MAGNETROL Kotron 805 Capacitive Level Transmitter

UNPACKING

Unpack the instrument carefully. Make sure all components have been removed from the foam protection. Inspect all components for damage. Report any concealed damage to the carrier within 24 hours. Check the contents of the car-ton/crates against the packing slip and report any discrepancies to Magnetrol. Check the nameplate model number to be sure it agrees with the packing slip and purchase order. Check and record the serial number for future reference when ordering parts.
These units are in conformity with the provisions of:

1. The EMC directive 2014/30/EU.
2. Directive 2014/34/EU for equipment or protective system intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. EC-type examination certificate number KEMA98ATEX4467X.
3. RoHS directive 2011/65/EU (restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment).

SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR ATEX INTRINSICALLY SAFE USE

1. Because the enclosure of the transmitter is made of aluminium alloy, the transmitter must be installed so, that even in the event of rare incidents, an ignition source due to impact or friction between the enclosure and iron/steel is excluded.
2. Probes with an insulating layer, used in a potentially explosive atmosphere with gas, vapour or mist of gas group IIC, may only be used for the measurement of the level of a conductive fluid.

MOUNTING

KOTRON R.F probes
(For installation details see bulletin BE 50-125)

2 cable entries (one plugged): M20 x 1.5 or 3/4″ NPT
For replacing electronics only:
The electronic insert can easily be removed by loosening the 3 mounting screws and unplugging the module. The probe wire is fixed to the PCB by means of a spade plug.

WARNING: Never mount or dismantle a threaded probe by the upper mounting nut for the amplifier (a), ALWAYS use the lower probe mounting nut (b).

WIRING

CAUTION: power must be switched OFF before wiring the unit.

CAUTION: ALWAYS check for proper grounding, Improper grounding will cause malfunction of the unit.

CALIBRATION

NOTE: When connected to an approved barrier, the intrinsically safe electronics of the Kotron 805 allow to remove both covers with power switched on – even if the area is known to be hazardous

IMPORTANT: When the amplifier is not connected to a probe, the screen will show “NO LEVEL SIGNAL”. Ignore this message for bench configuration.

CALIBRATION – TRANSMITTER WITH LCD SCREENMENU: STEP BY STEP PROCEDURE

• Press : The last character on the first line of the display changes to “!”. This sign confirms
• that the values/choices of the second line can be modified via the and push buttons.
• Press  : * Scroll through the choices or increase/decrease the values on the second line of the display by and pushbuttons.
• Accept values/choices as selected by pushbutton.
  • Press : Scroll through the menu.

TERMINOLOGY

NOTE: The above example shows the end of the probe as reference point. Also the bottom or top of the tank can be used as reference
point. Whichever point is used, it must always be used for all further values .

CALIBRATION USING HART®

IMPORTANT: Check whether your HART® communicator is equiped with the 805 Device Descriptors (DD’s). Older purchased devices may require an update – consult your local HART Service Centre or Magnetrol for further assistance.

IMPORTANT
SERVICE POLICY
Owners of Magnetrol products may request the return of a control; or, any part of a control for complete rebuilding or replacement. They will be rebuilt or replaced promptly. Magnetrol International will repair or replace the control, at no cost to the purchaser, (or owner) other than transportation cost if:

• Returned within the warranty period; and,
• The factory inspection finds the cause of the malfunction to be defective material or workmanship.

If the trouble is the result of conditions beyond our control; or, is NOT covered by the warranty, there will be charges for labour and the parts required to rebuild or replace the equipment.
In some cases, it may be expedient to ship replacement parts; or, in extreme cases a complete new control, to replace the original equipment before it is returned. If this is desired, notify the factory of both the model and serial numbers of the control to be replaced. In such cases, credit for the materials returned, will be determined on the basis of the applicability of our warranty.
No claims for misapplication, labour, direct or consequential damage will be allowed.

RETURNED MATERIAL PROCEDURE
So that we may efficiently process any materials that are returned, it is essential that a “Return Material Authorisation” (RMA) form will be obtained from the factory. It is mandatory that this form will be attached to each material returned. This form is available through Magnetrol’s local representative or by contacting the factory. Please supply the following information:

1. Purchaser Name
2. Description of Material
3.  Serial Number and Ref Number
4. Desired Action
5. Reason for Return
6.  Process details

Any unit that was used in a process must be properly cleaned in accordance with the proper health and safety standards applicable by the owner, before it is returned to the factory.
A material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) must be attached at the outside of the transport crate or box.
All shipments returned to the factory must be by prepaid transportation. Magnetrol will not accept collect shipments. All replacements will be shipped Ex Works.
