Nozzle Installation Guide Centurion Guided Radar Min 100mm Connection Requirements - Metallic Vessels The unit requires a metallic flange or sheet connected to the unit thread. • Avoid mounting adjacent to internal structures • Probes should not contact metallic container walls or floors. Metal flange Metal flange Nozzle...
Mounting Centurion Guided Radar Minimum Clearance Typically high dielectric materials (such as liquids) provide a good return signal. Low dielectric materials (such as plastics and powders) require higher levels of sensitivity to measure. Failure to adhere to mounting requirements can create a false signal reflection which will exhibit as high level lock- ups either from the distance of the interference of a multiple of the distance of the interference.
Forces On The Probe Centurion Guided Radar Forces on the probe Tensile forces are heavily dependent on the viscosity and abrasive characteristics of the product in the vessel. Ensure tensile loading is appropriate for the selected cable (8mm or 4mm) as well as the silo cover and mounting structure.
Powering The Unit For The First Time Centurion Guided Radar A. Confirm mounting is within recommended specifications. B. Check the selected unit matches the required application specifications. For Hazardous Locations see appropriate safety instructions available at http://www.hawkmeasure.com C. Check the wiring is correct and all connections are secure. D.

Troubleshooting - via Controller Keypad Centurion Guided Radar 2-2. Reduce Sensitivity: • Enter the ‘Adv Setup’ menu and scroll until you see ‘Sensitivity’ parameter. • Press CAL to edit. Use the DOWN arrow to reduce this value. • Pressing CAL will fire a test pulse and return the diagnostic data of the Signal size and E: distance. Fire several test pulses for a good sample size.
Troubleshooting - via Controller Keypad Centurion Guided Radar Unit is reading deeper than actual level This may occur in low dielectric applications where the cable weight returns a stronger echo than the measured material. If you have used any other parameters such as ‘Cal Mount’ perform a Probe Reset. Increase Sensitivity: •...
