Fig. 1: Overview measuring point 2. Function The ProGap 2.0 is a non-contact microwave barrier. The sensor can be used on metallic and non-metallic pipes, tanks, manholes, bellows, etc. The microwave measure through non-conductive materials, such as plastics, glass, etc. This makes it possible to detect with the sensor from the outside or through a window.
3. Safety The ProGap 2.0 measuring system has a state of the art, reliable design. It was tested and found to be in a perfectly safe condition when leaving the factory. Nevertheless, the system components may present dangers to personnel and items if they are not operated correctly.
4. Mounting and installation 4.1 A measuring point consists of the following components: 1 x Transmitter unit • 1 x Receiver unit • 2 x lock nut for locking transmitter and receiver unit • 2 x G-1½”-socket for mounting the unit •...
5. Electrical connection The cable length between power supply and transmitter / receiver system is a maximum of 200 m. A double insulated shielded cable with a minimum cross section of 0.75 mm² is recommended. From a cable length of 100 m, the cable cross-section must be increased to 1 mm². The transmitter / receiver system has an EMV cable gland.
6. Start-up procedure Before the ProGap 2.0 measuring point can be put into operation, the electrical connection should be checked. After the power supply has been switched on, a warm-up time of 5 minutes must be observed. All operating elements required for commissioning are located in the receiver.
Adjusting of the switch response time potentiometer P2 Adjust the switch response time with the potentiometer P2 according to your requirement between the range of 0.25 and 5 seconds. By turning P2 to left stop, the delay will be 0.25 seconds. At right stop the delay time will be 5 seconds.
