GETTING

 

STARTED

 

Step

 

Five

 

LVU2800

 

Series

 

can

 

be

 

configured

 

before

 

installation.

  

The

 

switch

 

features

 

non

volatile

 

memory,

 

so

 

the

 

set

 

points

 

configured

 

before

 

installation

 

will

 

not

 

be

 

lost

 

when

 

the

 

switch

 

is

 

powered

 

down.

  

To

 

start,

 

all

 

you

 

need

 

is

 

the

 

following

 

information:

 

 

Basic

 

Tank

 

Information:

 

o

 

HEIGHT

 

 

Distance

 

from

 

the

 

transducer

 

face

 

to

 

the

 

bottom

 

of

 

the

 

tank.

 

o

 

FILL

H

 

 

Maximum

 

fill

 

height

 

of

 

the

 

liquid

 

from

 

the

 

bottom

 

of

 

the

 

tank.

 

o

 

These

 

values

 

will

 

all

 

be

 

in

 

the

 

same

 

distance

 

value

 

(inches,

 

centimeters,

 

feet

 

or

 

meters)

 

and

 

will

 

all

 

be

 

measured

 

from

 

the

 

bottom

 

of

 

the

 

tank.

 

 

Power:

  

o

 

Provide

 

12

 

to

 

28

 

VDC

 

input

 

power

 

to

 

the

 

LVU2800

 

Series.
