6.3.6 Fitting the level sensor
ATTENTION
Damage to the pressure load cell due to unprofessional installation
Incorrect installation may result in damage to the "LIS" level sensor, malfunctioning and incorrect measurements from the pressure
load cell.
• Comply with the instructions regarding the installation of the pressure load cell.
The "LIS" level sensor uses a pressure load cell. This pressure pick-up is to be installed after the primary tank has been placed at its final
position, see chapter 6.3.3 "Tank installation" on page 20 . Comply with the following instructions:
• Remove the transport securing device (squared timber) at the vessel base of the primary tank.
• Replace this transport securing device with the pressure load cell.
– In the case of a tank volume of 1000 l (Ø 1000 mm) or more, use the supplied screws to attach the pressure load cell at the
vessel base of the primary tank.
• Avoid shock-type loading of the pressure load cell by, for example, subsequent alignment of the vessel.
• Use flexible hoses to connect the primary tank and the first secondary tank.
– Use only the supplied connection sets, see chapter 6.3.3 "Tank installation" on page 20.
• Perform a null balancing of the filling level when the primary tank is aligned and fully emptied, see chapter 7.6 "Parametrising the
controller in the Customer menu" on page 42.
