  • Page 11: Calibration

    2020 Rev.2 4. CALIBRATION PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE CALIBRATION PROCEDURE BEFORE CALIBRATING THE LS7500. If no time delay is required, turn the time adjustment pot completely CCW and set S1 down, S2 up. The potentiometer has 18 turns and freewheels at the end of its travel without damage. You may hear “clicks” at the end of travel.
  • Page 12: Sensitivity Calibration

    2020 Rev.2 C. Sensitivity Calibration The LS7500 should be calibrated when no material is touching the sensing element and when the unit is installed where it will be used. NOTE: Dirty pipe calibration – DO NOT CLEAN SENSING ELEMENT – simply follow the same procedure below with the buildup in place.
  • Page 13: Maintenance And Troubleshooting

    No routine maintenance is required other than keeping the interior of the unit clean and free of dirt, dust and other contaminants. The LS7500 consists of three main sub-assemblies. These are the enclosure with the flange assembly, the power supply board and the sensing card. The following troubleshooting guide will assist in determining how to correct most of the problems which may occur in the field.
  • Page 14: Warranty
