Configuring the sensitivity
The level switch is factory-set to high sensitivity (setting
B
) and normally
does not need to be changed. However, if the bulk solids material has a
frequent tendency to cake or deposit, a switch on the PCB can be changed to
setting
A
to decrease the sensitivity of the fork sensor.
shows the SPDT relay electronics module as an example. The
other modules have the same configuration switch and default setting.

Sensitivity option V3 is more sensitive than option V2 by having an increased
surface area on the fork.
For measurement of solids in water using a Rosemount 2521S, setting
A
is
recommended. Sensitivity adjustments to the electronics can also be made
using the potentiometer.
