Page 5: About Milltronics' Transducers
The Echomax XPS F series of transducers can be used in hazardous areas. For the XPS 10 F series transducer, a hazardous seal must be used to suit hazardous area classification. This seal is not supplied by Milltronics. The XPS 15 F comes equipped with a stainless steel coupling suitable for use in hazardous locations. - Page 6 Page 6 XPS 10/15 F Series Transducer PL-551...

Page 11: Mounting
• On liquid applications, the transducer must be mounted so that the axis of transmission is perpendicular to the liquid surface. • On solids applications, a Milltronics Easy Aimer should be used to facilitate aiming of the transducer. • Do not over-tighten mounting. Hand tightening of the mounting hardware is sufficient. -
Page 12: Liquid Applications
Notes: • In, the examples that follow, an XPS 10 F Series transducer is shown using a hazardous seal. This seal is not supplied by Milltronics. • An XPS 15 F transducer can also be used in these applications, but, because it comes equipped with a stainless steel coupling, no hazardous seal is required. - Page 13 Blind Flange (XPS 10 F shown) nipple welded to bind flange hazardous seal (XPS 10 F only) Flange, gasket, hazardous seal and hardware supplied by customer.

Page 15: Interconnection
Interconnection Note: Installation should only be performed by qualified personnel and in accordance with local governing regulations. Recommendations • When using an XPS 15 F transducer, configure the electronic transceiver for an XCT-12. These two transducers use the same settings. •... - Page 16 2-Wire Extension (XPS 10 F shown) Hazardous Location Non-Hazardous Location (Class I, Div. 1, Group (Safe) A,B,C,D or Class II, Div. 1, Group E,F,G) junction box drain / shield metal conduit extend cable using 18 AWG shielded / twisted pair Note: When connecting to an EnviroRanger ERS 500, the white, black, and shield wires are all connected...

Page 17: Applications
Applications Notes: • The transducer is to be used only in the manner outlined in this instruction manual. • Normally, the transducer requires no cleaning or maintenance. However, if performance changes are observed, immediately shut down the level measurement system and perform a thorough inspection, especially on the transducer. - Page 18 Note: Refer to transceiver manual for programming requirements. hazardous seal (XPS 10 F only) transducer submergence shield* (Refer to Milltronics instruction manual PL-530 for assembly details) air pocket * on applicable models Page 18 XPS 10/15 F Series Transducer...
- Page 19 Standpipes In many applications, access must be made via a standpipe. In such cases, Milltronics can provide factory bonded flanged transducers or a split flange kit that will readily mate to the flanged standpipe. Another option is to hang the transducer from a blind flange.
- Page 20 When used in hazardous areas, the XPS 10 F series transducer (shown) must use a hazardous seal. This seal is not supplied by Milltronics. The XPS 15 F Series transducer comes equipped with a stainless steel coupling suitable for use in hazardous locations.

Page 22: Solids Applications
Solids Applications Typical Transducer angled to avoid seams in bin wall and aimed at discharge in order to read bin when empty. Avoid intersecting bin wall seams, structural members and wall irregularities. bin wall seams filling profile emptying profile Transducer too close to material inlet. Falling material will intersect sound beam and cause erroneous readings or loss of echo. - Page 23 On fluid like solids, aim transducer perpendicular to material surface. minimal angle of repose discharge On dual discharge bins, aim each transducer at the discharge point. transducer PL-551 XPS 10/15 F Series Transducer Page 23...
- Page 24 Transducer should be aimed away from wall projections. When used in hazardous areas, the XPS 10 F series transducer (shown) must use a hazardous seal. This seal is not supplied by Milltronics. The XPS 15 F Series transducer comes equipped with a stainless steel coupling suitable for use in hazardous locations.
- Page 25 Transducer should be mounted perpendicular to slope of wood chips. When used in hazardous areas, the XPS 10 F series transducer (shown) must use a hazardous seal. This seal is not supplied by Milltronics. The XPS 15 F Series transducer comes equipped with a stainless steel coupling suitable for use in hazardous locations.
