DLT 2.0 Differential Level Transmitter
CONNECTIONS:
POWER INPUT: 100 to 240 VAC 50/60Hz . No adjustments are necessary for voltages within this range.
Optional DC: 9-32 VDC, 9 Watts. Connect to + and - terminals. Optional Thermostat and Heater modules are available rated for 115 VAC or 230 VAC. IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with CSA/UL electrical safety standards, AC power input and relay
connection wires must have conduit entry to the instrument enclosure. Installation requires a switch, overcurrent fuse or circuit breaker in the building (in close proximity to the equipment) that is marked as the disconnect switch.
Risk of electric shock. Loosen cover screw to access connections. Only qualified personnel
!
should access connections. Note: Use of instrumentation over 40°C ambient requires special field wiring. Note: User replaceable fuse 2 Amp 250V (T2AL250V).

Range displays distance from the sensors to the target or liquid surface like a
tape measure. Range mode is useful to measure the exact distance from the sensors to the zero level during calibration.
Level used to measure tank levels and level difference in linear units, or
"Head" in an open channel for comparison with flow tables.
m
Volume displays inventory of the two tanks in engineering units.
HRT select Horizontal Round Tank mode to calculate and display volume
units in horizontal round tanks.
Flow calculates channel flow through a flume or weir (sensor B only).
Sensor A measures level.
L
Volume, HRT or Flow gives the additional choice of volumetric units:
ft3 - cubic feet USG - US gallons USMG - US million gallons (FLOW only) IG - Imperial gallons IMG - Imperial million gallons (FLOW only) m3 - cubic meters

Appears when calibrating Sensor B. Enter a slope offset value
to compensate for a sloped channel floor. Offset will be a positive value when Sensor B channel floor is lower than Sensor A channel floor.
Damping Minimum damping allows fast response to level changes.
Increasing damping slows the DLT 2.0's response to level changes and is ideal to smooth the display and outputs in turbulent conditions. Damping value is shown in percent (0­99%). Some experimentation may be required to select the optimum damping value. A value of 1% is recommended for most applications and for fast level changes (up to ½ inch/sec ­13 mm/sec).
