2.Note

Please read these operating instructions before unpacking and putting the unit

into operation. Follow the instructions precisely as described herein.

The devices are only to be used, maintained and serviced by persons familiar

with these operating instructions and in accordance with local regulations

applying to health & safety and prevention of accidents.

3.Instrument Inspection

Instruments are inspected before shipping and sent out in perfect condition.

Scope of delivery

The standard delivery includes:

Capacitive Level Monitor NSC

Cable gland 1x M20x1,5 ( 2 atex version )

Operating Instructions

4.Description

This level switch instruments for solids NSC, has been designed to be used in all

applications where the level of the solid must be detected in tanks and silos.

5.Operating principle

The NSC sensor together with the wall of the tank is a capacitor.

The dielectric constant of this capacitor is the air when the product (media) doesn’t

reach the sensor. When the product covers the sensor, the dielectric constant is

the product one. The electronic circuit of the NSC detects this change and

activates an output relay.

NSC

6.Mechanical connection

The NSC has a thread of 1”BSP male. The sensitive part of the probe goes from

the PP isolator to the end of the probe.

Check that lenght of probe is according the level to be detected.

When the housing is installed in the outdoor it is recommended to protect it against

sun radiation and rain by means of a small roof.

When installing the probe of the NSC by means of an extension sleeve, the max.

lenght of this sleeve must be 70mm to avoid short-circuit in between the tank and

the probe due to product accumulation inside the sleeve.

7.Electrical connection

VERY IMPORTANT

Be sure that power supply corresponds with the indicated in the equipment’s

label.

GREEN led lighting indicates that equipment is powered

RED led lighting indicates that output relay is activated.

Using SELECTOR 1, you can choose relay operation NO or NC when the

product covers the probe.

Protection fuse of 0.5mA must be put in serial with supply line.

Ground terminal is internally tied to the connection thread.

Be sure that ground line has same potential than ground of thank.

If you are not sure, please do not connect the ground terminal since the

instrument could be damaged.

8.Adjustment

After installation and connection verification, we proceed to AJUST SENSITIVITY to fit

the NSC with the tank and the product to measure.

Check that product doesn’t reach the probe. Power supply GREEN LED must be ON

1. Put DIP-SWITCH 1 to “MAX” position.

2. Turn the “SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT screw” clockwise until RED LED

lights.

NSC

DT0307 Page 7

3. Turn slowly the “SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT screw” counter clockwise until

RED LED switches off.

4. Turn 360º more counter clockwise to avoid a critical adjustment. In case of

sticky products it is recommended to increase this adjustment.

The instrument is now adjusted. When product will reach the probe relay will be

activated and RED LED will light.

If we want the relay to work the REVERSE, put DIP-SWITCH 1 to “MIN”.

Check that no product remains on the probe when unloading the tank.

8.1 Module replacement

MODCAP modules are delivered with DIP-SWITCHES 2, 3 and 4 adjusted with its own

probe. In case of replacement, following procedure must be done with the probe free of

product:

1. With DIP-SWITCH 1 to “MAX” and 2, 3 and 4 to “MIN”, turn the multiturn

potentiometer totally to clockwise (20 turns). RED LED will switch ON.

2. In case that RED LED doesn’t lights, move DIP-SWITCH 4 (drawing 1) to

ON. If RED LED still remains OFF, do same with DIP SWITCH 3 (drawing 2)

and finally with DIP-SWITCH 2 (drawing 3) until RED LED finally lights.

Drawing 1 Drawing 2 Drawing 3

3. Once DIP-SWITCHES are correctly settled the SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT

must be done (chapter 8).

9.Models

There are 2 basic models of NSC:

NSC..R

The probe is a rod made of st.st. and covered with PTFE.

It is used for minimum and intermediate level detection.

It is produced a Standard version with a sensor of a maximum length of 3000mm

NSC..C

The probe is a flexible cable covered with PP, with a st.st. weight at the end. It is

used for maximum level detection.
