1 Introduction 1.1 Brief description Ring-21 is an economical compact tuning fork liquid level switch. It is designed with a compact and lightweight structure, with only 38 mm long of the fork body while the total length is only 160.5 mm, and the maximum diameter is about only 31.5 mm. Ring-21 can be applied to the level measurement of vessels and storage tanks under difficult conditions. It is not only suitable to use in foams, air bubbles, viscous liquid and conditions with complex vibrating interference, but also particularly suitable to be installed in small containers and tanks with...

2.2 Characteristic (1) Economical pricing with lightweight compact design. Total length is only 160.5mm, the maximum diameter is 31.5 mm and the length of fork body is just 38mm. (2) Especially suitable to measure in pipelines and constricted spaces. (3) Measurable liquid’s density is as low as 0.7g/cm³ . (4) Cost-effective and high cost-performance ratio. (5) Strong anti-interference feature, can work in foams, air bubbles, viscous liquid and conditions with complex vibrating interference. (6) Based on the detection of vibration frequency changing of fork body, the measurement has high...

4.2 Connection cable In general, Ring-21 uses general cable with round cross-section. To ensure its sealing effect, outer diameter is 4.5-8mm. If you are using cable with a different diameter or cross-section, please use matched cable bolt, and be aware of changed cable’s sealing ability. 4.3 Wiring diagram Please wiring safely according to following diagrams. Figure 5, 6 and 7 is the wiring plan for M12×1. Figure 8, 9 and 10 is the wiring plan for the connector of solenoid valve. ⚫ Note: The cable fitting of M12×1 is not equipped with Ring-21 normally. Client can choose the right...

5 Set up 5.1 Modes switch For overfill protection and dry run protection, it should be combined with the practical requirements of the occasion to adjust mode switch (High/Low). Proceed as follows: (1) Use screwdriver to unscrew partial screws on housing. (See Fig. 12) (2) Use straight screwdriver to rotate the electronic potentiometer clockwise to the end, so the instrument is in “High” mode. (See Fig. 13) (3) Use straight screwdriver to rotate the electronic potentiometer counterclockwise to the end, so the instrument is in “Low” mode. (See Fig. 13) (4) After setting the mode, please...

jiwei -itfiJg&fk-- 6 Fault analysis and maintenance 6.1 Fault analysis The operator of the instrument is responsible for taking suitable inspections to rectify faults. Ring-21 offers high quality and reliability. Nevertheless, faults may occur during operation. These may be caused by the following: • Electronics module • Voltage supply • Installation location • Vibrating fork body When faults occur, the first inspection to be taken is to check the output signal. In many cases, the causes can be determined this way and the faults rectified. See Table 3 as reference. Table 3 Fault analysis...
