Page 4: Characteristics
Characteristics The TORRIX ... XTS ... is a high-precision level sensor from the TORRIX series with an addi- tional display (XTS) for showing up to 3 different TORRIX measured values on the sensor head. The sensor has been developed for continuous level measurement of liquid media in con- tainers. -

Page 6: Safety Instructions
REACH Regulation The TORRIX sensors contain a lead-titanium-zirconium-oxide, which belongs to the substances of very high concern (SVHC) according to Regulation (EG) No. 1907/2006 (REACH). A corresponding note can be found on our website at: www.fafnir.com. Page 3/47 Safety Instructions... -
Page 7: Design And Function
Design and Function The level sensors consist of a probe head (1) and a probe tube (4) made of stainless steel. The probe tube is height-adjustable with a screw-in body (3) or mounted with a flange in the tank or outside the tank as a bypass. A float (5) for measuring the product filling level and another float (6) for continuous interface measurement move on the probe tube. -

Page 11: Installation
Installation This section describes how to install the level sensor depending on the type of the device (see the following figures). When installing and maintaining the level sensor in potentially explosive areas, the national rules must be observed (Explosion Protection Regulations, Indus- trial Health and Safety Regulations, Equipment Safety Regulations and specific conditions of the EU-Type Examination Certificates). -
Page 12: Installation With Screw-In Unit
Installation with screw-in unit Insert the level sensor into the tank (see following figure): Loosen both set screws, remove circlip (1) and float (2) from probe tube (3). Figure 5: Installation with screw-in unit Removing the float is required only if it does not fit through the installation opening in the tank. -
Page 13: Installation With Flange
Installation with flange The probe tube is firmly welded to the flange, so the installation length cannot be changed. Fasten flange and seal with the flange bolts and nuts. The screws or nuts and the seals are the responsibility of the operating company and must be chosen depending on the fluid. The fasteners and seals must comply with the requirements of the standards EN 1092-1, EN 1514 and EN 1515. -

Page 17: Maximum Length Of The Connection Cable
Maximum Length of the Connection Cable The permissible total resistance of the cable and the load (see chapter 5.1.1) must not be exceeded. The cable (length and cross-section) must be chosen so that the supply voltage will not fall below the sensor-specific minimum voltage (12 V) in the case of the highest current consumption (21.5 mA). -
Page 18: Wiring
Wiring The TORRIX XTS level sensors may only be wired with the power disconnected. The terminal compartment is accessible after removing the rear screw cover from the probe head. To do this, screw the locking screw of the cover into the housing with a 3 mm Allen key. After the wiring has been completed, the cover must be screwed on again and secured against unintentional loosening. -
