OPERATION AND SETTINGS 

The SandSET-1000 12 VDC alarm device is initialized at the factory.  

The operation of the alarm device should be checked always after the 
installation. 

Functionality test 

1. Immerse the sensor into water. The device should be in normal mode. 

 

2. Lift the sensor up in air or sink it into sludge. Alarm LED indicator 

should be lit in 10 seconds.  When LED is on should relays de-energize 
and buzzer be on after selected delay (5 or 30 sec). See chapter 3.1 for 
more details. 

 

3. Immerse the sensor back into water. Alarm LED should go off in 10 

seconds. Relays and buzzer should go back to the normal state after 
delay (5 or 30 sec). Clean up the sensor if necessary before placing it 
back into the separator. 

A more detailed description of the operation is provided in chapter 3.1. 
If  the  operation  is  not  as  described  here,  check  the  factory  settings 
(chapter 3.2.) or contact a representative of the manufacturer. 

3.1 

Operation 

The  operation  of  a  factory-initialized  SandSET-1000  12  VDC  is 
described in this chapter. 

Normal mode 

– no alarms 

The two heads of the SET/S2 sensor are totally immersed in water. 

 

 

 

Mains LED indicator is on. 

 

Other LED indicators are off. 

 

Relays 1 and 2 are energized. 

 

 

Alarm 

The two heads of the SET/S2 sensor are immersed in sludge or sand. 

 

 

 

Mains LED indicator is on. 

 

Alarm LED indicator is on in 10 sec. (Delay of the sensor.) 

 

Buzzer is on after 30

…40 sec delay. (Delay of the control unit incl.) 

 

Relays de-energize after 30

…40 sec delay. 

 

(Note. The same alarm takes place when SET/S2 sensor is in the air.) 

 

 

 

After removal of an alarm (the two heads of the sensor are in water), the 
Alarm LED indicator will be off. Relays will be energized and buzzer will 
be off after a delay of 30

…40 sec. 

 

 

Fault alarm 

Sensor cable break, short circuit or a broken sensor, i.e. too low or too 
high sensor signal current. 

 

 

 

Mains LED indicator is on. 

 

Sensor circuit Fault LED indicator is on after 5 sec delay. 

 

Buzzer is on after 5 sec delay. 

 

The relays de-energize after 5 sec delay. 

 

 

Reset of an alarm 

When pressing the Reset push button.

 

 

 

 

Buzzer will go off. 

 

Relay 1 energizes. 

 

Relay 2 will stay de-energized until the actual alarm or fault is off. 

The operational delay of SET/S2 prevents false alarms from occurring 
when  garbage  or  other  obstacles,  which  weaken  the  measurement 
signal momentarily, pass across the sensors heads. 

Note! When testing the sensor operation in a separate vessel, the water 
put  into  the  vessel  should  stand  for  about  30  minutes  before  testing. 
This prevents false alarms caused by the attachment of air bubbles on 
the sensor heads.
