T20 standard units are equipped with a single switch mechanism for high or low level alarm or control applications. T21 tandem units are equipped with two switch mechanisms, each operated by a separate float, for applications requiring widely spaced separate high and low level switch actuation. 5 6 4 1 3 2 Pivot 1.1 Return Spring Principle of Operation The simple and foolproof operation of the top mounted float switches is illustrated in figures 1 and 2. A permanent magnet Œ is attached to a pivoted switch actuator and adjustment screw . As the float Ž rises following the liquid level, it raises the attraction sleeve  into the field of the magnet, which then snaps against the non-magnetic enclosing tube , actuating the switch ‘. The enclosing tube provides a static pressure boundary between the switch mechanism and the process. On a falling level, an inconel spring retracts the magnet, deactivating the switch. Process Liquid Rising Level Figure 1 2.0 Process Liquid Falling Level Installation This section provides detailed procedures for properly installing top mounted level switches. Figure 2 Caution: If equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. 2.1 Unpacking Unpack the instrument carefully. Inspect all units for damage. Report any concealed damage to carrier within 24 hours. Check the contents of the packing slip against purchase order. Check and record the model number against serial number for future reference when ordering parts. Model Number Serial Number 4 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 2.2 Critical alarm function It is recommended that for critical alarm functions, an additional level switch be installed as a high–high or low–low level alarm for maximum protection. 2.3 Mounting Caution: Operation of all buoyancy type level devices should be done in such a way as to minimize the action of dynamic forces on the float or displacer sensing element. Good practice for reducing the likelihood of damage to the control is to equalize pressure across the device very slowly. Ensure that no tubes, rods, or other obstacles in the tank or vessel which could interfere with the operation of float(s). Caution: This instrument is intended for use in Installation Category II, Pollution Degree 2. Adjust the process connection as required to bring control to a vertical position. Magnetrol controls must be mounted within three degrees of vertical in all directions. A three degree slant is noticeable by eye, but installation should be checked with a spirit level on top and/or sides of float stem or enclosing tube. NOTE: Do not insulate switch mechanism housing. On controls equipped with pneumatic switch assemblies, consult bulletin on mechanism furnished for air (or gas) piping instructions.

Failure to loosen the set screw prior to repositioning the supply and output connections may cause the enclosing tube to loosen, resulting in possible leakage of the process liquid or vapor. Screw Set Screw Screw Figure 3 Housing Set Screws Top mounting controls are shipped with the conduit entry of the switch housing placed 180° opposite the tank connections to simplify installation in most cases. If the location of the conduit entry on the level switch is appropriate to the installation, proceed to Step 4 to begin wiring the unit. If another configuration is desired, the switch housing can be easily rotated by first following Steps 1, 2, and 3. NOTE: A switch or circuit breaker shall be installed in close proximity to equipment and within easy reach of operator. It shall be marked as the disconnecting device for the equipment. Internal Circuit (Left) Switch 5 6 Close on high level Load Common Close on low level Load Line 4 1 Internal Circuit (Right) Switch 2 3 Load Close on high level Common Close on Load low level Line 1. Loosen set screw(s) at base of switch housing. Refer to Figure 3. 2. Switch housing may be rotated 360° to allow correct positioning of conduit outlet. 3. Tighten set screw(s) at base of switch housing. 4. Unscrew and remove switch housing cover. The threads have been lubricated to facilitate removal. NOTE: For supply connections use wire with a minimum rating of 75° C, as required by process conditions. Use a minimum of 14 AWG wire for power and ground field wires. On high temperature applications (above 250° F [121° C] at mounting flange or bushing), high temperature wire should be used between control and first junction box located in a cooler area. On non-hazardous applications, flexible conduit may be used between the control and the first junction box. Figure 4 Terminal Connections DPDT Switch Mechanism Series B, C, and D 5. The switch terminals are located next to the conduit outlet to facilitate wiring. Bring supply wires through conduit outlet. Route extra wire around enclosing tube under the baffle plate, and connect them to the proper terminals. Refer to the wiring diagram, Figure 4, or your switch bulletin for this information. 6 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 6. Dress wiring to ensure no interference or contact with the switch actuation arm, or replacement of switch housing cover. NOTE: Observe all applicable electrical codes and proper wiring procedures. Prevent moisture seepage into the enclosure by installing approved seal-drain fittings in the conduit run leading into the unit. Caution: In hazardous areas, do not power the unit until the conduit is sealed and the enclosure cover is screwed down securely. 7. Replace housing cover. 8. If control has been furnished with an explosion proof or moisture proof switch housing, it must be sealed at the conduit outlet with a suitable compound or non-hardening sealant to prevent entrance of air. 9. Test switch action by varying liquid level in the tank or vessel. The upper switch on Model T21 units is actuated by movement of the lower float, while the lower switch is actuated by the upper float. NOTE: If switch mechanism fails to function properly, check vertical alignment of control housing and consult installation bulletin on switch mechanism furnished. 10. Check cover to base fit to be certain gasketed joint is tight. A positive seal is necessary to prevent infiltration of moisture laden air or corrosive gasses into switch housing. 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 7 3.0 Switch Differential Adjustment The standard differential of the single float Model T20 may be field adjusted. Adjustment may be necessary if a wider differential needs to be set to overcome switch chatter caused by the process. The differential, or the amount of level travel between switch-on and switch-off, may be adjusted by repositioning the lower jam nuts on the float stem. The standard factory setting is for a minimum amount of play (gap) between the top jam nuts and the attraction sleeve as shown in Figure 6. NOTE: For assistance in computing level differential change for a specific control, consult the factory giving the model and serial numbers of the control. Caution: Maximum differential adjustment is 0.50 inch. NOTE: To widen the differential 0.50 inch, the lower jam nuts must be set proportionately lower on the stem (i.e., in this example 0.50 inch). Switch housing cover Conduit connection Enclosing tube nut Enclosing tube Refer to Figures 6 and 7 Housing base Caution: Before attempting any work on the control, pull disconnect switch, or otherwise assure that electrical circuit(s) through the control is deactivated. Close operating medium supply valve on controls equipped with pneumatic switch mechanisms. 1. 2. 3. 4. Float Figure 5 Determine what change in differential is necessary. Make sure power source is turned off. Unscrew and remove switch housing cover. Disconnect power supply wires from switch mechanism. Pull wires out of conduit connection opening in housing base. Refer to Figure 5. 5. Perform system shut-down procedures as required to relieve pressure from tank or vessel and drain off liquid head, if required. Allow unit to cool. NOTE: The amount of level travel between switch-on and switch-off actuation (differential) may be field adjusted by repositioning the lower jam nuts on the float stem. The standard factory setting is for a minimum amount of play (gap) between the top jam nuts and the attraction sleeve, as shown in Figure 6. This setting may be increased to a maximum of 0.50" (13 mm), as shown in Figure 7. 6. Remove switch housing assembly by loosening the enclosing tube nut, which is located immediately below housing base. Refer to Figure 5. 8 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 7. With switch housing and enclosing tube removed, jam nuts and attraction sleeve are accessible. Measure position of upper jam nuts from stem end; then loosen and remove upper jam nuts, guide washer, and attraction sleeve. 8. Loosen and adjust lower jam nuts to desired position. Make certain jam nuts are retightened securely. NOTE: Use new enclosing tube gasket in assembly of switch housing to the mounting bushing or flange. Refer to Sections 5.4.1.1 and 5.4.2.1 for enclosing tube gasket part numbers. 9. Test switch actuation by varying liquid level in tank or vessel. Caution: Instructions given are for standard base model units which use a single magnet switch mechanism only. No differential adjustment should be attempted on tandem float models in the field. Switch actuation levels have been set at the factory to meet specific customer specifications. Variations in actual conditions from design conditions usually requires special control modifications. Consult with the factory or local representative for assistance. Slight play (gap) must be allowed (.03" [.8 mm] typical) For access to bottom jam nuts, mark position, remove top jam nuts, Replace in washer, and attracting same position sleeve. Maximum gap setting (Applies to models having 0.50" a single switch mechanism (13 mm) with a single magnet actuator only) Position of bottom jam nuts (normal factory setting) Drop bottom jam nuts to increase gap setting (see instructions below) CAUTION: After increasing gap setting, be certain to check for proper operation of switch mechanism by raising and lowering float assembly. Magnet must snap cleanly, with additional float movement available after magnet snaps.

This control is a safety device to protect the valuable equipment it serves. Therefore, a systematic program of “preventive maintenance” must be implemented when the control is placed into service. If the following sections on “what to do” and “what to avoid” are observed, your control will provide reliable protection of your equipment for many years. 4.1 What to do 4.1.1 Keep control clean Be sure the switch housing cover is always in place on the control. This cover is designed to keep dust and dirt from interfering with switch mechanism operation. In addition, it protects against damaging moisture and acts as a safety feature by keeping bare wires and terminals from being exposed. Should the housing cover or any seals become damaged or misplaced, obtain a replacement immediately. 4.1.2 Inspect switch mechanisms, terminals, and connections monthly 1. Switches should be inspected for excessive wear on actuating lever or misalignment of adjustment screw at point of contact between screw and lever. Such wear can cause false switch actuating levels. See switch mechanism bulletin supplied with control should switch adjustment or replacement be necessary. 2. DO NOT operate your control with defective or maladjusted switch mechanisms (refer to bulletin on switch mechanisms furnished for service instructions.) 3. Level controls may sometimes be exposed to excessive heat or moisture. Under such conditions, insulation on electrical wiring may become brittle, eventually breaking or pealing away. The resulting “bare” wires can cause short circuits. NOTE: Check wiring carefully and replace at the first sign of brittle insulation. 4. Vibration may sometimes cause terminal screws to work loose. Check all terminal connections to be certain that screws are tight. 10 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 5. On units with pneumatic switches, air (or gas) lines subjected to vibration, may eventually crack or become loose at connections causing leakage. Check lines and connections carefully and repair or replace, if necessary. NOTE: As a matter of good practice, spare switches should be kept on hand at all times. 4.1.3 Inspect entire unit periodically Isolate control from vessel. Raise and lower liquid level to check for switch contact and reset. 4.2 What to avoid 1. Never leave switch housing cover off the control longer than necessary to make routine inspections. 2. Never place a jumper wire across terminals to “cut-out” the control. If a “jumper” is necessary for test purposes, be certain it is removed before placing control into service. 3. Never attempt to make adjustments or replace switches without reading instructions carefully. Certain adjustments provided for in level controls should not be attempted in the field. When in doubt, consult the factory or your local representative. 4. Never use lubricants on pivots of switch mechanisms. A sufficient amount of lubricant has been applied at the factory to ensure a lifetime of service. Further oiling is unnecessary and will only tend to attract dust and dirt which can interfere with mechanism operation. 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 11 5.0 5.1 Reference Information Troubleshooting Usually the first indication of improper operation is failure of the controlled equipment to function, (i.e.: pump will not start (or stop), signal lamps fail to light, etc.) When these symptoms occur, whether at time of installation or during routine service thereafter, check the following potential external causes first. a. Fuses may be blown. b. Reset button(s) may need resetting. c. Power switch may be open. d. Controlled equipment may be faulty. e. Wiring leading to control may be defective. If a thorough inspection of these possible conditions fails to locate the trouble, proceed next to a check of the control's switch mechanism. 5.1.1 Check switch mechanism 1. Pull disconnect switch or otherwise disconnect power to the control. 2. Remove switch housing cover. 3. Disconnect power wiring from switch assembly. 4. Swing magnet assembly in and out by hand to check carefully for any sign of binding. Assembly should require minimal force to move it through its full swing. 5. If binding exists, magnet may be rubbing enclosing tube. If magnet is rubbing, loosen magnet clamp screw and shift magnet position. Retighten magnet clamp screw. 6. If switch magnet assembly swings freely and mechanism still fails to actuate, check installation of control to be certain it is within the specified three degrees of vertical. (Use spirit level on side of enclosing tube in two places, 90° apart. 7. Check the continuity of the microswitch with ohmmeter. Replace immediately if found defective. 8. If switch mechanism is operating satisfactorily, proceed to check sensing unit. 12 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 5.1.2 Check complete unit 1. Reconnect power supply and carefully actuate switch mechanism manually (using a non-conductive tool) to determine whether controlled equipment will operate. Caution: With electrical power on, care should be taken to avoid contact with switch leads and connections at terminal block. 2. If controlled equipment responds to manual actuation test, trouble may be located in the level sensing portion of the control–float(s), stem(s), and magnetic attraction sleeve(s). NOTE: Ensure that liquid is entering the storage tank or vessel. A valve may be closed or a pipe line plugged. Caution: Be certain to pull disconnect switch or otherwise ensure that electrical circuit(s) through control is deactivated. Close operating medium supply valve on controls equipped with pneumatic switch mechanisms. 3. With liquid in tank or vessel, raise the liquid level above the set points. Magnets should “pull-in” on rising level. On Model T21 the lower float actuates the upper switch, and the upper float actuates the lower switch. If magnets fail to “pull-in”, lower the level and purge pressure. a. Disconnect wiring from supply side of switch mechanism(s) and remove electrical conduit or operating medium line connections to switch housing. b. Remove switch housing assembly by loosening hex nut, which is located immediately below housing base. 4. With switch housing assembly removed, inspect attraction sleeve(s) and inside of enclosing tube for excessive corrosion or solids buildup, which could restrict movement, preventing sleeve(s) from reaching field of switch magnet(s). 5. If differential has been changed in the field by repositioning the lower jam nuts on the float stem, check tightness and position of the jam nuts. Refer to Figure 6. NOTE: Differential adjustment affects a change in the amount of level travel between switch-on and switch-off actuation. Do not attempt adjustment without first consulting factory for assistance in computing level differential change for your control. 44-604 Top Mounting Liquid Level Switches 13 6. Check float to be certain it is buoyant in the liquid (tank or vessel must have adequate liquid level). If float is determined to be filled with liquid, or it is collapsed, it must be replaced immediately. Do not attempt to repair a float. If all components in the control are in operating condition, the trouble must be (and should be) located external to the control. Repeat inspection of external conditions previously described. When communicating about your control, be certain to always specify the complete Model and Serial numbers. 5.2 AGENCY Agency Approvals MODEL APPROVED APPROVAL CLASSES FM All with an electric switch mechanism and a housing listed as TYPE 4X/7/9 All with an electric switch mechanism and a housing listed as TYPE 4X/7/9 Class I, Div 1, Group B Class I, Div 1, Groups C & D Class II, Div 1, Groups E, F & G Class I, Div 1, Groups B, C & D Class II, Div 1, Groups E, F & G Class I, Div 2, Groups B, C & D Class I, Div 1, Groups C & D Class II, Div 1, Groups E, F & G Class I, Div 1, Groups B, C & D Class II, Div 1, Groups E, F & G ATEX II 2 G EEx d IIC T6 94/9/EC IEC Ex Ex d IIC T6 IP 66 Installation Category II Pollution Degree 2 CSA All with a Series F, HS, H1, 8 or 9 electric switch mechanism and a housing listed as CSA TYPE 4X All with an electric switch mechanism and a housing listed as TYPE 4X/7/9 All with an electric switch mechanism and a housing listed as TYPE 4X/7/9 Class I, Div 1, Group B All with an electric switch mechanism and an ATEX housing Œ ATEX / IEC Ex  CE Low Voltage Directives 2006/95/EC Per Harmonized Standard: EN 61010-1/1993 & Amendment No. 1 Œ Dual stage units with ‘HS’ switches are not ATEX approved.  IEC Installation Instructions: The cable entry and closing devices shall be Ex d certified suitable for the conditions of use and correctly installed.

They will be rebuilt or replaced promptly. Controls returned under our service policy must be returned by Prepaid transportation. Magnetrol will repair or replace the control at no cost to the purchaser (or owner) other than transportation if: 1. Returned within the warranty period; and 2. The factory inspection finds the cause of the claim to be covered under the warranty. If the trouble is the result of conditions beyond our control; or, is NOT covered by the warranty, there will be charges for labor and the parts required to rebuild or replace the equipment. In some cases it may be expedient to ship replacement parts; or, in extreme cases a complete new control, to replace the original equipment before it is returned. If this is desired, notify the factory of both the model and serial numbers of the control to be replaced. In such cases, credit for the materials returned will be determined on the basis of the applicability of our warranty. No claims for misapplication, labor, direct or consequential damage will be allowed. Return Material Procedure So that we may efficiently process any materials that are returned, it is essential that a “Return Material Authorization” (RMA) number be obtained from the factory, prior to the material's return. This is available through Magnetrol’s local representative or by contacting the factory. Please supply the following information: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Company Name Description of Material Serial Number Reason for Return Application Any unit that was used in a process must be properly cleaned in accordance with OSHA standards, before it is returned to the factory. A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) must accompany material that was used in any media. All shipments returned to the factory must be by prepaid transportation. All replacements will be shipped F.O.B. factory. 5300 Belmont Road • Downers Grove, Illinois 60515-4499 • 630-969-4000 • Fax 630-969-9489 • www.magnetrol.com 145 Jardin Drive, Units 1 & 2 • Concord, Ontario Canada L4K 1X7 • 905-738-9600 • Fax 905-738-1306 Heikensstraat 6 • B 9240 Zele, Belgium • 052 45.11.11 • Fax 052 45.09.93 Regent Business Ctr., Jubilee Rd. • Burgess Hill, Sussex RH15 9TL U.K. • 01444-871313 • Fax 01444-871317 Copyright © 2010 Magnetrol International, Incorporated.
