Page 3: I Disclaimer
HyQuest Solutions has been advised of the possibility of such damages. © 2020 HyQuest Solutions, a KISTERS Group Company.
Page 4: Safety Instructions
Before starting to work, you have to check the functioning and integrity of the system. § Check for visible defects on the HS40C, this may or may not include any or all of the following mounting facilities, connectors and connections, mechanical parts, internal or external communication devices, power supplies or power supply lines, etc.
Page 5: Part I Introduction
A yearly check of the internal filter element is recommended, however up to three years before replacement is possible depending on site conditions. (Low cost replacement elements can be purchased from HyQuest Solutions when required.) §...
Page 6: Product Overview
The Model HS40 Compact is designed to replace conventional Dry Nitrogen bubbler systems for water level measurement. The standard unit operates up to 40 m (130 ft) head of water (and up to 50 m (160 ft) upon request). The system is low maintenance and has a low average power consumption. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...

) there is a 0.18 V drop on each conductor when the compressor draws 30 A (worst case for the previous blue ARB pump). Since there is a positive and negative wire, the voltage seen by the HS40 © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...

Page 10: Adjusting The Bubble Rate
26 Bubbles Per Minute For medium rising streams Factory Set Rate (Recommended for BU07) Maximum do not exceed 45 Bubbles Per Minute Suitable for Fast rising streams EXCEEDING THE MAXIMUM BUBBLE RATE WILL CAUSE EXCESIVE WEAR TO COMPRESSOR PUMP © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 11: Wl3100 Connection
(Consult the WL3100 Manual for a detailed description of the WL3100 connection, operation and specific SDI-12 commands – available on the HyQuest Solutions website) If connecting to the 4-20mA interface, make sure that the data logger (or RTU) powers up the 4-20mA loop long enough for the WL3100 to recognise it, take a measurement and put the result back on to the 4-20mA loop.
Page 12: Part Iii Operation
Tank Pressurisation & Mist Separator Flushing When the tank pressure falls below 400kPa (58psi) [±20%], the Condor pressure switch will close, causing the controller to turn on the compressor and then pump the pressure back up to 750kPa (110psi) [±20%]. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 13: Battery Size
The battery voltage is monitored during all phases of operation. If the battery voltage falls below 10.0V then all compressor operation will stop immediately. The battery voltage must then rise above 12.0V before clearing the battery low condition and restarting the compressor. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 14 A pump up cycle will be aborted if a battery low condition occurs. This condition is most likely to occur when the compressor is on because it draws approximately 20A when operating – causing the battery voltage to drop. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 15: Part Iv Maintenance
(An optional system (HS40AFC/3100V) can be requested consisting of a stainless micro mist separator and a solenoid valve which automatically purges out moisture at the end of each pump up cycle.) © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 18: Part V Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting This fault finding guide should be used by the HS40 Compact user before they consult HyQuest Solutions to assist with specific problems. § Check battery voltage. HS40 Compact Not Powering Up § Check battery POWER and GROUND connections to the battery – make sure they are done up tightly and there is no corrosion.

Check the lay of the tubing in the trench to ensure that it is free of coils and kinks. Under no circumstances should the tube form hollows where moisture can be trapped within the tube. Lay the tubing into position in the equipment shelter as required. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 25: Appendix B Using Pressure To Measure Water Level
In the first example, the tube exhausts to atmosphere and hence the water manometer indicate zero pressure in the system because it is acted on by two equal pressures- the system pressure and the atmospheric pressure © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 26 As we are not seeking to measure atmospheric pressure, but liquid head, how is the principle applied? Simply by using two physical characteristics. 1. The tendency of the gas under pressure to “seek” a lower pressure. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 27 Figure 4 – depicts a water manometer connected to the system and it is recommended that – such an arrangement be set up in a workshop for staff training. Gas Purge Operational Characteristics In the foregoing, the discussion has been limited to static head conditions, whereas in practice, the levels in stream are constantly fluctuating. “Rising” Situations © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 28 III. Pressure connections and valves for connecting the tubing to the river and the instrument. With the overall provision that the unit must be “leak proof”, otherwise the true head will not be recorded. The configuration most widely used is shown in Fig 6. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 29 Hence the term dual line. The operation of Hyquest Solutions units is described in more details in diagrams 15 and 16 of “instruction Manual for Sherlock Pressure Sensing Units”.
Page 30 As the water rises, the system pressure increases to the equivalent of the head H minus the amount the water rises within the bulb. This amount x, is non-linear and therefore cannot be completely compensated for by simple calibration. Provided the head H does not fall below say 300 mm, error from this cause is minimal. © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 31: Appendix C Hs40 Compact-Do (Dual Orifice)
Note: Only one orifice can operate at a time. If the level of the second orifice exceeds the range of the transducer; the transducer level can be set again at the second orifice.

Page 32 Tighten the tube nut to the GCO1 fitting as shown in figure below Step 4: Place the GCO1 assembly onto the mounting pipe, adjust coupling so the GCO1 is horizontal to the water, and tighten the flexible coupling with GCO1 in position. Note: © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
Page 33 Appendices Ensure that the GCO1 is horizontally level as shown. Flexible coupling allows adjustment up to 30 degrees. GCO1 DIMENSIONS Dimension Metric (mm) Imperial (inch) 16.2 © 2022 HyQuest Solutions...
