Report any discrepancies to the factory. Check and record the serial number for future reference when ordering parts. Serial Number Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Handling Procedure Magnetrol electronic instruments are manufactured to ® the highest quality standards. These instruments utilize electronic components which may be damaged by static electricity present in most work environments.

Wiring The wiring connections for the power and relay are suitable for 12–24 AWG wire. Caution: OBSERVE ALL APPLICABLE ELECTRICAL CODES AND PROPER WIRING PROCEDURES. 1. Make sure the power source is turned off. 2. Unscrew and remove housing cover. 3.
2.4.1 Relay Connections TD1/TD2: DPDT 8 amp at 120–250 VAC 8 amp at 28.8 VDC, 0.5 amp at 125 VDC resistive The TD1 transmitter shall be connected to a safety extra low-voltage circuit (SELV) with a Um 28.8 V. TD2 with Hermetically sealed relay: DPDT 1 amp at 28 VDC, 0.2 amp at 125 VDC resistive The switch may be configured so that the relay either energizes or de-energizes when the set point is reached.
1 through 6. The cable shield should be connected to the TD2 Electronics green ground screw in the sensor housing. If the cable is supplied by MAGNETROL, then this connection is pre-wired at the circuit board. The user only needs to connect the wiring at the terminal connection on the sensor enclosure.
FAULT switch position of the TD2 is shown in Figure 10. ALARM The switch settings are set at MAGNETROL during setup. Changes in the positions may be required in the MODEL TD1 field depending upon the application. There is a tag wired Figure 9 onto the switch which indicates the default settings.
2.5.2 LED Operation TD1 – Two LEDs (Green & Red) • Green LED glows when power is on. • Red LED, glows when an alarm condition exists. The LED operation is independent of relay operation. • The red LED will blink rapidly if the switch detects a fault. It will blink slowly during initial power-on.
Calibrating the switch in a different media may change the set point. If the device was factory calibrated by MAGNETROL, then there is no need to perform an additional calibration. NOTE: Set the switches (Section 2.5.1) to the desired position before performing the calibration.

2.6.3 Adjustment Procedure – HIGH FLOW Detection 1. Place Fail-safe in the “HL” position ( 2. Increase the flow rate to desired alarm point. Allow 3 minutes for the sensor to stabilize. 3. Rotate alarm potentiometer counterclockwise until the red LED turns on.
Zone 0 service. 3.0 Reference Information Description THERMATEL TD1/TD2 switches are used for flow, level, and interface detection and control. Level detection is accomplished by sensing changes in the heat transfer char- acteristics of the media. Flow detection is accomplished by sensing changes in heat transfer caused by the flowing media.
Each element of the sensor is a miniature RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector). One element measures the tem- perature of the process, providing a reference temperature. The second RTD is self-heated to establish a temperature differential above the reference temperature. The cooling effect on the heated RTD, caused by the presence of flow or level, decreases the differential temperature between the two RTDs.
Troubleshooting The TD1/TD2 switches have various settings to handle a wide variety of flow and level applications. If the switch is not performing properly, check the switch settings on page 9 or the following: Symptom Application Action Unable to adjust set point Air Flow Detection Ensure that the probe is extended into the flow to obtain alarm...
Maintenance 3.6.1 Cleaning The probe may be cleaned by soaking, spraying solvents or detergent and water onto the sensor tubes, or by ultrasonic cleaning. Lime deposits may be safely removed by soaking in 20% hydrochloric acid. Warming to +150 °F (+66 °C) is permissible to speed this process.
