were obtained under ideal testing conditions.Hence,they may differ under industrial environment and settings.General Instructions•Instrument shouldn’t block the materialfilling inlet.•Secure the cover of housing tightly.Tighten the cable glands.For side mounting,the cable glands should point downwards.•For side mounting,provide a baffle to prevent the material from falling on the probe.•When handling forks,do not lift them using their tines.While using them with solids,ensure that material size is less than10mm.•Deforming the shape of the tines may interfere with the fork’s operating frequency.•Make all electrical connections as instructed in the manual.Don’t power on the device before verifying the connections.ing the level out of the capacitance.This capacitance isformed by the sense rod and the metallic container wall,wide well is pro-to the metallic wall Figure 1:Capvel3System DescriptionCAPVEL is composed of cast aluminium housing,supplied with suitable mounting arrangement viz.NPT,BSP or Flanges and two metallic cable entries.An external Earthing /Grounding terminal is also provided.The sensing rod which is mostly Teflon coated.This sensing rod can be replaced by flexible probe for some applications.The stilling tube is also provided for turbulent fluids,irregular width tanks,non-metallic tanks or for fluids with low dielectric (e.g.diesel).Opening the threaded aluminium cover,an electronic insert could be found.This is the electronic unit which converts the level into 4-20mA signal depending on the calibration.The status LED is a bi-color LED that blinks alternately in Red and Green to indicate instrument is in process of converting the level to 4-20mA signal.Two DIP switches are provided to calibrate the 4mA and 20mA points.The calibration is easy and a complete procedure is given in "Calibration"page.The two wires connected at the back are pre-connected sensor wires and should not be disturbed.Also while calibration try to keep hands away from the wires of terminal 6and 7.Now referring to the "Connection Diagram",Capvel can be wired in two possible combinations.Preferred one is galvanically isolated,4-wire combination where only one source of power is available,3-wire,non-isolated combination can also be used.The converted level signal can be sensed using a 4-20mA indicator or PLC 4-206Capvel-BT Features•User

as approaches 20m A)PLC thus should convert level (m to volume from 4to 11.0mA linearly as :-Volum e Volume+Change of Volume per mA x (measured -4)However ,as soon as non-linear starts (11.0m A)PLC should begin level to volume differently .The tank now should be strapped into a num ber of small zones (of level)where volume within each zone could be safelyconsidered linear.Then as long calculated asVolum e =Previous Volum e +(difference of volume /difference of mA)x (measured mA -4)Previous level is volume m easured before existing strapDifference of volume is Maxim um Volume -Min Volum e within the strap Difference of mA is Maximum m A -Min m A within the strap Measured mA is mA just received by PLCFor example shown above,Volume of tank at various mA is:=14L+(28L/7mA)x(measured mA-4)if measured mA is between 4.0mA &11.0mA 11.0mA &13.25mA =54L+(10L/2.25mA)x(measured mA-4)if measured mA is between 13.25mA &15.5mA =64L+(8L/2.25mA)x(measured mA-4)if measured mA is between 15.5mA &17.75mA =72L+(6L/2.25mA)x(measured mA-4)if measured mA is between 17.75mA &20.0mA=42L+(12L/2.25mA)x(measured mA-4)if measured mA is between Volume at various strapping level can be found by taking notes of amount of fluid needed to raise the level,or it can be calculated mathematically from tank dimensions.Also,the m ore the number of straps the better the approxim ation is.Method of

indicative purpose only.These devices should never be used for inventory control,weights and measures or any other placewhere highly accurate measurement of fluid level/volume/weight etc is
