Proteus Ecometer P Nstructions For Configuration And Installation

Instructions for configuration and installation
Ecometer P
Ultrasonic level indicator for fast measurements with external power supply
(09/2018)
Before installing the gauge on the tank
1. Please check the installation options based on Fig. 1: Can the gauge be installed on the tank? Is there a wire opening / corresponding holes?
2. If possible, view the videos on monitor and gauge coupling / synchronization and monitor configuration on
3. Prepare your tank for the following dimensions: max. fill level, max. volume, distance between max. fill level and the mounting position of the gauge corresponding to the offset
Attention!
•
Avoid using tank sleeves higher than 2cm (5cm for 2" diameter sleeves)
•
Maintain a safety distance of at least 15 cm between the gauge and the tank wall. (For example, a basketball must be able to fall undisturbed and not be distracted by
accessories, etc.)
•
The maximum measuring range of the gauge is 3 m between the gauge and the tank floor (0% bar)
• The maximum display volume is 19,999 litres

Important Information
The Proteus EcoMeter P supplies the gauge with 3VDC voltage. To activate the gauge, plug the power supply into the power socket. As a result, the gauge
sends a new measurement signal to the EcoMonitor every 15 seconds. This means that rapid level changes during filling or emptying can be reliably
detected.
The gauge does not necessarily have to be screwed in, as there are no mechanical forces, as long as the gauge looks directly at the surface of the liquid and
does not come into direct contact with it. Please also take into account the required safety distance of 15 cm from the wall (basketball analogy).

Ecometer P Applications
• Plastic tanks with alkalis and acids
•
Tanks with quick change of liquid level
Step 1 - Basic configuration of the EcoMonitor
The Ecometer monitor (radio display) is powered when it is used for the first time. The Ecometer monitor then automatically starts in the setup mode, so that the hours (Setup 1) flash.
Enter the desired values with the ▲/▼ keys and confirm your selection always with the ENTER key (if the entry is incorrect, press the ENTER key several times to return to the menu
Then press the SETUP key to end the configuration process. After a few seconds, the current volume should be calculated, provided there is a data connection with the sensor and
corresponding distance values are available.
After the first configuration, LRN appears on the monitor so that it is ready for pairing with the sensor.
After the first configuration you can enter the setup menu at any time (e.g. to change or optimize your configuration data) by holding down the SETUP button until the hours start
flashing. To exit the Setup menu, simply press the Setup button briefly.

item to be modified.)
Proceed similarly for the following menu items:
Setup 1: Time setting (hours)
Setup 2: Entering the hour / minute
Setup 3: Choose tank type A/B/C (see fig. 2)
Setup 4: Max. volume Hard tank in litres
Setup 5: Tank height in cm
Setup 6: Tank width in cm (only type B /C tanks)
Setup 7: Enter the offset (OFt) in cm. Distance between the max. level and the mounting position of
the gauge (the left and right tabs are the gauge reference point). This distance must be 15cm. The
maximum offset corresponds to the difference of 300 cm and the maximum level.
Setup 8: Entry of the volume of dead space on the ground (OLH) in cm (corresponds to the 0% bar that
can be corrected upwards to take into account a sump volume or similar).
Setup 9: Alarm on/off (levels above 90% and below 10% are detected as alarms. The display changes
and the red LED starts flashing and an alarm sounds regularly.
Setupp 10: CLR, press the ENTER button to delete the stored historical data from the Ecomonitor.
