    MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE CONDITIONS PiloTREK units do not require maintenance on a regular basis. Repair during or after the guarantee period should only be carried out by NIVELCO. Before returning the device for repairs, it must be cleaned carefully, the parts in contact with the medium that might contain harmful substances must be decontaminated.

  • Page 20: Installation

    4. INSTALLATION 4.1. M OUNTING When choosing the installation place please ensure proper space for later calibrations, verification or maintenance service. PLACEMENT The ideal position for the PiloTREK is on their = (0.3…0.5) R (in case of cylindrical tank). It is highly recommended to consider the beam cone on the 2 page drawing.
  • Page 21 SENSOR ALIGNMENT TEMPERATURE The antenna face should be parallel to the medium surface avoid overheating within 2°…3°. instrument should be protected Roof sunshade against direct sunshine. OBSTACLES POLARIZATION PLANE Prior to the installation make sure that no objects (cooling pipes, The emitted radar impulses of PiloTREK are bracing elements, thermometers, etc.) cross the microwave electromagnetic waves.

  • Page 22: Wiring

    NIVELCO also recommends leading the connecting cables downwards to lead aside the rain water and the condensed water. This is needed in case of outside installations and some special applications where there is very high humidity or the possibility of water condensation is quite high (for example in cleaning, purification processes, in cooled and / or heated tanks).

    CREEN The SAP–300 is a 64x128 dot-matrix LCD display which can be plugged into the transmitter. (It is universal – usable in other NIVELCO devices as well – provided that the system software supports SAP–300.) Warning! The SAP–300 module is based on LCD technology, so please make sure it is not exposed to permanent heat or direct sunlight, in order to avoid damage of the display unit.
