© Siemens AG 2016 Level Measurement Point level measurement - Ultrasonic non-contacting switch Pointek ULS200 ■ Overview ■ Application The measuring range for bulk solids is max. 3 m (9.8 ft) and 5 m (16.4 ft) for liquids and slurries. Unlike invasive contacting devices, there is no material buildup on the sensor. The level switch has a rugged design, combining the transducer and electronics in one durable device. It has no moving parts and is virtually maintenance-free. The transducer, available in ETFE or PVDF copolymer, is inert to most chemicals. This means the device can be used in the chemical, petrochemical, water, and wastewater industries. A sanitary version of the ULS200, with an industry standard flange option, is easy to remove from the application for cleaning. It thus satisfies the prerequisites for use in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries. The Pointek ULS200 delivers superior performance while reducing maintenance, downtime, and equipment replacement costs. • Key Applications: liquids, slurries, fluid materials, plugged chute detection, chemical industry 4 The Pointek ULS200 is an ultrasonic non-contacting switch with two switch points for level detection of bulk solids, liquids and slurries in a wide variety of industries; ideal for sticky materials. ■ Benefits • 2 switch outputs for high-high, high, low, and low-low level alarms or pump up/pump down control • Integral temperature compensation • AC or DC power supply • Electronics provided with fail-safe function • Threaded and sanitary fitting clamp process connections • Polycarbonate enclosure, Type 6/NEMA 6/IP67 • Easy, two-button programming ■ Design Installation The Pointek ULS200 should be mounted in an area that is within the temperature range specified and that is suitable to the enclosure rating and materials of construction. The cover should be accessible to allow programming, wiring and display viewing. It is advisable to keep the Pointek ULS200 away from high voltage or current runs, contactors and SCR control drives. Locate the Pointek ULS200 so that it has a clear sound path perpendicular to the material surface. The sound path should not intersect the fill path, rough walls, seams, rungs etc. Mounting and Interconnection The Pointek ULS200 is available in three thread types: 2" NPT, R 2" (BSPT), EN 10226 or PF2 and can be fitted with the optional 75 mm (3 inch) flange adapter for mating to 3" ASME, DN 65, PN 10, and JIS 10K 3B sized flanges. Separate cables and conduit may be required to conform to standard instrumentation wiring or electrical codes. 4/128 Siemens FI 01 · 2016 © Siemens AG 2016 Level Measurement Point level measurement - Ultrasonic non-contacting switch Pointek ULS200 ■ Configuration ■ Technical specifications Mode of operation Parabolic mounting Measuring principle Ultrasonic level switch Measuring range Measuring range in liquids 0.25 ... 5 m (0.8 ... 16.4 ft) Measuring range in bulk solids 0.25 ... 3 m (0.8 ... 9.8 ft) Output AC Version (relay) 2 SPDT Form C contacts, rated 5 A at 250 V AC or 30 V DC, resistive load; rated 1 A at 48 V DC resistive load DC Version (relay) 2 SPDT Form C contacts, rated 5 A at 30 V DC, resistive load; rated 1 A at 48 V DC resistive load DC Version (transistor) 2 switches, rated max. 100 mA, 48 V DC 4 Accuracy AC/DC version • Resolution • Repeatability 3 mm (0.1 inch) 0.25 % of measuring range Rated operation conditions Flat mounting and Beam angle Fill Installation conditions • Location • Beam angle Indoors/outdoors 12° Ambient conditions • Ambient temperature • If mounted in metal threads -40 ... +60 °C (-40 ... +140 °F) -20 ... +60 °C (-5 ... +140 °F) Medium conditions • Process pressure 0.5 bar (7.25 psi) max.
