The SLC-220 is designed for low-power consumption in onshore and offshore applications without an available power source. Therefore, the operating software extensively uses a “sleep mode” algorithm that turns off unnecessary hardware. Each monitored sensor is powered on for a short duration for sampling and decision making, and then turned off. This off interval is user­programmable. Careful selection and programming of optional features will enable operation for months from a single battery charge.
All SLC-220 settings and calibrations can be changed locally or remotely through:
Local LCD & touch screen or RS-232 connection to a PC with the SLC-Manager program (program supplied with a cable)
Remote RS-485 connection to the control room through Modbus
Remote cellular phone messaging if a Cellular modem is installed (SIM card required,
supplied by customer)
The Status of the system is available to the user locally on the LCD or with the SLC-Manager on the PC, or remotely at the control room through wires connectivity (Modbus) or wireless connectivity (Cellular / Satellite / Point-to-Point radio).
There are three types of SLC-220:
1. SLC-220/Multi, which supports up to four Leakwise sensors.
2. SLC-220/Basic, which supports up to two Leakwise sensors.
3. SLR-220, which supports up to four local sensor and multiple remote sensors connected to remote SLC-220 controllers.

2 Installation
Installation of the SLC-220 system includes three major steps. First, the sensors and the SLC-220 unit must be installed in their respective locations. Then, the interconnecting cables should be wired. Finally, configuration and calibration of the system components should be performed. Prior to the calibration procedure, fully install the sensor that has to be calibrated. Instructions and procedures for system configuration and calibration are described in the next chapters.
NOTE: For EMC compatibility, ferrites should be installed on the power and sensor/s cables.
Refer to Appendix D.
2.1 Sensor Installation
The sensors should be placed and installed in accordance with installation instructions specific to each type of sensor. Please refer to the appropriate Sensor User Guide.
2.2 Mounting and Wiring the SLC-220
The SLC-220 unit should be mounted in a dry, shaded location, and should have the inside of the enclosures easily accessible when opening the cover.
For a 100 - 240 VAC system, refer to the following SLC-220 Wiring Diagram: DWGW SLC 003 5. For a 12 / 24 VDC system, refer to the following SLC-220 Wiring Diagram: DWGW SLC 004 2. Refer also to mechanical drawings A SLC 0020, A SLC 0021 and A SLC 0030, and when applicable refer to the NEMA 7 / Exd enclosure drawing/s.
If Safety Barriers are required (hazardous Area installation) refer also to Appendix B in Sensor User Guide, to drawing DWGV2200012 that shows the summary of ITS certificate No. Ex01E2023.
The IP65 / NEMA 4 enclosure has a transparent cover with two latches on the right side and hinges on the left side. After opening the transparent cover there is access to the LCD with touch screen (if installed), installed on the front panel. Access to the boards and wiring connections is easy: Lift the front panel with a finger inserted into the hole on the right side of its edge (the hinges are on the left side).

2.2.1 Connecting the Power Cable
Make sure that there is no power connected to the cable. Pass the cable through the electrical conduit that goes from the power source to the SLC-220. Pass the cable through the input gland on the bottom side of the enclosure.
For 100 - 240 VAC: Connect the cable to the power-supply terminal block inside the enclosure as follows:
Power Line Contact of Power Supply
Terminal Block
AC PHASE 1 (L) AC NULL 2 (N) FRAME GROUND 3 (FG)
NOTE:
Use wires of minimum 18AWG, specified to at least 90°C and 300V. An external switch or circuit breaker (5 Amp) must be installed on the power input line of SLC-220. This switch, located near SLC-220, must disconnect both poles of the supply voltage. It should be rated appropriately and must be marked as the disconnecting device for SLC-220.
For 12 or 24 VDC:
Connect the cable to the power-supply terminal block inside the enclosure as follows:
Power Line Contact of Power Supply
Terminal Block
+12 or + 24 V 1 (+) 12 V or 24 V RETURN 2 (-) FRAME GROUND 3 (FG)
Power consumption is 24 Watts maximum.
Note:
1. A Power On-Off switch is installed near the Power Supply terminal block for easier maintenance when power should be turned off before making wiring changes. The switch disconnects the 12VDC supply to the boards, not the Mains power!
2. When the SLC-220 is powered up, it goes through a self-test procedure of a few seconds which turns on all status lights. Only then the sensors are sampled normally and the lights, relays and 4-20mA outputs are updated to real values.
NOTE for SLC-220/Multi: If one or more Outputs Boards are provided, they are installed on a separate metallic mounting plate above the Main board. The mounting plate can be easily removed since it is fastened by four quick-disconnect nylon studs, giving access to the Main board. The nylon suds should be used gently to avoid break!
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018

2.2.2 Connecting Sensor Cables to SLC-220
Up to four sensors may be connected to the SLC-220. Each sensor is connected individually. The sensor wires are passed through the proper sensor cable gland in the external wall of the enclosure. Then they are connected to the respective contacts in terminal block TB10 (on Main Board) as follows:
Wire Color TB10 Contact Contact Function Red or Brown or Black#1 + Sensor +12 VDC (DET+)
Black or Yellow or Black#2 - Sensor GROUND (DET-) Blue, or Black#3 SIG Sensor SIGNAL (Iout)
Note: For EMC compatibility, a small EMC Filter board is installed as an extension to TB10.
Refer to Appendix D.
Main Board picture:
TB10 is on the right side
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
16
Each sensor input has an indicating red LED on the board to indicate when it is energized. The LEDs are located on the left side of TB10.
For Hazardous-Area installation, connect the sensor through Zener Safety Barriers which are installed on an isolated DIN rail inside the enclosure. If the safety barriers are supplied with the controller, their Safe-Area side is already wired to TB10. Connect the sensors to the Hazardous­Area side of the safety barriers: Wire Color Safety Barrier Contact Contact Function
Red or Brown or Black#1 MTL 7715+ point 3 Sensor +12 VDC (DET+) Black or Yellow or Black#2 MTL 7715+ point 4 Sensor GROUND (DET-) Blue, or Black#3 MTL 7710+ point 3 Sensor SIGNAL (Iout)

2.2.3 Connecting the Analog 4-20 mA / 0-5 V Outputs
Up to four Outputs boards may be installed in one SLC-220/Multi, up to two in SLC-220/Basic. The first board on SLC-220/Multi, located rightmost, is associated with sensor #1; the second board from the right is associated to sensor #2, etc. For SLC-220/Basic, the lower board is associated with sensor #1; the upper board is associated with sensor #2.
Outputs Board picture:
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
18
If the SLC-220 unit is equipped with Outputs board/s, pass the 4-20mA cable through the proper cable gland in the external wall of the enclosure. Then connect the two wires to the contacts of terminal block TB19 as follows:
TB19 Contact Contact Function Iout 4-20 mA + (Current source, non-isolated)
GND 4-20 mA - (Current return, non-isolated) If 0-5 V output is required (instead of 4-20 mA), connect each of the two wires to TB19 as follows: TB19 Contact Contact Function Vout 0-5 V + (non-isolated)
GND 0-5 V return (non-isolated) Note: At this point, the current / voltage output is not galvanically isolated. Setting the functionality / range of the output is done by jumpers on the Outputs board:
JP5 position JP6 position Range at TB19
2-3 2-3 0-5 V 1-2 2-3 4-20 mA < This is the default setting 2-3 1-2 0-20 mA 1-2 1-2 0-24 mA
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
19
Arranging the wires: For SLC-220/Multi, there is one white plastic wire saddle below each Outputs board. Insert the wires into the saddles and guide them to the left of the enclosure, then down and to the cable gland.
Note: If there is only one Outputs board and more than one sensor, and the Common functionality of the Outputs board is selected by setup, then the Analog output will be associated with sensor#1. Note: For a disabled sensor associated with an Outputs board, the 4-20mA output will default to
4.33 mA.
2.2.4 Connecting the Relay Outputs
Up to four Outputs boards may be installed in one SLC-220/Multi. The first board, located rightmost, is normally associated with sensor #1; the second board from the right is normally associated to sensor #2, etc. (See note 3 in 2.2.5 for exceptions).
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
20
For SLC-220/Basic, the lower board is associated with sensor #1; the upper board (if installed) is associated with sensor #2. Pass the cable through the proper cable gland in the external wall of the enclosure. Then connect the wires of this cable to the contacts of terminal blocks TB14 till TB18 of the appropriate Outputs board as follows:
Relay number

Arranging the wires: In SLC-220/Multi, there is one white plastic wire saddle above every Outputs board. Insert the wires into the saddles and guide them to the left of the enclosure, then down and to the cable gland.
Each relay has an indicating LED on the board to indicate when it is energized.
The relays can be set to operate in normal mode or in fail-safe mode. Changing the setting is done in SLC-220 Settings (chapter 4.5).
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
21
There are two modes to use the relays, depending on the setup:
1. Normal mode: Each sensor activates five relays on the relevant Outputs board. There is one relay associated with each status: Water, Oil, High Oil, Air and Fail.
2. Common mode: If only one Outputs board is installed, relay #1 will alarm on Oil / High Oil for sensor #1, relay #2 will alarm on Oil / High Oil for sensor #2, etc., and relay #5 will alarm on Fail in any of the enabled sensors. This results in individual Oil / High Oil indication and a common Fail indication.
Changing between the modes is done in SLC-220 Settings (chapter 4.5).
2.2.5 Adding / Removing Outputs boards, and Selt-Test
Up to four Outputs boards may be installed in one SLC-220/Multi. The first board, located rightmost, is associated with sensor #1; the second board from the right is associated to sensor #2, etc. The Outputs boards are connected in a series chain to the Main board which sends updated data to the relays and to the Analog output.
Outputs board #1 is connected by a flat cable from header J11 to header J6 on the Main board. Outputs board #2 is connected by a flat cable from J11 to J12 on Outputs board #1. Outputs board #3 is connected by a flat cable from J11 to J12 on Outputs board #2. Outputs board #4 is connected by a flat cable from J11 to J12 on Outputs board #3.
Note 1: Headers J11 and J12 on each board are actually in parallel; therefore, they may be interchanged in cases where it is more convenient, for example in SLC-220/Basic.
There are four jumpers on each Outputs board which must be set properly to ensure correct operation of the outputs. The setting depends on the total number of sensors and Outputs boards, and their position in the chain: For SLC-220/Multi, where additional Outputs board/s (up to 4) may be added at any time, the rightmost Outputs board in the chain will be associated with sensor #1 and will have address #1 (JP1 shorted, JP2, JP3, JP4 disconnected). Second Output board in the chain will be associated with sensor #2 and will have address #2 (JP2 shorted, JP1, JP3, JP4 disconnected), etc.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
22
Associating an Outputs board with sensor #1:
Note 2: Update the number of installed Outputs boards in SLC-220 Settings (chapter 4.5).
Note 3: In principle it is not important to associate a certain Outputs board in the chain to a certain
sensor in a rigid order. Note 4: It is also possible to associate more than one Outputs board to the same sensor! By
doing this, for example, two relays on different Outputs boards will give indications in parallel for the specific sensor status, and two 4-20mA outputs will give the same information for this sensor.
Note 5: An Outputs board associated to a disabled sensor will not operate: All relays will be de­energized, and all 4-20mA outputs will be set to 4.33 mA.
Outputs board self-test:
1. Power down the controller.
2. Remove the jumper from JP1 / JP2 / JP3 / JP4 of the Outputs board to be tested.
3. Power up the controller.
4. The relays will be energized and de-energized in sequence one after the other.
5. The 4-20mA output will change between 5mA and 10mA when a complete sequence cycle of the relays in finished.
6. Power off the controller.
7. Insert the jumper back to JP1 / JP2 / JP3 / JP4 (where it was before).
8. Power on. The Outputs board will operate normally.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018

2.2.6 Front Panel Status Lights, On-Board Buzzer
There are six status lights on the front panel. The Power (green) light indicates operation of the unit. The other five lights can be used in either of two operating modes:
1. Common mode: Water (green), Oil (red), High Oil (red), Air (yellow) and Fail (yellow) lights will turn on if any of the enabled sensors (up to four sensors) generates the appropriate status. Therefore, it is possible that more than one light is turned on.
2. Individual mode: Oil 1 (red), Oil 2 (red), Oil 3 (red), Oil 4 (red) and Fail (yellow) lights will be operated as follows:
Oil 1 will turn on when sensor #1 generates Oil or High Oil status.
Oil 2 will turn on when sensor #2 generates Oil or High Oil status.
Oil 3 will turn on when sensor #3 generates Oil or High Oil status.
Oil 4 will turn on when sensor #4 generates Oil or High Oil status.
Fail light is common to all enabled sensors. It will turn on if any of the four sensors
is in Fail status.
Therefore, it is possible that more than one light is turned on.
Note: Status of a disabled sensor will not be reflected in the status lights.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
24
The system is supplied in Common mode for systems supplied with a single sensor, and in Individual mode for systems supplied with more than one sensor. In order to change between
modes, if required, do the following:
1. Remove the existing Lights board from the front panel.
2. Remove the aluminum black Lights panel.
3. Install the black Lights panel inverted with the correct legends facing the user.
4. Install another Lights board (DWG S SLC 003 1) that has correct LEDs colors for the required mode (should be ordered separately). The serial number of a Common mode board end with a "C", while the serial number of an Individual mode board end with a "I".
5. Make the correct mode setting in SLC-220 Settings (chapter 4.5).
Lights Board picture:
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
25
A new type of Lights board (DWG S SLC 003 2) will be installed during 2018. It supports both Common and Individual modes, therefore mode change will be very quick and easy. The board has JP11 MODE jumper to select between the modes. To use the Common mode, install the board with its’ right side above the black Lights panel. To use Individual mode, install the board with its’ left side above the black Lights panel.
New Type of Lights Board:
On-Board Buzzer:
Shoring jumper JP1 near the on-board buzzer (and TB6) enables the buzzer. The buzzer will beep one after a successful parameters update done through the LCD display or through the SLC-Manager PC program. It will beep multiple times if there are problems in the parameters, which will then be rejected.

2.2.7 Connecting the RS-485 SCADA Serial Port
This port can be used only for connecting a SCADA or any other unit using Modbus protocol to the SLC-220 for setup, calibration and status interrogation. The specifics of using the protocol with SLC-220 are detailed in a separate document.
The port is set to 115,200 Baud as default, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and no flow control. The baud rate can be changed by the SLC-Manager program through the PC serial port.
Pass the cable through the proper gland in the external wall of the enclosure. Then connect the wires to the contacts of terminal block TB2 on the Main board as follows:

2.2.9 Connecting a PC to RS-232 Serial Port
A PC can be connected to the SLC-220 for setup, calibration and monitoring the sensors when required. The PC should have the SLC-Manager program installed to do this.
A RS-232 cable is supplied: Male to female, non-crossed Rx & Tx. Connect the 9-pin male D­Subminiature connector to connector J9 on the Main board, as follows:
J9 Contact Contact Function (SLC-220 side) 2 RxD (Data input to SLC-220)
3 TxD (Data output from SLC) 4 DTR (Input, Data Terminal Ready from PC) 5 GND (and shield of RS-232 Cable)
Connection of PC DTR to pin 4 is essential to enable automatic detection of a device connected to this port.
For a PC without a RS-232 connector, a RS-232 to USB adaptor is also supplied.
For IP65 / NEMA 4 enclosure of SLC-200/Multi: Connect the PC to an extension connector located at the top-left of the opened enclosure, and marked "PC".
For IP65 / NEMA 4 enclosure of SLC-200/Basic: Connect the PC to an extension connector located at the right of the opened enclosure, and marked "PC".
For Exd / NEMA 7 enclosure: There is a "PC" connector located under the glass window. This enables easy connection of a PC without the need to open the screws of the enclosure.
The communication through this port is in Modbus protocol with a fixed address 1. Therefore, a SCADA can be connected to the RS-232 port if required. The port is set to a fixed 115,200 Baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
Note: The PC and the SCADA share the same serial port on the SLC-220 Main board. When a PC or any other terminal is connected to the RS-232 port, the RS-485 SCADA port is disabled within 10 seconds after the SCADA confirms this event. This is required since the SLC-220 acts as a slave device, and can handle only one master device at a time: PC or SCADA.

3. For non-hazardous area: 1800 meters maximum if 20 AWG wires (or thicker wires) are used.
The above maximum cable lengths refer to connecting the sensor to Safety Barriers. Safety Barriers are usually installed close to the signal processor in a safe area. A safe area may be an Explosion Proof enclosure installed in a hazardous area. The Safety Barriers may be installed in a longer distance from the signal processor, and the connecting cable between them and signal processor should have 16 AWG wires (or thicker).
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
30
If the installation is not in hazardous area (safety barriers are not used):
The cable should be a simple cable used for power purposes, for example 3 times 1 or 1.5 mm². Do not use a communication cable with twisted wires or a coaxial type.
If the installation is in hazardous area (safety barriers are used): Use a cable of 3 conductors (gauge as described above), non-twisted inside outer jacket (communication cables are not good). The jacket should withstand 500 V RMS. The capacitance between each two wires should not exceed 200 pF/meter. The inductance of each wire should not exceed 0.7 uH/meter. Select such a cable from a catalog or test its capacitance and inductance.
A shielded cable is not required in most cases.
Zener Safety Barriers for installation in hazardous area:
Note: MTL 715+ and 710+ are obsolete. Use MTL 7715+ and 7710+.

3 Sensor signals, processing & Calibration
Each Leakwise sensor has a cable with three wires named: DET+, DET-, DET Sig. DET+ : +12VDC supply in reference to DET-. Supplied current is the sum of the currents through
the other two wires.
DET- : Power and signal ground. Returning current between 6 to 9mA, no matter if the sensor is in
air or in water.
DET Sig. : Sensors' current output signal, value depends on sensor model and on liquid condition
around the sensor, typically as follows: Typical signal values are: ID-221: In Air: 0.65 to 0.85 mA
In clean Water: 1.00 to 1.30 mA ID-223 (all models): In Air: 0.90 to 1.10 mA if the sensor is 20 mm or more above bottom flange.
In Air: 0.65 mA when the sensor is resting on bottom flange. In Oil layer of 30 mm or more: 0.97 to 1.10 mA In clean Water: 1.60 to 1.90 mA
ID-225/100: In Air: 1.00 mA. In Oil layer of 110 mm or more: 1.20 mA In clean Water: 3.20 to 3.40 mA
ID-225/200: In Air: 1.10 mA. In Oil layer of 230 mm or more: 1.44 mA In clean Water: 4.30 to 4.50 mA
ID-227: In Air: 0.80 to 1.00 mA. In clean Water: 1.35 to 1.80 mA
The signal gets lower below Water signal as oil layer increases.

The SLC-220 processor is responsible for status/warning decision-making based on comparing the existing sensor signal to the calibration and set point parameters that were programmed by the user.
For example, “Oil Alarm” will be determined when sensor’s signal is more than Water Calibration
minus High Oil Delta set point, and also less than Water Calibration minus Oil Delta set point. Only one status is possible at a given time.
Calibration parameters Water Calibration and Air Calibration are the basic reference for every decision-making. These two parameters should be entered once after seeing the measured sensor signal when the sensor is dry (Air Calibration) and when the sensor is floating in clean site water (Water Calibration).
All calibration parameters are positive numbers, in µA.
The following set points are in reference to Water Calibration:
Over range Delta: Sensor signal above Water Calibration + Over Range Delta is abnormal and indicates that the sensor either went under water or failed.
Oil Delta: Sensor signal below Water CalibrationOil Delta means oil detection. This is the first oil alarm setting, for relatively thin oil layer detection.
High oil Delta: Sensor signal below Water CalibrationHigh Oil Delta means high-oil detection. This is the second oil alarm setting, for relatively thick oil layer detection.
Air Delta is in reference to Air Calibration. This parameter ensures that when the sensor is not floating on water or on oil, the indicated status will be AIR even if the sensor is not 100% dry.
Under Range Set Point is an absolute parameter. It defines a minimum signal which is normally expected from the sensor. If sensor signal is lower than this value, it the sensor failed.
In addition to the above parameters, there is a Hysteresis parameter that influences each comparison of sensor’s signal to the other parameters and calibration points. The default value is 5 µA, and it adds a hysteresis of ±5 µA around each crossing point between two adjacent status decisions.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018

Status Description
1. WATER: The most normal indication when no oil is detected, and the sump is not dry.
2. OIL alarm: Small oil layer was detected.
3. HIGH OIL alarm: A thick oil layer was detected, thicker than Oil 1 Alarm.
4. AIR: The sensor is out of water or oil (the sump is dry).
5. SIGNAL TOO HIGH: Indicated a possible sensor failure or an improper floatation (too deep or submerged).
6. SIGNAL TOO LOW: Indicated a possible sensor failure.
The Lights on the front panel will show FAIL status for any fail indication. The details about the nature of the failure can be seen through the PC, Modbus, LCD or wireless communication, whatever option implemented.
Parameters Description
Water Calibration
A value (in μA) that is equal to sensor output when floating properly in clean water. If the measured signal is more than Water Calibration - Oil Delta + Hysteresis, then the status is WATER.
Oil Delta
A value (in μA) below Water Calibration. If sensor's signal is less than Water Calibration - Oil Delta - Hysteresis then the status is OIL alarm.
High Oil Delta
A value (in μA) below Water Calibration. If sensor's signal is less than Water Calibration - High Oil Delta - Hysteresis then the status is HIGH OIL alarm.
Air Calibration
A value (in μA) that is equal to sensor output in Air, without any liquid around.
Note: For ID-223, this is the value when the sensor is held by a non-metallic spacer at least 2 cm above the bottom flange of the cage.
Air Delta
A value (in μA) above Air Calibration. It is used for ensuring Air status even if the sensor is a bit wet or doesn’t sit correctly on the bottom flange.
If measured sensor's signal is less than Air Calibration + Air DeltaHysteresis then the status is AIR.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
35
Hysteresis for all Thresholds
This is a value (in μA) above and below each of the crossing points between adjacent status indications. This value introduces a Hysteresis window around each crossing point to prevent bouncing between two status changes and unstable operation of relay outputs. This value if 5 μA as default, but can be changed (see SLC-220 Advanced Settings).
Over range Delta
This is a value (in μA) above Water Calibration. If measured sensor's signal is higher than Water Calibration + Over Range Delta + Hysteresis, the status will be FAIL:
SIGNAL TOO HIGH.
Under Range Set Point
This is an absolute value (in μA) that indicates an abnormal low sensor signal value limit. If measured sensor's signal is lower than Under Range Set Point - Hysteresis, the status will be FAIL: SIGNAL TOO LOW.
Note:
The SLC-220 is factory set and calibrated according to the supplied sensors or to typical values of the supplied sensors. The minimum settings that should be done after installation are: Water calibration, Air calibration, Oil Delta and High Oil Delta.
NOTE: Refer to sensor User Guide for specific notes related to floatation and calibration.
Important Note:
All the following calibration rules must always be valid to enable the system to perform
correctly:
Water Calibration > Air Calibration
Oil Delta < High Oil Delta
• (Water Calibration - High Oil Delta - Hysteresis) >
(Air Calibration + Air Delta + Hysteresis + 10 μA)
Under Range Set Point < Air Calibration
The SLC-220 will give a feedback if the rules are violated and will reject such wrong settings.

The parameters can be changed after pressing the Change Parameters button by a Technician or by an Administrator user level:
The parameters are (see also chapter 3):
1. Sensor name: A text field with up to 13 characters.
2. Sensor model: As defined. It is important to select the correct model since the typical signal ranges are selected by the system and used to derive self-test results.
3. Air Calibration: A value (in μA) that is equal to sensor output in Air, without any liquid around. Note: When the Calibrate button is pressed (on this line while in the Change mode), a measuring cycle is performed, and the sensor signal is taken as Air Calibration. This means that the sensor must be in dry condition when doing this.
4. Oil Delta: A value (in μA) below Water Calibration. If sensor's signal is less than Water Calibration - Oil Delta - Hysteresis, then the status is OIL alarm.
5. High Oil Delta: A value (in μA) below Water Calibration. If sensor's signal is less than Water Calibration - High Oil Delta - Hysteresis, then the status is HIGH OIL alarm.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
42
6. Water Calibration: A value (in μA) that is equal to sensor output when floating properly in clean water. If the measured signal is more than Water Calibration - Oil Delta + Hysteresis, then the status is WATER. Note: When the Calibrate button is pressed (on this line while in the Change mode), a
measuring cycle is performed, and the sensor signal is taken as Water Calibration. This means that the sensor must be in clean water when doing this.
7. Current Season, Winter Offset: Either Summer or Winter. In winter, the parameter Winter Offset is subtracted from Water Calibration for compensating the influence of water icing.
8. AutoCleaner Installed: Future feature. Relevant for a ID-227 sensor connected as sensor number 1. If Yes is selected, the automatic sensor cleaning will be enabled.
9. Alarm at Air: If Yes is selected, Air status will be treated as an Alarm condition. Select Yes for ID-221 or ID-225 or ID-227. For ID-223 it depends on the application.
10. Sample Interval: Relevant for firmware versions before 4.1. Determines how often the system will take a signal sample from the sensor for validating / updating the status. This is important for battery operated systems. The interval can be between 30 seconds and 15 minutes, or it can be sampling Continuously.
11. Delay Time (Filter): Relevant for firmware versions before 4.1. A delay window between 1 and 30 seconds on the reading from the sensor. This is important if the sensor is installed in a non-stable liquid environment. Any alarm will have to be present enough readings within the delay window to take effect as a valid status. See also Alarm Reading Percentage Threshold.
12. Warm Up Time: Relevant for firmware versions before 4.1. A period letting the sensor reach a stabilized output signal after it is turned on. The sampling is done after this period has ended. This parameter should be correlated with the level of liquid instability in which the sensor floats. This period can be set between 0.5 second and 15 seconds.
Save to SLC button: Writes the updated parameters to the SLC-220 unit, and updates the View Parameters column on the left.
Load from SLC button: Reads the existing parameters from the SLC-220 unit for viewing and changing if necessary.
Save to PC button: Writes the updated parameters to the PC as a xml file. Load from PC button: Reads parameters from a xml file in the PC for viewing and changing if
necessary, and for saving to the SLC-220 if necessary. Exit (Back) button: Return to the Main Sensors View screen.

Notes:
1. In each screen where parameter where changed, press Save to SLC button or Save to PC button (as appropriate) BEFORE changing to a different screen or exiting the
program. If a substantial sensor parameters change is done in the two screens related to the sensor, press the Save to SLC button only after doing all such changes, to avoid conflicts between parameters.
2. On versions before 2.0.0.1: After Load From PC, do a Save to SLC from each screen.
3. It is recommended to have the parameters saved also to the PC for future reference.
4. When a parameter is changed, it is colored red until it is saved to the SLC or to the PC.
5. If the Save operation is stuck or gives an error message, reset the SLC-220 and the SLC­Manager.
6. After the parameters are saved on the SLC-220 controller, the on-board Buzzer will confirm it with a single beep, or reject the data by sounding multiple beeps.
Pressing the Advanced button enables an Administrator user to view and change additional special parameters:
Pressing the View Parameters button returns the display to the basic Sensor parameters.
1. Alarm Reading Percentage Threshold: Relevant for firmware versions before 4.1. When the Delay Time (Filter) opens a measurement window to filter out unstable readings, the Alarm Reading Percentage Threshold (between 5% and 100%) defines the proportion between the two alternating statuses for determining the "winning" status in unstable liquid conditions. For example, if 70% is selected, and then 85% of the readings "vote" Oil status while the other 15% "vote" Water status, then Oil status will be determined at the end of the Delay Time.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
44
2. Sensor Filter Level: Signal digital filtering level on sensor measurements before reaching the stage of determining the status. There are 16 levels of filtering, where level 15 is the highest level and used when the sensor floats in a very non-stable liquid environment. Level 0 doesn’t filter at all, and is used for calm water conditions. It is advised to check Water Calibration after changing this parameter.
3. Alarm Cycles Wait Before Transmit: Relevant for firmware versions before 4.1. This determines how many Sample Intervals will be performed from the moment that a new status change is first detected, until the new status is accepted as valid. If the status changed during one of the cycles, the new status is ignored, and the process starts again. The number of cycles can be between 1 and 7. 1 means that one additional cycle is added to the original cycle, so two consecutive cycles must "agree" on the same status change. If Immediate is selected, then the status is determined at the end of each cycle.
4. Over Range Delta: This is a value (in μA) above Water Calibration. If measured sensor's signal is higher than Water Calibration + Over Range Delta + Hysteresis, the status will be FAIL: SIGNAL TOO HIGH.
5. Under Range Set Point: This is an absolute value (in μA) that indicates an abnormal low sensor signal value limit. If measured sensor's signal is lower than Under Range Set Point minus Hysteresis, the status will be FAIL: SIGNAL TOO LOW.
6. Air Delta: A value (in μA) above Air Calibration. It is used for ensuring Air status even if the sensor is a bit wet or doesn’t sit correctly on the bottom flange. If measured sensor's signal is less than Air Calibration + Air Delta – Hysteresis, then the status is AIR.
7. Sensor Current Pos Reading: This is a read only value (in μA), shown in red, of the measured current through the positive wire of the sensor, representing current consumption of the sensor. It is updated each time the Advanced screen is entered.
8. Sensor Current Neg Reading: This is a read only value (in μA), shown in red, of the calculated current through the negative wire of the sensor, representing return current consumption of the sensor. The value equals the difference between measured current through the positive wire and Sensor Signal (shown on Main View Screen). It is updated each time the Advanced screen is entered.

Pressing the View Parameters button returns the display to the basic SLC-220 parameters.
1. Administrator Password: Initial password is 5678.
2. Project Index: All SLC-220 units considered as a single group in a site will have the same
project index. The index can be between 1 and 65536. This is important when working under a common controller, such as SLR-220.
3. Hysteresis: A value in µA that is added / subtracted to/from the calculation of each cross-
point between two adjacent statuses. This can be 1, 3 5 or 10 µA. A lower number is good for operation in calm water, a higher number is better for turbulent water.
4. Test Mode: For firmware version 4.1 or later. For normal and default SLC-220 operation,
the setting is No. After selecting Yes, the scanning of the enabled sensors is slowed down significantly, to enable current measurement of sensors wires with a mA meter. A beep from the Main board is heard every 10 seconds, when the next sensor is powered. Status updates are slowed down, therefore it is the responsibility of the user to exit the Test Mode at the end of the test.

5. Low Battery Threshold for Warning: For battery operated units. A warning will be sent if
battery voltage decreases below this value.
6. Low Battery Threshold: Save Power: For battery operated units. The SLC-220 will enter
a power save mode and will not monitor the sensors. The idea is not to drain the battery too much. Power save mode will continue until battery voltage rises above this value.
7. Sensor + Supply Upper Legal Limit: Maximum allowed current consumption through the
positive sensor wire.
8. Sensor + Supply Lower Legal Limit: Minimum allowed current consumption through the
positive sensor wire.
9. Sensor - Supply Upper Legal Limit: Maximum allowed current consumption through the
negative sensor wire.
10. Sensor - Supply Lower Legal Limit: Minimum allowed current consumption through the
negative sensor wire.

Notes:
The system performs a 2-3 seconds self-test when turned on and after saving changes to parameters.
After changing parameters, the user should save the changes or discard them by pressing "Back" and agree to discard the changes.
When the PC is connected to the SLC-220, the user is not supposed to work with the LCD and change parameters, to avoid contradictions; Therefore, the LCD is automatically disabled when the unit is connected to PC.
The display mode "Back Light Auto Off" shuts the display back light after 10 minutes of no touch-panel activity. To activate the display again just touch anywhere on the display. It resumes at the System Overview Screen and discards all unsaved changes. This mode is recommended to enable longer life time for the display module.
After the parameters are saved on the SLC-220 controller, the on-board Buzzer will confirm it with a single beep, or reject the data by sounding multiple beeps.

6 Using the optional GSM MODEM
The optional GSM & WCDMA cellular MODEM (Sierra Wireless AirLink GL8200) enables a remote over-the-air cellular wireless connectivity of the SLC-220 to cell phones or other cellular modems. A cellular modem communicating with the SLC-220 can be a part of SLR-220 receiver or a part of any end-user computerized system.
The SLC-220 will send reports only to pre-defined users. The reports are text (SMS) messages generated according to the status of the sensors and according to the messaging setup. The format of status messages is:
nn,sensor name,Status,Signal
nn - Serial number of the message. The number rolls to 01 after reaching 99. Message
numbers help to identify the order of sent messages in cases of multiple messages during a short period of time, or in case that the cellular infra-structure is heavily loaded.
sensor name - Sensor name (up to 13 characters), as programmed previously by the user.
The name appears in the messages inside double quote characters, for example “Tank 15”.
Status – Can be either Air or Water or Oil or HiOil or Fail. Signal - a 4 digit value with the uA units (micro Amperes) at the end. This is the last known
reading of the sensor before the message was sent.
Example:
24,TANK 7 DRAIN”,Water,1563uA
Repeated messages of the current status will be sent as often as required and set, and this serves as an indication that the system is alive.
The user can set many operational parameters by sending text messages in one of the formats listed in paragraphs 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 below. Each message is responded by the SLC-220 in a similar format as an acknowledge. The user should wait for this acknowledge before sending the next message to the SLC-220.
There are three main types of text messages to the SLC-220:
Configuration - set & get an acknowledge.
Calibration - set & get an acknowledge.
Inquiry - inquire & get a reply containing the requested data / parameters.
Currently the SLC-Manager PC program is sufficient to set and review all parameters of SLC-220, except the specific parameters related to the GSM option. The LCD on the front panel of the SLC-220 (if installed), is another way for setting and review all parameters of SLC-220, and in addition can be used to set GSM users. Configuration setup can be done through the LCD and through SMS messaging to / from the SLC-220.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
56
Notes:
The text of all messages is NOT case sensitive, i.e. “b” is the same as “B”. The only exception is Sensor Name, which must be in capital letters.
There are no space characters in all messages, only coma (,) separation is allowed. The only exception is the text of Sensor Name which may include space character/s.
Message sender (the GSM modem of the SLC-220) is identified by the phone number of the SIM card installed (user responsibility).
The messages don’t include a date/time stamp. The user will have a date/time stamp when the SMS message is received by the cell phone or receiving computer with GSM modem. The serial number of the message helps to identify the order of the incoming messages to the user.
When sending Configuration, Calibration or Inquiry text messages to SLC-220, the replies from SLC-220 will be sent to the phone number which sent the initial message. Therefore, the phone number of the sender must be recognizable and shouldn’t be hidden.
Text messages sent to human user #1 are followed by a voice dial, which the user should reject. This is to indicate that a message was sent, even if it wasn’t received yet.
Notes for battery operated SLC-220 with GMS option:
The GSM modem will turn off after 10 minutes of inactivity of incoming / outgoing messages in order to conserve battery power. After one hour, the modem will be turned on to check for incoming messages.
The user can send text messages to the SLC-220 for quick response (subject to cellular network load) in the following timing windows:
1. Within 10 minutes after system power-on - A session window of 10 minutes is initiated by the first SMS sent to the SLC-220, and the SLC-220 will respond immediately.
2. Within 10 minutes after SLC-220 sends any text message – A session window of 10 minutes is initiated, and the user can communicate with the SLC-220 immediately. Therefore the 10 minutes window will be extended as required, until the session is not active for 10 minutes.
The user can send up to 20 messages to the SLC-220 at any time even when the GSM modem is turned off. The SLC-220 will respond within one hour and initiate a session window of 10 minutes. It is the responsibility of the user to send correct messages and wait for confirmation from the SLC-220 before continuing with additional settings which may create a conflict.
Note: The above is not implemented yet in firmware versions 4.1 and up.
Installing a SIM card in the GSM Modem:
The modem is attached to the instrument frame with a detachable two-part “Scotch” tape. Locate the slot for inserting the SIM card (mini SIM size) and verify that the card is locked in place. The SIM card should not be protected by a PIN code. The GSM modem supports 2nd generation and 3rd generation networks.

Example: CFGSNS,1,TANK 7 DRAIN
This sensor will be named in the messages as “TANK 7 DRAIN” for easier identification.
Note:
If sensor name is not programmed by the user, then the default will be sensor#1, sensor#2, sensor#3 or sensor#4 according to sensor index.
Note: This setting can also be done from SLC-Manager PC program or from the LCD (if installed).
6.1.4 Update Interval
Determines how often a specific message will be re-sent again and again to the user/s. It is up to the user to determine which messages are more critical than others. If the SLC-220 is battery powered, this should also be taken into consideration when determining the Update Intervals.
Message format:
CFGINT,sensor index,index for Water,index for Oil,index for High-Oil,
index for Air,index for Fail,index for Battery
sensor index: A single digit number describing the number of the sensor in the unit, from sensor

6.2 Calibration Messages
The calibration is a session of commands (listed below) with a “Write Calibration“ command that closes the session. Any user (cell phone or computer) can perform the session. Even two or more
users can split the commands between them, but the session will end when the first “Write
Calibration“ command will be received by the SLC-220.
Note: All calibration setting can also be done from SLC-Manager PC program or from the LCD.
6.2.1 Set-Points Setting
Sets the calibration set-points of the sensor connected to a specific sensor input of the unit. Each command sets only one parameter. Additional commands are required for setting other set-points. Refer to chapter 3 for detailed information on set-points.

7 SLR-220/SGM
The description below refers to firmware version 4.23. The SLR-220 is basically the same as SLC-220, but it can receive data from a sensor connected
to a remote SLC-220. To accomplish this, the SLC-220 and the SLR-220 are both equipped with a GSM modem, as the data between the two units is transferred through text (SMS) messaging.
The SLR-220/GSM can support a maximum number of 4 sensors. Some of them can be Local sensors that are connected directly to TB10 of the SLR-220. The rest of the sensors are Remote sensors, each one connected to a remote SLC-220/GSM. Each Remote SLC-220 can be connected to local sensors, up to four. For example, the SLR-220 can support:
1. One Remote sensor and three Local sensors, or
2. Two Remote sensors connected to different SLC-220 units and two Local sensors, or
3. Two Remote sensors connected to the same SLC-220 unit and two Local sensors, etc.
Be careful when assigning the sensors in the SLR-220 receiver and in the Remote SLC-220 unit/s:
1. The names of Local sensors of the SLR-220 can be any names.
2. The names of Remote sensors in the SLR-220 must begin with “SRV”, for example: SRV TANK 14”.
3. The names should be in capital letters.
4. The name of a specific Remote sensor must begin with “RMT” and end with “#1” or “#2” or
“#3” or “#4”, according to the destination sensor number in the SLR-220. For example:
“RMT TANK 14#2” will cause this remote sensor to be displayed as sensor #2 named
TANK 14 in the SLR-220.
5. The calibration parameters set in the remote SLC-220 (for the Remote sensor) will be used to determine the status of this sensor. The data, including the measured signal, will be sent to the SLR-220, and will be used to display, turn on Light and activate the associated Outputs board. In future firmware version, the SLR-220 will update the status according to the highest message serial number received: If for example message number 40 was received, and afterwards message number 39 is received, message 39 will be ignored.
Note:
A Remote sensor in the SLR-220 will be not be seen at TB10 on the Main board as if it is scanned by the SLR-220 as a Local sensor (the small LED will not blink for a remote sensor).
The phone number of the receiving SLR-220 is set as human user 1 in the Remote SLC-220. This user should be enabled and set for maximum detailed <Status List> – Refer to section 6.1.1 User Configuration. The other users of the Remote SLC-220 can also be set to accept messages if required.
In the SLR-220 firmware version 4.23, the human users can be set to receive updates as usual. This is useful for the local sensors of the SLR-220. The remote sensors should better update the users directly from the remote SLC-220 to get a faster response time. The SLR-220 currently doesn’t inquire the remote SLC-220 units, but only waits for updates.
When the SLR-220 receives a text message from a remote sensor (RMT) intended for a remote channel (SRV), it analyzes the message and extracts the status and signal. Then the appropriate sensor channel is updated by the received sensor signal. The received status and signal from the remote sensor is used for updating the Lights on the front panel, and also for updating the relays and 4-20mA outputs and optional LCD.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
66
When the SLR-220 is turned on, there is no data yet from any Remote sensor. Therefore, the SLC-Manager will show on the PC screen (or on optional local LCD) 0 µA for the Remote sensors, until they send their first text message. Until the first update, all the relays of Remote sensors will be off, and the 4-20mA outputs of Remote sensors will be set to 4.25 mA.
The SLR-220 will be updated with sensor signal and sensor status even if the status didn’t change, but the signal continued to change, for example when oil layer slowly changed by a certain percentage but didn’t reach High Oil yet.
Nevertheless, if more frequent updates from the Remote sensors are required, the user may configure the Remote SLC-220 units to re-send each status & signal as frequent as required, on the expense of more SMS messages per month. Refer to section 6.1.4 Update Interval. The fact that a Remote SLC-220 is battery powered should also be taken into consideration when determining the Update Intervals, as the GSM modem is a significant power consumer (when turned on, it stays on for at least 10 minutes). For example, if the re-send intervals are set to the 10 minutes minimum, the modem will practically stay on all the time! The GSM modem of the SLR-220 is powered continuously.
It is possible to make Inquiry about the STATUS of a remote sensor directly to the phone number of the Remote SLC-220, or to the phone number of the SLR-220. Refer to section 6.3 Inquiry Messages.
Two additional messages may appear as an error in SLC-Manager and on the LCD:
“Modem Failure” if there is a problem with the local modem.

Check cables from the sensor. Refer to the wiring diagram.
Sensor is out of calibration.
Check that the sensor signal is within the limits of AIR and WATER values. Otherwise, re-calibrate the channel.
Abnormal signal output from the Sensor because of Sensor malfunction.
Disconnect the Sensor from the SLC-220, connect it to external 12 VDC power supply ("+" to "DET+", "-" to "DET-"). Measure DC current between "DET SIG" and "DET-". The μA readings should match Sensor Test Certificate. Otherwise, contact your distributor.
If Safety Barriers are installed:
Safety Barrier failure.
Resistance between points 1 and 3 of Safety Barrier should be: MTL 7715+: 155 ohms maximum.
MTL 7710+: 85 ohms maximum. Refer to wiring diagram. If the
resistance is higher the fuse inside the safety barrier is blown and the safety barrier should be replaced.
Internal wire inside SLC-220 enclosure is loose.
Check internal wiring (refer to wiring diagram). Re-connect loose wire / connector.
Note:
1. A Power On-Off switch is installed near the Power Supply terminal block for easier maintenance when power should be turned off before making wiring changes. The switch is in series with the 12VDC internal voltage. It doesn’t cut the 100-240 VAC !
2. When the SLC-220 is powered up, it goes through a self-test procedure of a few seconds, which may turn on the lights and relays. Only then the sensors are sampled and the lights, relays and 4-20mA outputs are updated to real values.

10 Appendix B: Connecting a PC to SLC-220
1. Install the SLC-Manager program on the PC according to the instructions supplied in the ReadMe file in the installation CD.
2. A RS-232 cable is supplied, 3 meters long. It is a D-SUB 9 pins male to female, straight wired (pins 2 and 3 are not crossed).
3. A USB-to-Serial converter is also supplied for a PC without a RS-232 port, and includes its' own installation disk. It is essential to install the driver for this converter! Follow the instructions supplied in the CD. Select the UC-232A directory in the CD and run the appropriate “exe” file to install the driver.
4. Plug the USB-to-Serial converter to a free USB port in the PC. The driver will be automatically installed for the specific USB port.
5. Open Device Manager of Windows, identify the ATEN USB to Serial Bridge in “Ports (COM & LPT)”, and verify that it has no error indication. The serial port on which it was installed is clearly shown (COM 10 in the example below):
6. Close (if it was open) and then start SLC-Manager program.
7. From the Entry screen of SLC-Manager click on Communication Settings and then click Serial Port Settings.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
74
8. Set the parameters as shown below, starting with the serial port (COM) that was identified in step 4:
9. Click on Advanced even if the parameters are correct, then click Save.
10. Now the SLC-220 will be able to connect to the PC without errors.

11 Appendix C: Updating SLC-220 Firmware
1. Connect the PC RS-232 serial port (or through the USB-to-Serial converter) to the "PC" connector of SLC-220.
2. Power on the SLC-220. Run the SLC-Manager PC program.
3. Assuming there is communication between the SLC-Manager and SLC-220: Check the Serial Port Settings under Communication Settings of the SLC-Manager PC program and see to which serial port it is connected to.
4. Save the settings by Save to PC button, and then close the SLC-Manager program.
5. Unzip the SLC-220 Update ZIP file that was sent for updating the SLC-220 Main board.
6. Turn SLC-220 power off, wait 5 seconds, and then turn power on again.
7. Run the update SLC-x.x.bat file.
8. A black background screen will open and prompt to enter the number of the PC serial port. For example, if it is COM1 then type 1 and then <Enter>.
9. The update will start by prompting "programming main.txt via COM1", and the message "DONE" will appear at the end.
Press any key to close the window.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
76
10. Turn SLC-220 power off, wait 5 seconds, and then turn power on again. Run the SLC­Manager PC program and verify that the version (shown right to the Leakwise logo) is correct.
11. Load from PC the saved settings, and then perform Save to SLC.
12. Verify that the settings are correct in all SLC-Manager screens. Click Change Parameters in each screen, including Advanced screens, and check if there are parameters in red or blue color. If yes (except Sensor Name), do a Save to SLC again. Finally, verify that the system is operating correctly.
Note:
1. The repeating lines stating “modbus error RX_TIMEOUT” are a normal behavior during the initial communication between the PC and the SLC-220. The “RX Password: DONE” line and then “Changing baud rate…” indicate a successful
connection to the Main board.
SLC-220 User Guide Rev 2.0 June 2018
77
2. In some cases, the update process can fail. In this case turn SLC-220 power off and then on, and run the batch file again.
The indication of update failure is a line “RX Password: FAIL(xx)#n” repeating 5 times after the lines “RX Password: DONE”.
If this happens, the update can be forced by first installing a temporary jumper between pins 3 and 4 of connector J5 (JTAG, located below pin 1 of TB4).
Procedure:
a. Turn power off. b. Install the jumper. Make sure to short only pins 3 and 4 of J5. It is possible to
borrow a two-point jumper from an Outputs board.
c. Turn power on. d. Run the batch file on the PC. It should succeed now. e. Turn power off. f. Remove the jumper from J5 (If taken from an Outputs board, return the jumper to
the Outputs board).
g. Turn power on. h. Verify the firmware version with SLC-Manager.
A picture showing where to install the jumper:
