Page 3: Introduction
Its rugged construction allows it to withstand the rigors of just about any industrial environ- ment. The Resonator switch is available in two different models: (1) RS80 - base model or (2) RS85 - multi-options model. -
Page 4: Sample Applications
The Resonator™ (RS85 only) is also available with Teflon coatings or alloy wetted parts for use in corrosive fluid and sticky applications.

Page 5: Installation
Switchpoints on the sensor depend on the mounting position. Because the Resonator requires no calibration, the switchpoint is determined by the position of the tuning fork. Note: When used in extremely light liquids (liquefied gas), select the low density Setpoint adjustment.

A Resonator with an extended probe length over 20 inches (up to 120”) must be mounted vertically. RS80-0200-1 Rev d (10-2010) DCN0533...
- Page 7 Note: To avoid blockage of the flowing material, ensure narrow edge of forks is parallel with pipe walls. To maintain optimum performance in flow or no flow applica- tions, the liquids should have low viscosities and low flow veloci- ties. Empty Pipe Detection RS80-0200-1 Rev d (10-2010) DCN0533...

Due to the extremely wide range of control and/or alarm applications in which the unit may be used, it is not possible to show all conceivable wiring diagrams. Consult your representative or K-TEK factory if further assistance is needed. 2.3 Caution... -
Page 9: Setup
On RS80 Forks, install and power up the unit with no liquid touching the fork. Place a magnet on the X of the label on the housing or press S1 and S2 buttons of the electronics module and hold while a sequence of red and green lights display ending with a single green light. -
Page 10: Density - Setpoint Adjustment - High (Rs80 Only)
3.2 Density - Setpoint Adjustment - High (RS80 only) The default density setting of the RS80 is High. This means that the switch is set to detect fluids with a specific grav- ity of 0.8 and above. The Resonator can be configured to change the default settings externally with a magnet or internally with the pushbuttons inside the enclosure. -
Page 11: Density - Setpoint Adjustment - Low (Rs80 Only)
3.3 Density - Setpoint Adjustment - Low (RS80 only) The Resonator can be configured to change the default settings externally with a magnet or internally with the pushbuttons inside the enclosure. To set the switch for detecting fluids with a specific gravity of 0.8 and below follow the steps below. -
Page 12: Fail Safe / Relay Operation (Rs80/Rs85)
3.4 Fail Safe / Relay Operation (RS80 and RS85) A fail safe relay operation is used to let the user know that the switch has power. This means the relays will be ener- gized when the level is below the switch (dry fork) and de-energized when the level is above the switch (wet fork). -

Page 14: Appendix A (Rs85 Only Setup)
5.1 Density Adjustment - Precise Density Setpoint Adjustment (RS85 only) While the RS80 (base model) should be able to handle 80% of all liquid level applications, there are cases when the process requires more flexibility due to extreme buildup, turbulence, high viscosity or sticky process products. These applications require the use of the RS85 (multi-options). - Page 15 Table 6 - Setpoint Adjustment While Wet OPERATION LED 1 LED 2 Normal GREEN OR RED X for over 6 seconds GREEN GREEN or RED Figure 14 Figure 13 Figure 15 Figure 16 RS80-0200-1 Rev d (10-2010) DCN0533...
