QDY30A Submersible Liquid Level Sensor

1. Вовед

The QDY30A submersible liquid level sensor is designed for accurate and reliable measurement of liquid levels in various industrial applications. Constructed with 304 & 316 stainless steel and featuring a hermetically sealed housing, it is suitable for most industrial liquids and oils. The sensor's welded housing undergoes in-house helium leak testing to ensure robust protection against environmental factors. A ventilation tube integrated into the cable automatically compensates for changes in atmospheric pressure, ensuring consistent accuracy. The cable conductors are also isolated from the outside environment to maintain long-term operational integrity.

QDY30A - [Measuring Range] - [Output Signal] - [Power Supply] - [Cable Length]

• Мерен опсег: Specify the desired range (e.g., 0-0.5m H2O up to 500m H2O).
• Излезен сигнал: Select from O1: 4-20mA, O2: 0-5V, O3: 1-5V, O4: 0-10V, O5: RS485.
• Напојување: Choose from P1: 12VDC, P2: 24VDC, P3: ±12VDC.
• Должина на кабелот: Specify in meters (e.g., Lm: 5m).

5.2 Методи на инсталација

The QDY30A sensor can be installed using a cable hanger or a fixed flange, depending on the application and tank design. A blind area of approximately 20mm should be considered for both installation types.

5.2.1 Cable Hanger Installation

For this method, the sensor is suspended into the liquid using a cable hanger. The hanger material is 304 stainless steel, and the locking core is made of engineering plastic. Ensure the cable is securely attached to the hanger and the sensor is positioned correctly within the liquid.

5.2.2 Flange Fixed Installation

In this method, the sensor is fixed to the tank using a flange. This provides a more rigid and permanent installation. Ensure the flange is properly sealed to prevent leaks and the sensor is securely mounted.

6.1 Дијаграми за поврзување

Proper wiring is crucial for the correct operation of the QDY30A sensor. Refer to the specific wiring diagram below based on your chosen output signal type.

6.1.1 Current Output (2 wires)

Connect the Red cable to V+ (positive power supply) and the Blue cable to V- (negative power supply/device input). The device (A) will read the current output.

6.1.2 томtage Output (3 wires)

Connect the Red cable to V+ (positive power supply), the Green cable to V- (negative power supply), and the Yellow cable to the 'out' terminal of your device (A). The device will read the voltage излез.

6.1.3 RS485 Output (4 wires)

Connect the Red cable to V+ (positive power supply), the Green cable to V- (negative power supply), the Blue cable to A (RS485 data line A), and the Yellow cable to B (RS485 data line B). Connect these to your PC or RS485 compatible device.

6.2 Level Monitoring and Control

The QDY30A sensor can be integrated into a comprehensive level monitoring and control system. The sensor provides a level signal input to a controller. Based on predefined settings and contact signals, the controller can then activate or deactivate devices such as a water pump or a valve to maintain desired liquid levels.

7. Одржување

To ensure the longevity and accurate performance of your QDY30A submersible liquid level sensor, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Редовна инспекција: Periodically inspect the sensor probe and cable for any signs of physical damage, wear, or corrosion.
• Чистота: Ensure the sensor probe is free from excessive buildup of debris, sediment, or other contaminants that could affect measurement accuracy. Clean gently if necessary, using methods compatible with stainless steel.
• Vent Cable Check: Verify that the vent cable (integrated into the main cable) is clear and unobstructed. A blocked vent cable can lead to inaccurate readings due to improper atmospheric pressure compensation.
• Интегритет на кабелот: The external cable material (PU and NBR) is designed for durability. However, avoid sharp bends, excessive pulling, or exposure to extreme mechanical stress that could compromise the internal wiring.
• Точки за поврзување: Ensure all electrical connections are secure and free from moisture or corrosion.
• Еколошка компатибилност: Confirm that the liquid medium remains compatible with SS304 stainless steel to prevent premature corrosion.
