LVCN-302
Features and Overview
Let's say your tank is 112 inches deep, and the transducer range of the sensor you’ve
chosen is 0-5 psi of water. 5 psi equals 138 inches H
2
O The pressure transducer is
located 11 inches off the bottom of the tank. With 51 inches of water in the tank you are
cavitating the pump, and at 108 inches of water you are facing probable flooding.
The goal is to maintain the liquid level between 90 and 65 inches using LVCN-302. The
following steps should be taken in order to display a 50 to 110 inch "window" of the tank,
while maintaining a liquid level range of 90 to 65 inches. High and low alarm output circuits
will be activated at 105 and 55 inches.
