Level Transmitters
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Liquid level change acts upon the spring supported
displacer causing vertical motion of a core within a linear
variable differential transformer (LVDT).
The enclosing tube acts as a static isolation barrier between
the LVDT and the process media. As core position changes
with liquid level, voltages are induced in the secondary
windings of the LVDT.
These signals are processed in the electronic circuitry and
used to control the current in the 4-20 mA output current
loop.

MODEL IDENTIFICATION
EZ series Modulevel transmitters are identified by a ten digit alpha-numeric part number system. The part number specifies
exact unit configuration,material, level range and other options. ('X' preceding part number indicates special construction).

UNPACKING
After unpacking, inspect all components to see that no
damage has occurred during shipment. Care should be
taken not to bend the displacer stem or enclosing tube
during unpacking or installation.
UNPACKING
A strap and wire assembly retains and protects the displacer
within the chamber during shipment. This assembly must
be removed through bottom chamber connection before
startup. Inspect instrument as described for top mounting
units.
MOUNTING
Careful selection of nozzle location on tank or vessel should
be made to insure proper temperatures.

Caution:
If re-shipping to another location, displacer must
again be secured using same strap and wire
assembly.
MOUNTING
The chamber type Modulevel should be mounted on the
side of the tank or vessel with either 'side and side'
connection or 'side and bottom' connection, as furnished.
NOTE: It is essential that
chamber assembly be
mounted plumb to insure
frictionless operation of its
internal displacer.

OPERATING MODE
EZ Series transmitters are factory set in the direct acting mode (a rising level increases output signal 4-20 mA). If reverse
acting mode is required remove transmitter housing cover carefully and position direct-reverse switch on printed circuit board

SERVICE POLICY
Owners of Magnetrol products 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. Magnetrol International will repair or replace the control, at no cost to
the purchaser, (or owner) other than transportation cost if:
a. Returned within the warranty period; and,
b. The factory inspection finds the cause of the malfunction to be defective material or workmanship.
If the trouble is the result of conditions beyond our control; or, is NOT covered by the warranty, there will be charges for labour
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. No claims for misapplication, labour, direct or consequential damage will be allowed.
RETURNED MATERIAL PROCEDURE
So that we may efficiently process any materials that are returned, it is essential that a Return Material Authorisation (RMA)
form will be obtained from the factory. It is mandatory that this form will be attached to each material returned. This form is
available through Magnetrols local representative or by contacting the factory. Please supply the following information:
1. Purchaser Name
4. Desired Action
5. Reason for Return
2. Description of Material
3. Serial Number
6. Process details
All shipments returned to the factory must be by prepaid transportation. Magnetrol will not accept collect shipments.
All replacements will be shipped FOB factory.
