    GENERAL SAFETY AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL All instructions described in the document must be performed by authorized and qualified service personnel only. Before installing the unit, please read these instructions and familiarize yourself with the requirements and functions of the device. The required personal protective equipment must always be worn when servicing this device.
  • Page 7: Product Description

    III. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FUNCTION The LP II Series units are electronic, vibratory level controls designed for use in powders and granular solids. A ® vibrating “tuning fork” is used to sense the presence of material. The tuning fork contains two piezoelectric crystal assemblies: one “transmit” and one “receive”. The Piezo crystals convert electrical signals to mechanical movement, and vice versa.

    MECHANICAL INSTALLATION WARNING: VERY HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT ON THE FORK TERMINALS. REMOVE POWER FROM THE UNIT BEFORE INSTALLING, REMOVING, OR MAKING ADJUSTMENTS GUIDELINES The following precautions should be observed when installing and operating an LP II device: •...
  • Page 10 CAUTION: THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE DOWNWARD FORCE ON THE FORKS IS 88 LBS (40 KG). To calculate the maximum solids head height above a horizontally mounted fork, use the following equation: Maximum height of material (ft) = 2200 / bulk density (lbs/ft Do not mount the fork directly in the flow of material.

    ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION WARNING: VERY HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT. REMOVE POWER FROM THE UNIT BEFORE INSTALLING, REMOVING, OR MAKING ADJUSTMENTS GENERAL SAFETY When using electrical equipment, you should always follow basic safety precautions, including the following: • The installation and wiring of this product must comply with all national, federal, state, municipal, and local codes that apply.
  • Page 12: Electrical Connections

    ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Note: The LP II can be operated from 120-240 VAC 50/60 Hz or 24-48 VDC and provides reverse polarity protection in the event of a wiring error. LP II SERIES INTEGRAL MODEL ONLY Input Power Connections 1. Refer to Figures 4 or 5 and 6 when connecting input power to the unit.

  • Page 18: Set-Up

    SET-UP WARNING: VERY HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT ON THE FORK TERMINALS. REMOVE POWER FROM THE UNIT BEFORE INSTALLING, REMOVING, OR MAKING ADJUSTMENTS OPERATION The LP II does not require calibration. When power is applied to the unit, the tines of the fork will begin vibrating (if the fork is not impeded by contact with material or some other object).
  • Page 19: Fail-Safe Selection

    FAIL-SAFE SELECTION The LP II is factory set for high level fail-safe operation. The Fail-Safe is controlled by SW1, position 5. Refer to Figure 14 to determine the Fail-Safe mode that suits your application. Figure 14. Fail-Safe Operation HIGH LEVEL FAIL-SAFE OPERATION (DEFAULT) HIGHÊLEVELÊFAIL-SAFE...
  • Page 20: Time Delay Settings - Standard

    TIME DELAY SETTINGS - STANDARD This setting will delay the time between when the LP II senses material and the main relay changes state. The delay is only in this direction, regardless of fail-safe setting. There is no added delay when the material leaves the fork.
  • Page 21: Sensitivity Settings - Standard

    SENSITIVITY SETTINGS - STANDARD There are four different sensitivity ranges on the LP II that can be selected using SW1 Position 1 and 2. The unit is factory set for the lowest sensitivity. The table below is for illustration purposes, of a vertically mounted unit only, and results will vary depending on material properties and conditions.
  • Page 22: Test - Advanced Only

    TEST - ADVANCED ONLY The LP II provides a means for self-test using the magnetic FOB provided with the unit. When the unit is not in material (forks vibrating) place and hold the FOB over the “TEST” label on the cover. If the unit is functioning properly, the alarm LED and main relay will change the state as shown below.
