Kotron® Model 805 Smart RF Level Transmitter
DESCRIPTION
The Kotron® 805 Smart Transmitter is a loop-powered, 24 VDC, liquid-level transmitter based on proven RF Capacitance technology. Encompassing a number of significant engineering accomplishments, this high performance RF level transmitter is designed to provide reliable measurement performance well beyond that of competitive units. The innovative dual-compartment enclosure is a first in the industry, orienting the wiring and electronics in the same plane, and angled to maximize ease of installation, setup, and data display.
TECHNOLOGY
The Kotron 805 combines the proven technology of RF Capacitance with advanced signal processing techniques and convenient user features. As the level rises and falls in a tank or vessel, the amount of capacitance developed between the sensing probe and the tank wall (or ground) also rises and falls. This change in capacitance is digitized for display and HART® communications (optional) and converted into a proportional 4–20 mA analog output signal.
FEATURES
• • • • • • Accepted, proven RF capacitance technology Two-wire, 24 VDC, loop-powered level transmitter HART digital communications (optional) Innovative, ergonomic housing Two-line, 8-character LCD with keypad Probe designs to +1000° F (+535° C)/5000 psig (345 bar) • Intrinsically safe and Non-Incendive approvals • Probes available from 6 inches to 150 feet (15 centimeters to 45 meters)
• Low Power, High Performance
APPLICATIONS
MEDIA: Liquids or slurries; hydrocarbons to water-based media (dielectric 1.5–100). VESSELS: Most process or storage vessels up to rated probe temperature and pressure. CONDITIONS: All level measurement and control applications including process conditions exhibiting visible vapors, surface agitation, bubbling, high fill/empty rates and low product level.
Kotron 805 operates on a remarkably low amount of current. A microprocessor controls the measurement engine, drives the liquid crystal display, enables keypad operation, controls HART communications and provides a 4–20 mA output. A separate wiring compartment isolates the power/signal conductors from the electronics compartment via a sealed feed-through. The compartment is designed to maximize ease of wiring and includes surge and transient protection. The unique enclosure is conveniently angled at 45° to facilitate ease of setup and configuration, and to maximize readability of the liquid crystal display.
• Easy Operation
• Powerful Self Diagnostics
The Kotron 805 employs the latest RF Capacitance measurement techniques. The LCD with two-line display provides a software menu which is very user-friendly featuring push-button calibration, diagnostics, and troubleshooting. HART communication provides the ultimate for calibration, configuration, and diagnostics.
• Simple Calibration
The 805 offers enhanced self diagnostics previously found only on more powerful line-powered instruments. Self diagnostics specifically include continuous check of the electronics plus probe. Error codes and measurement of nominal capacitance assist in calibration and troubleshooting.
Setting of the calibration points of the 805 is easy and requires minimum level change.
