MonoScan Users Manual viii >

MonoScan is an ultrasonic, continuous-level measurement gauge of mono-block construction (combining the sensor and electronic components in a single unit). MonoScan measures the height of both liquids and solids accurately. It can be used for the following measurement tasks: Liquid tanks with calm surfaces Solids tanks that are dust-free Open channel flow measurement MonoScan has a range of up to 15 m (49.21 ft) with an accuracy of 0.25% within that range. MonoScan is available in three models: MonoScan L for liquids (Standard Range/Short Range) MonoScan S for solids (Standard Range/Short...

Material Description Coated Aluminum (Halar Designed for complex environments with problematic echoes, such as non-conductive vapors, solids or liquids. Good performance in problematic applications. Usable in highly acidic or alcoholic environments. High sensitivity to echoes. ECTFE) >

MonoScan Users Manual 6 > Ensure that MonoScan is mounted in an area that meets the stated temperature, pressure and technical specifications. Ensure that high-voltage sources or cables are at least 1 m away from the sensor and its cable. Use round cables with minimum diameter of 6 - 7 mm to ensure that the unit remains sealed, IP 65. Ensure that cables are routed correctly and tightened along walls or pipes. Installation and operation of this product should be performed, according to the Product User Manual and Product Certification. Otherwise the use of this product is prohibited. >

NOTE: If the device enters the blocking distance (dead zone), it will not measure correctly. > NOTE: Even the slightest difference in angle may affect echo quality. >

MonoScan Users Manual 8 Placed as far as possible from noisy areas, such as a filling inlet. > NOTE: When installed in a humid environment it is recommended to position the sensor on a tripod on top of the vessel. MonoScan is available in two thread types, 2" BSP or 2" NPT. MonoScan can be installed with threaded-flange mounting or with thread-free flange mounting, as shown below: Figure 3: Threaded Flange/Thread-Free Flange Mounting >

NOTES: When installing a thread-free flange mounted unit, you will need a 2" locking nut to secure the unit inside the tank. When installing a threaded flange, ensure that it matches the MonoScan threads. > NOTE: Tighten the nut by hand only . When tightening the nut, hold the lower part of the MonoScan unit. Make sure that the seal is leak proof. >

MonoScan Users Manual 10 > If the level of the measured surface falls within the dead-zone area, you should use an extension pipe to mount MonoScan. When using an extension pipe, ensure that: The sensor is positioned in the center of the pipe. The pipe extension is parallel to the side/tank walls. The internal pipe diameter is at least 3" wide. When installing the MonoScan with extension pipes, follow these specifications: Pipe Length Internal Pipe Diameter 0.50 m (1.64 ft) 3" > NOTE: It is always recommended to use interference signal feature (Pr.03) to locate interfering signals when...
