All operations described in this documentation must be carried out only by trained, qualified personnel authorized by the plant operator. Required personal protective equipment must always be worn when working on or with the device. 2.2 Appropriate use CNCR-110 is a sensor for continuous level measurement. Operational reliability is ensured only if the instrument is properly used according to the specifications in the operating instructions. AIRMATIC 3 of 20 airmatic.com |...

3.2 Principle of operation The CNCR is a radar sensor for continuous level measurement. It is suitable for liquids and sol- ids in practically all industries. The instrument emits a continuous, frequency-modulated radar signal from its antenna. The emitted signal is reflected by the material and received by the antenna as an echo with a modified frequency. The frequency change is proportional to the distance to the material. 3.3 Adjustment Devices with integrated Bluetooth module can be adjusted wirelessly via software adjustment tools: •...

4.3 Mounting instructions The radar emits pulses of electromagmetic waves which are polarized. By adjusting the rotation of the instrument the polarization can be changed to reduce false echoes. The narrow portion of the radar signal is in the middle of the printed label on the instrument. This should be pointed towards the center of the vessel or any obstacle that may cause and unwanted reflections to minimize false echos, for example, the sidewall or vessel structure.

When using a threaded coupling, the antenna end should protrude at least 5 mm (0.2 in) out of the coupling. If the reflective properties of the material are good, you can mount the CNCR-110 on sockets or stand pipes longer than the antenna. The pipe end should be smooth, burr-free and the end rounded.

Note: When mounting on longer sockets or stand pipes, we recommend carrying out a false signal suppression after install (see chapter 6.3 “Parameter adjustment”). Recommended values for socket or stand pipe lengths and heights are in the following table. The values come from typical applications. Fig.
• SE V power supply unit (safety extra-low voltage) with suitable internal or external limitation of the output current The device is supplied with a fixed cable. If an extension is required, a standard two-wire cable can be used. 5.2 Wiring Plan - CNCR-110 Fig. 11: Wire assignment in permanently connected connection cable Wire color Function...
• Operating system: Android 5.1 or newer • Bluetooth 4.0 LE or newer Download the Wireless Device Configurator app from the “Apple App Store” or “Google Play Store” to your smartphone or tablet. To enable the Bluetooth software enter the BinMaster company ID code BMYQXZ. 6.2 Connecting Start the adjustment app and select the function “Setup”. The smartphone/tablet searches auto- matically for Bluetooth-capable instruments in the area.
After the sensor is connected, the sensor adjustment menu is displayed on the smartphone/tablet. If the Bluetooth connection is interrupted, e.g. due to a too large distance between the two devices, this is displayed on the smartphone/tablet. The message disappears when the connection is restored. Parameter adjustment of the device is only possible if the parameter protection is deactivated, which is default.
