Introduction
The RS85 switch is a vibrating fork switch designed for liquid
level detection. The robust sensor design and built–in
temperature compensation ensure reliable response even in
the presence of very extreme process conditions. The LED
indicators of the RS85 modular electronics allow for simple
set–up and status detection. Configuration is via
pushbuttons or a provided magnet. The rugged construction
allows it to withstand the rigors of just about any industrial
environment.
Theory of operation
The RS85 vibrating switch utilizes a piezoelectric driven
tuning fork that exhibits a change in resonant frequency
when the forks are immersed in any liquid. 'Smart'
microprocessor–based electronics keep the sensor in a
resonant state as it changes from dry to wet or wet to dry.
The resonant frequency is continuously monitored for
changes created by a wet or dry sensor and an alarm (change
in LED) is provided along with a DPDT relay. An important
feature of this device is that its resonant frequency is not
significantly affected by coating on the fork unless the space
between the forks is bridged. The RS85 ability to identify true
liquid level in viscous, coating or aerated liquid is
unparalleled. The self–test option continuously checks for
fault conditions such as a damaged sensor and under fault
conditions displays a blinking red LED visible through the
glass cover. Applications include high/low liquid level
detection and are unaffected by parameters such as specific
gravity, dielectric constant or mounting position of the
sensor.

... 1 Description
Sample applications
The RS85 can be used for level detection in tanks, vessels or
piping containing all types of hot or cold liquids and is
suitable for high/low level detection applications in
hazardous areas. The RS85 can be mounted in any
orientation. In vertical applications where room allows, the
unit can be extended into the vessel (up to 84 in) with an
extension tube. The RS85 is also available with Teflon
coatings or alloy wetted parts for use in corrosive fluid and
sticky applications.

2 Installation
Mounting
After unpacking the unit, inspect it for any evidence of
shipping damage. Inspect the fork tines to insure that they
are not bent. Forks should be parallel to each other. Any
claims for damage due to shipping must be filed with the
carrier who handled the package (s).
• Select a mounting location for the switch and the sensor
probe. Your unit may be an integral mounting option or the
remote mounting option. The integral mounting unit
consists of a single enclosure that includes the electronic
module and the sensor probe. The remote mounting unit
consists of two enclosures, one containing the electronic
module and the other containing the sensor probe.
• Be sure that there is sufficient clearance around the
mounting position to allow for the turning radius of the
switch or remote sensor enclosure as the unit is screwed
into place. Allow sufficient room above the vessel entry to
be able to insert the probe into the opening of the vessel.
• The standard size of the threaded vessel coupling is ¾ in
NPT for most probes. Other size threaded connections or
flanges are also available.
• Install and tighten threaded process connection switches
with a spanner wrench on the wrench flats of the threaded
connection.

• The information included on the enclosure label should be
visible. If necessary clean the label using a cloth soaked
with either water or isopropyl alcohol.
Tank mounting
The RS85 can be mounted for high or low level detection using
a flange or the standard ¾ in NPT connection.
Switch point and mounting position
Switch points on the sensor depend on the mounting
position. The switch point is determined by the position of
the tuning fork.

Mounting for vessel wall build–up
If there is a potential for build–up on the vessel wall, mount
the RS85 with sufficient distance between the wall and the
fork assembly to prevent bridging.
*

Extended Probe Lengths (PL)
The sensor length 'PL' for the RS85 will differ based on the
process connection. A threaded sensor PL is measured from
the bottom process thread to the tip of the fork tine. A
flanged sensor PL is measured from the face of the flange to
the tip of the fork tine.
Mounting position with extension tubes
If ordering the RS85 with an extended probe length, ensure
there is adequate space between outside walls or ceilings and
the vessel mounting point
A short extended probe length (up to 20 in) can be mounted
in any orientation. An RS85 with an extended probe length
over 20 in (up to 84 in) must be mounted vertically.

Mounting for high viscosity liquids
High viscosity liquids require proper mounting to ensure
accurate, repeatable service. With high viscosities, the
optimum mounting is vertical from the vessel top or
horizontal (flush mounted from the side).
Note: Horizontal mounting: Position the forks so that the
narrow edge of the tines are vertical. This ensures that the
liquid or gelatinous process can run off easily.
Vertical top mounted
Mounting for low viscosity liquids
Mounting positions for low viscosity liquids are shown below.
If the RS85 fork is nozzle mounted with a flange and does not
extend beyond the wall of the vessel, a minimum nozzle
diameter of 2 in is required. If mounted into a threaded
nozzle, forks should protrude past the wall of the vessel.

Factory default settings/reset
Each RS85 will be supplied with the following factory default
settings:
Fail safe mode = high
Time delay = instant
Set points = factory defaults
NOTE
To restore the default settings, always remove the
electronic module from the fork assembly. Then with
power connected to the electronic module Press S1 and
S2 buttons of the electronic module (figure 21) and hold
for several seconds while a sequence of red and green
lights display ending with LED1 RED. Re–install the
electronic module in the fork assembly.

Figure 23
On Initial installation it is recommended that the RS85 be
calibrated to the process conditions/connection. The purpose
is to establish a dry frequency threshold value reference.
Step 2: Calibrating to the process conditions/
connections
With the vibrating fork installed (via. the process
connection) and under dry fork condition power up the
unit. Press S1 and S2 buttons of the electronic module
simultaneously (Figure 23) or hold magnet on ‘X’ of the
magnet position label (Figure 22) for several Seconds. A
sequence of red and green lights will display ending with
LED1 GREEN. The RS85 vibrating fork switch is now
configured to operate under process conditions.
NOTE
The module should be reset to factory defaults (step
1) always before the module is calibrated to process
conditions.

Fail safe/relay operation
A fail safe relay operation is used to energize the relay when
the switch is in normal condition. This will indicate that the
switch has power. Therefore in a fail safe high application, the
relays will be energized when the level is below the switch (dry
fork) and de–energized when the level is above the switch
(wet fork). Likewise, setting the switch Fail Safe to Low will
cause the relays to be energized when the level is above the
switch (wet fork) and de–energize when the level is below
switch (dry fork). The default setting for the fail safe or relay
operation of the resonator is high. To change the fail safe
operation for the relays, place the magnet in the S1 position
(Figure 24) or press pushbutton S1 (Figure 25) for 5 seconds.
LED1 will change back and forth from red to green. Removing
magnet on red will change fail safe to green (fail safe high).
Removing magnet on green will change fail safe to red (fail
safe low). Should power be lost, the relay will de–energize.

4 Time delay
13
The RS85 time delay option allows changing the time
response of the relay output, which is very useful in
applications with severe turbulence or agitation.
In typical applications, the RS85 in default settings will
activate the relays instantaneously when the switch point has
been reached. In certain applications it may be necessary to
delay the action of the relays in the switch. If this is desired, a
time delay for the relays can be set. To enter the time delay
setup mode, place the magnet on 'S1' (figure 26) or press
pushbutton S1 (figure 27) for more than 1 second but less
than 6 seconds. The following sequence of LED’s will be
observed:
Table 3 – Time delay adjustment
OPERATION LED 1 LED 2
Normal Green or red Off
Off Off
Displaying current time delay 'Green' Red
Off Off
S1 PER table 4 'Green' Off
'_' – indicates a blinking LED
Table 4 – Time delay setting
Seconds
After LED2 turns 'off', LED1 will blink in correspondence to the
different time delay settings per table 4. When the desired
time delay is reached, place the magnet on the 'S1' position
(see figure 26). The time delay will be set and the RS85 will
return to normal operation. If a time delay is not selected, the
RS85 will return to its current operating mode without
changing the current time delay setting. During normal
operation of the switch, if a time delay is selected, LED1 will
change color when the switch point has been reached. The
relays will respond after the elapsed time delay on both
energized and de–energized actions.
While LED2 is lit RED, LED1 will blink the current time delay
setting per table 4.
