LVCN-302 Features and Overview
Let's say your tank is 112 inches deep, and the transducer range of the sensor you’ve
chosen is 0-5 psi of water. 5 psi equals 138 inches H
located 11 inches off the bottom of the tank. With 51 inches of water in the tank you are
cavitating the pump, and at 108 inches of water you are facing probable flooding.
The goal is to maintain the liquid level between 90 and 65 inches using LVCN-302. The
following steps should be taken in order to display a 50 to 110 inch "window" of the tank,
while maintaining a liquid level range of 90 to 65 inches. High and low alarm output circuits
will be activated at 105 and 55 inches.
The
Initial Set-up in Eight Easy Steps
describes in detail how to program LVCN-302 for your
specific application. To accomplish the above
installation, you would enter the following:
Transducer Range 138.0 inches H2O
Transducer Height 11.0
Upper Limit of Window 110.0
Lower Limit of Window 50.0
High Alarm/Fault Level 105.0
Sump ON Level 90.0
Sump OFF Level 65.0
Low Alarm/Fault Level 55.0

Security Levels / Selecting and Accessing Data
Operator access to data modifications has three modes of security: View Only, Set Point
Changes Allowed and Programming. Each mode is selected from the back of the unit with a DIP
switch setting.
ON
Programming Mode
This mode, #1 ON, allows you to
change all eight programmable
settings. It is used for initial set-up
and installation.
Set Point Changes Allowed
This mode, #2 ON, allows you to
change all four set points: the High &
Low Alarms, Make-up ON & Make-up
OFF.
View Only Mode
This mode, ALL OFF, prevents any
changes from being made. However,
all the information, except the
transducer range and transducer
offset, is available
by pressing SELECT.
