(flow, level & interface) via the Thermal Signal Bar Graph as well as Relay state, Timer functions and operating conditions via individual LEDs. The CLASSIC 800 may also be remotely controlled and/or monitored via RS-485 using the Kayden RCM (Remote Control & Monitoring) Software and the Serial Communication Adapter (SCA) and communication cable.
CLASSIC 800 Product Manual II. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION Kayden sensors incorporate two thin-film platinum Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) and a separate heater element. The Reference RTD senses the actual process condition (as temperature). Heat is applied to the Active RTD by the heater element which is controlled by the microprocessor.
Introduction CLASSIC 800 Product Manual III. THERMAL SIGNAL The CLASSIC 800 senses changes to the temperature differential as changes occur in the process. The “value” being sensed and displayed as the Thermal Signal is the rate of thermal dispersion. Assuming the added energy from the heater is a constant, the formula that determines the Thermal Signal has only two variables: The thermal conductivity of the process media, and The velocity of the process media past the sensor.

Figure 4. The length of this connection must be added to the pipe diameter when determining the insertion length for the sensor. The Kayden literature refers to this “insertion length” dimension as the “U” length, Figure 5.
Installation Guidelines CLASSIC 800 Product Manual For vertical pipe mounting, Telematic strongly recommends installing the switch/transmitter at a point of UPWARD process flow to ensure continued total immersion of the sensing tip. If there is no other option except to install the flow switch/transmitter in a vertical pipe with downward flow, the following information must be considered: •...
Installation Guidelines CLASSIC 800 Product Manual IV. INSTALLING THE SENSOR Having followed the installation guidelines in Section 2, “Installation Guidelines”, Subheadings I through III, you may now proceed with installation. CAUTION Use proper eye protection and any other safety equipment as required by your installation site. Check electrical power to ensure that all power has been disconnected and ‘locked out’.
Installation Guidelines CLASSIC 800 Product Manual V. ELECTRICAL General • Ensure all electrical installation is in accordance with all applicable local and national electrical code requirements. The CLASSIC 800 series standard configuration includes an explosion-proof enclosure. The CLASSIC 800 Series is FM approved, Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and Underwriters Laboratory (UL) standards and must be installed in accordance with these applicable codes and standards.

Setup & Operation CLASSIC 800 Product Manual GENERAL INFORMATION Warm-up At initial start-up or restart allow approximately 90 seconds for the heater element to warm-up and the switch/transmitter to stabilize before making any adjustments. Diagnostics As described in greater detail in Section 7 “Troubleshooting” an automatic diagnostic program runs continuously when power is connected.
Setup & Operation CLASSIC 800 Product Manual 1. View or Adjust Relay 1 & 2 Energized Mode Both relays on the CLASSIC 800 have Normally Open and Normally Closed contacts. The terms ‘Open’ and ‘Closed’ refer to the de-energized state of the relays. Normally Open or Normally Closed operation for Relay 1/ Relay 2 is determined by wiring the contacts accordingly (see Figures 11 &...
Setup & Operation CLASSIC 800 Product Manual Failsafe Relay Configurations The term “Fail-safe” refers to a method of wiring and programming control instrumentation commonly used in hazardous locations/applications. • In a “Fail-safe” application the CLASSIC 800 switch/transmitter is wired and programmed so that the output relay is energized in normal process operating condition.
Setup & Operation CLASSIC 800 Product Manual 2. View or Adjust the 4-20 mA Fault Mode Configuration The 4-20 mA output is used to monitor the analog data from the sensor, such as a self-test fault. The 4-20 mA output can be programmed for a value of 3.0 mA or 21 mA. Note: For more general information on fault conditions, see Section 7 “Troubleshooting”.
Setup & Operation CLASSIC 800 Product Manual 3. View or Adjust Set Points 1 & 2 Notes: 1. Viewing either Set Point 1 or 2 from the Display Panel does not require entering the Manual Setup Mode. While still in RUN Mode, press and hold 1 or 2 to view the programmed Set Point. 2.
Setup & Operation CLASSIC 800 Product Manual 4. View or Adjust the Start-up Bypass Timer The Start-up Bypass Timer provides a means to energize both relays when the switch/transmitter is initially powered on. This feature provides a means to automatically restart a pump that has been turned off by the switch/transmitter without the need for additional hardware.
Setup & Operation CLASSIC 800 Product Manual 5. View or Adjust the Heater Power • The correct heater setting is determined primarily by the process media and secondarily by the velocity of the process. The heater setting is a key factor in determining the sensitivity and reaction time of the switch/transmitter.
