This paper is destined for operating staff to get to know the construction, mode of functioning and servicing of the level monitoring device SAU M6. SAU M6 device is certificated. The certificate of conformance №03.009.0102. 1. PURPOSE 1.1. General information 1.1.1.
2. PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION Basic specifications of the SAU M6 device are given in the table 1. Table 1 Item Magnitude Operating supply voltage 220 VAC, frequency 50 Hz Operating voltage range +10%... 15% of operating supply voltage Power consumption 6 W max Number of level monitoring channels Level sensors supply voltage, not more than 10 VAC, frequency 50 Hz...
3. MODE OF FUNCTIONING AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE DEVICE 3.1. Mode of functioning 3.1.1. The functional diagram of SAU M6 device is given in the pic. 1. The device consists of three level monitoring channels. Each of them operates the same functions and consists of the following main items: –...

3.1.2. Conductive fluid probes are used in the device as the level sensors. Conductive fluid probes can be used for fluid level monitoring if the fluid is electroconductive. For example, acid and alkali solutions, molten metals, water and water salt solutions, milk, etc. The simplest construction conductive fluid probes are metal corrosion strong electrodes, sealed from each other.

The rest electrodes are signal. They should be placed at appropriate levels and be connected to signal inputs 1, 2, 3 of the device (contacts “Level 1”, “Level 2”, “Level 3” at the connection diagram, app. A). When the reservoir fills up electrodes connects with the fluid. On account of that current lines between common and appropriate signal input close in.

3.1.3. Level sensor’s signals entry to appropriate inputs and transforms to optimal for further processing electrical signals. 3.1.4. There are stepped commutators X2 (X3, X4) in every channel of the device. They are electroconductivity sensitivity regulating devices of level monitoring channels. So SAU M6 device can work with different fluid mediums.
