PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
DESCRIPTION
The Kotron II Series 801 Transmitter is a new generation RF
Capacitance transmitter that offers the user unparalleled
power. The Series 801 can interface with two separate
vessels, essentially making it a mini-multiplexer, while software mathematics allows for the Sum or Difference of the
two signals.
The amount of capacitance developed in any application is
determined by the size (surface area) of the probe, the distance from the probe to its ground reference, and the dielectric constant of the medium being measured.
Considering that the probe's mounting position is fixed, and
the dielectric value of the medium is constant, the amount of
capacitance developed in any vessel becomes dependent
upon the probe's diameter and length.
As a medium rises and falls in the tank, the amount of capacitance developed between the sensing probe and the ground
reference also rises and falls. The Pulsatel circuit, mounted
on the probe, changes the capacitance signal to a digital signal which can then be sent to the main electronics located up
to 2500 feet (760 M) away.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Please read the entire installation section carefully prior to starting installation.
UNPACKING
INSTALLATION LOCATION cont.
Unpack the instrument carefully, making sure all components
are removed from the packing material. Inspect the components for damage, and report any concealed damage to the
carrier within 24 hours. Check the contents of the
carton/crate against the packing slip and report any discrepancies to the factory. Check the nameplate model number,
making sure it agrees with the packing slip and purchase
order. Check and record the serial number for future reference when ordering parts.
Tanks/Silos with Non-Conductive Materials
of Construction
INSTALLATION LOCATION
NOTE: These comments also apply to glass-lined metal
walled tanks.
Kotron II Series 801 transmitters should be located with easy
access for service, calibration and monitoring. The electronics should not be exposed to ambient temperatures as
follows: below -20° F (-29° C) without heater option; -40° F
(-40° C) with heater option; or above +160° F (+71° C).
Special precaution should be made to prevent exposure
to corrosive atmosphere, excessive vibration, shock, or
physical damage.
With plastic, concrete, wood, or any other non-conductive
walled vessel, the reference electrode mentioned above
needs clarification. Most commonly, this electrode will be in
the form of a concentric ground tube (i.e. stilling well). In
questionable circumstances, consult the factory. In all cases,
a good electrical connection must be made between the
ground surface and the probe housing.
Vertical Mounting
Vertically mounted probes should be installed so that the end
of the probe rod is at least 2.00 inches (51 mm) below the
lowest desired level control point with conductive materials,
or 4.00 inches (102 mm) below the lowest desired level
control point with non-conductive materials. Refer to
Figure 1.
CAUTION: This unit contains CMOS electronics which
may be damaged by static electricity. Do not touch
any semi-conductor device unless you are properly
grounded.
It is common practice to use the metal tank wall as the
ground reference. In such cases, it is required that the probe
housing makes a good electrical connection to the tank wall.
If there is any doubt about this connection or the use of PTFE
thread tape, gaskets, paint, or rust impede this connection, a
separate metal strap should be installed between the probe
housing and the tank.
In non-conductive media, sensing probes should be located
close to the tank wall for greatest sensitivity. Probes should
be isolated from severe motion in the tank, because surface
turbulence may cause signal deviation.
CAUTION: When an insulated probe is used in a hazardous and/or abrasive medium, the probe should be
inspected annually for nicks, cuts or abrasions which
may degrade the integrity of the insulation. In the
event that wear is found, replace the probe or consult
the factory for further instructions. This procedure is
critical in vessels containing hazardous media unless
an I.S. probe circuit is used.
Metal Walled Tanks
On water based liquids, a problem should not be encountered with sensitivity or linearity. With non-conductive, low
dielectric media, sensitivity can be enhanced by locating the
probe close to and parallel with the tank wall. If this is not
practical, a concentric ground tube surrounding the probe,
(stilling well), may be a solution.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) HANDLING PROCEDURE
Magnetrol’s electronic instruments are manufactured to the
highest quality standards. These instruments utilize electronic components which may be damaged by static electricity
present in most work environments. The following steps are
recommended to reduce the risk of component failure due to
electrostatic discharge:
1. Ship and store circuit boards in anti-static bags. If an antistatic bag is not available, wrap board in aluminum foil. Do
not place boards on foam packing materials.
2. Use a grounding wrist strap when installing and removing circuit boards. A grounded workstation is also
recommended.
3. Handle printed circuit boards only by the edges. Do not
touch components or connector pins.
4. Ensure that all electrical connections are completely made
and none are partial or floating. Ground all equipment to a
good, earth ground.

1. The Probe Lo and Probe Hi points are the most critical
in the calibration procedure. Be sure of the values
before they are entered.
2. The media level must be moved to accomplish this procedure. The Probe Lo and Probe Hi points can be
entered in any order and can be easily changed in the
future when the process level is at a much higher or
lower point.
3. A minimum level change of two percent (2%) of tank
height (or 5pF, whichever is greater) will yield a valid
calibration. However, a large change yields better
accuracy..
4. The unit will automatically "time out" and revert back to

SERVICE POLICY
RETURN MATERIAL PROCEDURE
Owners of Magnetrol/STI controls may request the return of
a control or any part of a control for complete rebuilding or
replacement. They will be rebuilt or replaced promptly.
Controls returned under our service policy must be returned
by Prepaid transportation. Magnetrol/STI will repair or
replace the control at no cost to the purchaser (or owner)
other than transportation if:
So that we may efficiently process any materials that are
returned, it is essential that a “Return Material Authorization”
(RMA) number be obtained from the factory, prior to the
material's return. This is available through Magnetrol/STI's
local representative or by contacting the factory. Please supply the following information:
a. Returned within the warranty period; and
b. The factory inspection finds the cause of the claim to be
covered under the warranty.
If the trouble is the result of conditions beyond our control; or,
is NOT covered by the warranty, there will be charges for
labor and the parts required to rebuild or replace the equipment.
In some cases it may be expedient to ship replacement parts;
or, in extreme cases a complete new control, to replace the
original equipment before it is returned. If this is desired, notify the factory of both the model and serial numbers of the
control to be replaced. In such cases, credit for the materials
returned will be determined on the basis of the applicability of
our warranty.
