Page 6: Intended Use
Oil Level Sensor KVF-104-PF Safety Intended use The oil level sensor KVF-104-PF (referred to as "sensor" in the following section) is a suspended sensor for monitoring oil layer thickness in oil/petrol separators. The KVF-104-PF must always be connected to an ATEX-approved, intrinsically safe warning device of type LAL-SRW (see product program). -
Page 7: Installation And Commissioning
Oil Level Sensor KVF-104-PF Safety Installation and Commissioning 1.6.1 Installation des Sensors The sensor may be installed in potentially explosive zone 0 in accordance with Directive 94/9/EC (ATEX). The sensor must not be installed in places with potentially aggressive vapors. -
Page 8: Operation
Oil Level Sensor KVF-104-PF Safety Operation 1.7.1 Caution - emulsions An oil/petrol separator is a device for separating oil from water. Situations may arise in which the oil can not be separated because an emulsion has formed. An emulsion is a relatively stable mixture of oil and water. Sensors can not detect oil if emulsions with a high water content have formed. -
Page 9: Product Specifications
Oil Level Sensor KVF-104-PF Product Specifications Product Specifications Function The sensor has an integrated electronic circuit which, via an oscillator circuit, emits a weak HF signal that changes depending on whether the sensor element is surrounded by water or by oil/air. The sensor is capable of distinguishing between air and water, and between water and oil, but not between air and oil. -
