Introduction

Please read carefully! No liability can be accepted for damage caused by improper use or installation of the Tracer 3000 Level Transmitter. 

The Tracer 1000™ 3G Guided Wave Radar Level Transmitter is ideal for level measurement of liquids, solids, bulk 

materials, sludge, powders and granules to a distance of 60ft 8 in. Guided-wave technology sends the radar pulse down 

a probe to measure either liquids or solids. The pulse hits the surface and is reflected back up the probe to the sensor, 

where the transit time is translated into a distance using time of fight and time expansion. The amplitude of the reflection 

depends on the dielectric constant of the product. This technology is not affected by pressure, temperature, viscosity, 

vacuum, foam, dust, changes in dielectric constant or coating of the probe.

       Safety Precautions

If you are unsure of the suitability of a Tracer 1000™ for your installation, please consult your FLO-CORP representative for 

further information.

NOTE: REMOVE ALL PACKING INSERTS BEFORE OPERATING LEVEL TRANSMITTER.

Authorized Personnel

All operations described in this operating instructions manual must be carried out only by trained specialist personnel 
authorized by the plant operator. During work on and with the device the required personal protection equipment must 

always be worn.

Warning about misuse

Inappropriate or incorrect use of the instrument can give rise to application-specific hazards, e.g. vessel over fill or damage 

to system components through incorrect mounting or adjustment.

General Safety Instructions

The user must take note of the safety instructions in this operating instructions manual , the country specific installation 

standards as well as all prevailing safety regulations and accident prevention rules. The instrument must only be operated 

in a technically flawless and reliable condition. The operator is responsible for trouble-free operation of the instrument. 

During the entire duration of use, the user is obliged to determine the compliance of the required occupational safety 

measures with the current valid rules and regulations and also take note of new regulations.

Disclaimer

The information contained in this document is subject to change without notice. FLO-CORP makes no representations or 

warranties with respect to the contents hereof and specifically disclaims any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness
