Intended use The idOil-LIQ sensror is intended to be used as liquid high level alarm in oil and sand separators. The sensor can be placed in a zone 0 explosive atmosphere, but the control unit connected with have to be placed in a safe area.
Installation and Operating Instructions | idOil-LIQ 5/18 Keep the original package. Always store and transport the device in the original packaging. Store the device in a clean and dry space. Observe the permitted storage temperatures. If the storage temperatures have not been presented separately, the products must be stored in conditions that are within the operating temperature range.
Product description Device operation The idOil-LIQ sensor can be connected to Labkotec Oy analog (SET-1000 and SET-2000 - product family) or digital (idOil-product family) control units. The sensor issues an alarm signal when the liquid level in the separator reaches the sensor in overflow situation.

Installation and Operating Instructions | idOil-LIQ 8/18 Connections idOil sensor connected to idOil control unit Kuva 5 . Connecting idOil sensor(s) to idOil control units Safe area Hazardous area The sensor connection is polarity free digital bus connection so the sensor can be connected to any of the sensor connectors (sensor 1, sensor 2 or sensor 3).
SET control unit The sensor of the idOil product family can be connected to the control unit of Labkotec Oy's SET product family in place of the SET sensor. The difference is that the cable in the idOil series sensors has no shielding and the polarity of the conductors does not matter because the sensor connection is polarity-free.

You should also check the operation every time the separator is emptied or at least once every six months. idOil-LIQ sensor functional test with idOil control unit Functional test: The sensor is in the air. The control unit should be in normal mode; indicator lights are off (idOil-20) and there are no alarm notifications on the screen (idOil-30 and idOil- D30), the relays are energised and the buzzer is silent.
Installation and Operating Instructions | idOil-LIQ 13/18 Maintenance The sensor should be cleaned every time the separator is emptied and at least once every six months during mantenance inspection. For cleaning the sensor you can use e.g. dishwashing detergent and brush.
