver is indicated by maximum brightness of Green LED on Receiver. Sending Unit Microwave Beam Receiving Unit Incorrect Elevation Sending Unit Receiving Unit ALIGN SENDER AND RECEIVER Rotate so that Visual Alignment Guide is in the same position on both sender and receiver.! Correct rotational alignment is critical for correct performance 13

Position blocked chute detectors to one side of main product flow 14

17 MOUNTING SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS 1. When mounting to monitor the level of a flowing product such as coal, ore or wood chips, position the microwave path out of the direct product flow stream. If at all possible, go behind the flow stream or well in front of it. This will minimise any possibility of unwanted trips due to abnormal product flow blocking the beam. 2. When mounting to monitor for absence/ presence or plugged chute conditions, the Sender & Receiver must be mounted opposite each other observing correct elevation and orientation. The system should be mounted in such a way that as product reaches the level of the sensors, the beam will be broken. 3. When using the system as a proximity switch, the mounting arrangement is application dependent and must ensure proper operation even under worst case conditions. Please consult your representative or the factory for specific advice relating to mounting arrangements. 4. Mounting of a Microwave system on sloped vessel walls can be accomplished using the Microwave Adjustable Mount (MA- 12 or MA-13). This system allows the microwaves to be mounted to a sloped surface and then adjusted horizontally for optimum performance and operation. The adjustable mount has an integral 4 weldment with UHMW polyethylene or PTFE (teflon) window options. An option with the bracket is a vibration isolation kit (shock mounts) to help protect the electronics from damage. Each side wall of the vessel must not exceed 30 degrees from the vertical centerline. To mount the adjustable bracket, simply cut a hole and weld the 4 weldment directly to the vessel, install the window, mount the microwave and adjust horizontally. Similar performance can be obtained by fabrication of fixed brackets which mount the Sender and Receiver in direct line with one another and aimed through the centre of two MA-4 windowed weldments. 16

28 WIRING TEST TERMINAL FUNCTION SELECTION The test terminal has two potential modes of operation for Smart Integral units and always operates in the test input mode for Remote units. Remote units have a separate, failsafe relay contact, which is always functional. TEST INPUT MODE (Test switch must be in TEST (ON) position on Smart Integral Units - function always enabled on Remote Units) Test terminal acts as an input for remote testing of the instrument s switching function. Used to check for malfunction of unit from a remote position, PLC, SCADA etc. For more information see page 29.

31 SETUP PROCEDURE SMART INTEGRAL VERSION! 1. Mount the units in their actual position (See mounting procedure - pages 12-16) Make sure that external ground wire on both the sender and receiver is connected between the outside ground screw on the Gladiator housing and the roof/wall/side of the silo/tank/vessel/ chute. (For non metallic tanks make sure that external ground wire is connected between the same outside ground screw on the housing and the general plant ground potential). 2. Check where the actual level or target is located relative to the sensors Make sure that the material or target is not blocking the path between sender and receiver. 3. Turn the power on The green LED on the sender and receiver will stay on permanently to indicate that power is on. Green LED on receiver varies in brightness with strength of received signal. 4. Ensure that the REM/INT DIP switch on the Sender unit is selected to the INT (ON) position and the remaining switches (1, 2, 3) are all selected to OFF initially. See point 1 page Select the required relay action The Relay can switch ON or OFF as the microwave beam is blocked and switch ON or OFF in response to an instrument failure (for details see page 19). Set the relay action selection switch position (FSL or FSH) depending on your requirements. 6. Cancel influence of mounting Do not proceed with this step unless the material or target position is well beneth the line between the sender and receiver. Switch the Mounting Calibration switch on the Receiver unit to (ON) position. The Blue LED will blink to indicate that mounting calibration is now in progress. Wait for at least 10 sec, then switch the mounting calibration switch to OFF position. The blue LED should turn off after a short time. The blue LED will stay on if there was a calibration error. If this is the case please check that the path between sender and receiver is clear, then try the calibration again. If mounting calibration was successful the blue LED should be off and the Green LED should be ON. Unit is now able to cancel influence of mounting and measurement history has been cleared. 6. Select the sensitivity There are two adjustments controlling the sensitivity of the switch point: 6.1 The HI/LO sensitivity switch is used as a coarse adjustment of the sensitivity of the unit. Select HI sensitivity if build-up is expected over sensors or with strongly absorptive materials or targets. Select LO sensitivity for cleaner environments and less absorptive material or targets. 6.2 The sensitivity potentiometer Set the potentiometer according to your requirements. A 12 o clock setting (50%) - default, will cover the majority of instances - for the remaining instances, turning the potentiometer clockwise will increase sensitivity. Increasing sensitivity may be necessary if the green signal LED does not illuminate brightly with no blocking of the signal path, or if there is build-up of material over the sensor. 7. Select the time delay Set the required delay using the Delay potentiometer. (Default is 0 sec. at minimum position) Turn the potentiometer clockwise if any delay is required. Maximum rotation is ¾ of a revolution. Max delay is 20 sec. The selected delay will be used for both an ON delay and an OFF delay.* * Setting of different time ranges for the delay potentiometer for ON delay and OFF delay is possible using a PC connected via GosHawk2 software. By default, both will have the same time adjustment range (20 sec max) and adjustment will result in equal ON delay and OFF delay. 30

32 SETUP PROCEDURE SMART INTEGRAL VERSION 8. Test function (used to check for malfunction of unit from remote position, PLC, SCADA etc) Select the desired Test function by switching the Test switch (Default = OFF ). TEST (ON) Position: Test function is selected. Test terminal (terminal number 4 of Smart integral unit) is used as an input to the unit. The test function allows you to check the functionality of the unit. Applying a ground wire to the Test terminal will change the state of the relay. It will hold this state until the ground is removed, then it will change back to the standard running mode. If the unit was in a Fail mode then the relay will not change states. OFF (Default) Position: Fail safe output function is selected. Test terminal (terminal number 4 of Smart probe) will function as an open drain drive. This can be used to drive a relay or an active low PLC input to detect a Fail condition. In normal operation mode the Test terminal will output Zero Volts (Short to GND). In Fail or unpowered mode the Test terminal will be open circuit. See page

35 SETUP PROCEDURE REMOTE VERSION 1. Mount the unit in its actual position (see mounting procedure - pages 12-16)! 3. Ensure that the mode selection switch on the transmitter is set to REM (OFF). See point 1 page 31. Make sure that external ground wire is connected between the outside ground screw on the Gladiator housing and the roof/wall/side of the silo/tank/vessel/chute. (For non metallic tanks make sure that external ground wire is connected between the same outside ground screw on the housing and the general plant ground potential.) 2. Check where the actual level or target is relative to the sensors Make sure that the material or target is not blocking the path between sender and receiver. 4. Turn the power on The display will turn on and the fail-safe relay will switch. The display will scroll through the following messages: Hawk, Amp SerialNo, Type, Amp Soft Ver, Device ID, SensorSerial, SensorModel, Sens SoftVer, Sensor Addrs, Gladiator System Amp. The unit will then go into operational mode displaying Switch with a % value. This % value represents the changing amount of signal loss between sender and receiver. 5.

Select Yes to start the mounting calibration. Wait will be displayed during the calibration for up to 30 seconds. Unit is now able to cancel the influence of the mounting. The % reading on the back lit display has been zeroed with the existing process conditions and the measurement history log has been cleared. Select the Switch point (sensitivity) The output relay will switch at the entered % value. The default value of 50% will be suitable for detecting most media. For detection of products which are less absorbent of Microwave energy, select a lower % value and vice versa. For highly absorbent materials, almost any setting will work, but higher % settings will be more immune to build up. When the level or target falls below the sensors the relay will switch back at half of the entered switch point % value (when the beam is no longer broken). Select the Time Delay Set the time to be used for both switch on and switch off delays (default: 0.1 seconds). Maximum Delay is 40 seconds. Select the required relay action The Relay can switch ON or OFF as the microwave beam is blocked and switch ON or OFF in response to an instrument failure (for details see page 19). Set the parameter to FailSafe Low or FailSafe Hi depending on your requirements. 34
