Rosemount 2521 with the standard length fork C. Optional sliding sleeve D. Solids in water Measurement principles Using the principle of a tuning fork, a piezo-electric crystal oscillates the forks at their natural frequency.
  • Page 8 Quick Start Guide October 2019 When the solids medium in the vessel (silo) rises and covers the fork, it causes a change of oscillation frequency that is detected by the electronics and the output switches to indicate a 'covered' state. The electrical output will vary depending on the electronics selected when the Rosemount 2521 was ordered.

    Ensure that the process connection is tightened by the correct amount of torque and sealed to prevent process leaks. 4. Technical data a. The Rosemount 2521 Product Data Sheet has all the technical specifications. See Emerson.com/Rosemount for other language versions. Quick Start Guide...
  • Page 10 Quick Start Guide October 2019 2.1.2 Solids in Water The detection of solids in water is supported by the Rosemount 2521S only. An installation example can be seen in Figure 1-2. 2.1.3 Mechanical load The load at the mounting point must not exceed 300 Nm (Rosemount 2521 with an extended length fork).
  • Page 11 October 2019 Quick Start Guide 2.1.5 Mounting location Take time to assess a suitable mounting location. Avoid mounting the level switch near the filling point, internal structures, and walls of a silo (or other vessel). When mounting the extended length versions of the level switch, it is especially important to consider internal structures.

    Quick Start Guide October 2019 Configuration Adjustment of the signal output FSH signal output When the level switch is used to indicate full-silo, set to Fail Safe High. A power failure or line break is regarded as full-silo signal (as protection against overfilling).
  • Page 19 October 2019 Quick Start Guide Sensitivity The level switch is factory-set to high sensitivity (switch position B) and normally does not need to be changed. However, if the bulk solids material has a frequent tendency to cake or deposit, the setting switch can be set to position A to decrease the sensitivity of the probe .
