User Manual Rev: 2.1 INSTALLATION NOTE: If any damage to the instrument is found, please notify an Arjay Engineering representative as soon as possible prior to installation. Controller Installation Choose the mounting location in accordance with good instrument practice. Extremes of ambient temperature and vibration should be avoided (see specifications and installation drawing).
Model: 2852-LS User Manual Rev: 2.1 Probe Installation The probe length is custom ordered to the tank or vessel requirements. On vertical and angled installations, the probe must be long enough to reach the lowest alarm setpoint. The PMC junction box should be mounted above any risk of flooding.
Model: 2852-LS User Manual Rev: 2.1 THREADED ENTRY FLANGED ENTRY CONCENTRIC SHIELD ENTRY Use wrench on Lower Hex ONLY 2" Entry Typical 1- For threaded and flanged entry types, the probe must be parallel to the tank wall 2- For threaded and flanged entry types, measurement sensitivity is increased by reducing the probe to wall distance.
The unit is pre-configured and tested at the factory. However, a quick field calibration is required after power up to tune the probe to the installation conditions. See section 3.3 to calibrate the 2852-LS . Menu Flow Chart Background Information The control setup, diagnostics, and calibration are accessed using the display and keypad on the controller.
Model: 2852-LS User Manual Rev: 2.1 Change is password protected and allows an operator to enter or change the configuration set- up values indicated in the View. Changes will be required for the initial setup of relay setpoints, delays, span etc. or to re-set the values to the factory default.
