    NIVOTRACK M–500 / 600 units do not require maintenance on a regular basis. Repair during or after the guarantee period should only be carried out by NIVELCO. Devices for repair should be returned fully cleaned, and disinfected. Unused devices must be stored within the ambient temperature range specified in the technical data, and a maximum of 98% relative humidity.
  • Page 18: Installation

    These effects can be attenuated in applications with rigid tube probes by the use of stilling pipe along the whole probe. Please consult with a NIVELCO distributor! To ensure consistent and durable operation the measurement medium should be free of suspended solid materials, which could stick between the float •...
  • Page 19: Wiring

    TTENTION In order to avoid damaging the probe, do not put it to torsion when installing or removing the unit. Therefore, special care has to be taken when the process connection is being screwed into or out of the flange. The best is to hold the rigid part of the probe with a suitable tool as long as the process connection is tightened to its place.

    If the transmitter is left in Programming Mode by mistake, it will automatically return to Measurement Mode after 30 minutes and modifications will be unsaved. FACTORY SETTINGS The NIVOTRACK M-500 / 600 type transmitters will be delivered with the following Factory default values: ⇒ Measurement mode: level (LEV). Displayed value shows level.

    5.2. P –300 ROGRAMMING WITH THE SAP DISPLAY UNIT When entering the menu the instrument makes a copy of the actual parameters, all changes are done to this duplicated parameter set. During programming the instrument keeps measuring and transmitting with the current (and intact) parameter set. After exiting the menu the instrument replaces the original parameters with the new parameter set and will measure according the new parameters.

In level measurement mode the zero level is meant at the lowest position of the float. Due to the construction of the device, it cannot able to measure the level through the whole height of the tank, because it may not reach the bottom of the tank.
