SOR 681 Point Level Control Gebrauchsanweisung

Form 924 (05.18) ©SOR Inc

1/16

The 681 Point Level Control utilizes DPDT relays to provide switching

for peripheral devices (such as pumps) in level applications. A sensor

attached to the control acts as an antenna to transmit the process

material level to the electronics.

The failsafe switch allows the user to determine the relay state when

the process contacts the probe.

The 681 Point Level Control can be mounted with the sensor in the

process (integral units K housing), or up to 150’ (45m) from the

sensor in the remote configuration (R housing).

The 681 Point Level Control constantly monitors sensor integrity. In the

unlikely event of a sensor failure, a secondary relay provides alarm switching.

An optional adjustable differential circuit (AD accessory) allows the user

to select on and off level points for the control. (All adjustments will be

present, but only those corresponding to the accessory in the model

number will function.)

Pre-Installation Test



Remove instrument from shipping box and visually inspect for obvious physical dam-

age. Report any shipping damage to the carrier. Report any internal discrepancies to

the factory representative in your area. Record the serial number from the nameplate

should conversation with the factory be necessary.



Remove housing cover.



Place instrument on an insulated surface or support so sensor does not touch a

conductive surface.



Ensure area is safe and observe normal precautions for exposed and powered

electronic components.



Apply appropriate power to terminals of Line Power Terminal Block. (See page 6.)

Move failsafe select switch to LO position and observe green LVL LED. (See ).



Turn the Level adjustment clockwise (25 turns) to decrease the set point until the

green LVL LED turns on.

NOTE: Do not turn the Level adjustment past 25 turns! Damage to the unit could result.



Turn the LEVEL adjustment counterclockwise until the green LED turns off.



Slowly move a hand toward the probe to touch it. The green LED will be on when the

probe is touched. If not, turn the LEVEL adjustment clockwise less than one turn. The

green LED should be on when the probe is touched.



When practical, use a small container of actual process material to calibrate the con-

trol. If the actual process vessel is metal, use a metal container (coffee can, etc.) and

ground it to the instrument housing. If the actual process vessel is an insulator, such

as fiberglass, use a plastic container.



Immerse the sensor in the process material; the LED should light. If not, it may be

necessary to turn the level adjustments.

To detect an interface, such as oil/water or foam/liquid, the lighter material must be

on the sensor, then tuned out. Then move the LEVEL adjustment to detect the heavier

process material. (See and ).

Conduit must be installed between the sensor base and the electronics housing to provide

a raceway for sensor extension cables. (See ).

If the sensor is a solid rod it may be cut or bent for clearance or placement. Use a 3-inch radius

should a bend be required. It is permissible to increase the sensor length by welding a length of

identical rod to the supplied sensor. Re-calibration is required if the probe length is changed.

Installation

Standard Conguration is a 3/4” NPT(M) pipe nipple that threads into a 3/4” NPT(F) vessel

nozzle or half coupling. Allow a 4-inch turn radius. (See and

). Open tanks, vats,

sumps or basins may require a locally-made bracket mount similar to that shown in

Optional Conguration is a raised face or flat face ANSI flange. See Form 1100 for selection.

(See and

Orientation The control can be mounted in any position. Placement and orientation of the

sensor in a vessel is usually determined by available nozzles. The sensor should be away

from fill points to avoid false trips. The insulator bushing on the sensor should protrude

a minimum of 1” from the inner wall of the vessel. The sensor must not touch any metal,

nor should conductive process build-up be allowed to bridge between the sensor and a

grounded metal tank wall.

This product must be installed with an explosion proof breather vent

per Agency requirements and the National Electrical Code-Article 501,

Section F, paragraph 3.

Remote Cable Connection

Electical power must be disconnected from explosion proof models before

the cover is removed. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury

or substantial property damage.

Ensure that wiring conforms to all applicable local and national electrical codes and install

unit(s) according to relevant national and local safety codes.

Fishing the Sensor Extension Cables

One three-conductor extension cable is required. Pull cable from the sensor base so that

the free ends follow the fish through the conduit. (See ).

Connections Inside Sensor Base

Inside the sensor base, a remote circuit

board rests in a plastic holder. Attach the

cable wires to the terminal block on the

circuit board as follows:

Connections Inside Electronics Housing

Inside the electronics housing, unscrew the bracket holding the circuit board in place. Pull

the board out of the holder. At the bottom of the circuit board, there is a connector labeled

“+ - probe”. Attach the cable wires to the terminal block as shown above.

Conduit must be installed between the sensor base and the electronics housing to provide a

raceway for sensor extension cables. (See ).

Set Point and Sensor Monitor Calibration

The failsafe mode on either rising or falling level can be easily changed in the field. See

procedure and chart below.

NOTE: Upon loss of power, or some component failures, the output relay is de-energized and its

contacts return to the “shelf position” NC (Normally Closed) to signal an alarm condition

regardless of process level.

Sensor Monitor Calibration



Disconnect the probe wire from the circuit.



Turn the SENSOR MONITOR adjustment until the red Sensor Monitor LED just lights.

The circuit will close the normally open contacts on the ALARM relay.



Reconnect the probe wire to the circuit board. The circuit will return the ALARM relay

contacts to the normal state.

Set Point Calibration



Disconnect line power supply.



Remove the housing cover.



Rotate DIFFERENTIAL adjustment 25 turns clockwise, or until you hear the

potentiometer click.



Look at the chart below to determine the correct failsafe switch setting for your application.

Units in Hazardous Locations — Prior to calibration, make sure that the

work area is declassied before removing the explosion proof cover to

calibrate the unit. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury or

substantial property damage.
