2.5 Wiring

Caution: All HART versions of the ECLIPSE Model 705 transmitter
operate at voltages of 11–36 VDC. Higher voltage will damage the transmitter.
Wiring between the power supply and the ECLIPSE transmitter should be made using 18–22 AWG shielded twisted pair instrument cable. Within the transmitter enclosure, connections are made to the terminal strip and the ground connections. The directions for wiring the ECLIPSE transmitter depend on the application:
• General Purpose or Non-incendive (Cl I, Div. 2)
• Intrinsically Safe
• Explosion Proof
WARNING! Explosion hazard. Do not disconnect equipment unless
power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.

2.5.1 General Purpose or Non-Incendive (Cl I, Div. 2)

A general purpose installation does not have flammable media present. Areas rated non-incendive (Cl I, Div. 2) have flammable media present only under abnormal conditions. No special electrical connections are required.
Wiring Diagram
Caution: If flammable media is contained in the vessel, the trans-
mitter must be installed per Cl I, Div. 1 standards of area classification.
To install General Purpose or Non-Incendive wiring:
1. Remove the cover to the wiring compartment of the trans­mitter. Install the conduit plug in the unused opening. Use PTFE tape/sealant to ensure a liquid-tight connection.
2. Install a conduit fitting and pull the supply wires.
3. Connect shield to an earth ground at power supply.
4. Connect an earth ground wire to the nearest green ground screw (not shown in illustration).
5. Connect the positive supply wire to the (+) terminal and the negative supply wire to the (-) terminal.
6. Replace the cover to the wiring compartment of the transmitter.

An intrinsically safe (IS) installation potentially has flam­mable media present. An approved IS barrier must be installed in the non-hazardous (safe) area. See Agency Drawing – Intrinsically Safe Installation, Section 3.4.2.
To install Intrinsically Safe wiring:
1. Make sure the IS barrier is properly installed in the safe area (refer to local plant or facility procedures). Complete the wiring from the barrier to the ECLIPSE transmitter.
2. Remove the cover to the wiring compartment of the trans­mitter. Install the conduit plug in the unused opening. Use PTFE tape/sealant to ensure a liquid-tight connection.
3. Install a conduit fitting and pull the supply wires.
4. Connect shield to an earth ground at power supply.
5. Connect an earth ground wire to the nearest green ground screw (not shown in illustration).
6. Connect the positive supply wire to the (+) terminal and the negative supply wire to the (-) terminal.
7. Replace the cover to the wiring compartment of the transmitter.
G.P./I.S./Explosion Proof Model

2.5.3 Explosion Proof

Explosion Proof (XP) is a method of designing equipment for installation in hazardous areas. A hazardous location is an area in which flammable gases or vapors are, or may be, present in the air in quantities sufficient to produce explo­sive or ignitable mixtures. The wiring for the transmitter must be contained in Explosion Proof conduit extending into the safe area. Due to the specialized design of the ECLIPSE transmitter, no Explosion Proof conduit fitting (EY seal) is required within 18" of the transmitter. An Explosion Proof conduit fitting (EY seal) is required between the hazardous and safe areas. See Agency Specifications, Section 3.4.1.
To install Explosion Proof wiring:
1. Install Explosion Proof conduit from the safe area to the conduit connection of the ECLIPSE transmitter (refer to local plant or facility procedures).
2. Remove the cover to the wiring compartment of the transmitter.
3. Connect shield to an earth ground at the power supply.
4. Connect an Earth ground wire to the nearest green ground screw per local electrical code (not shown in illustration).

The ECLIPSE transmitter comes configured from the factory but can be reconfigured easily in the shop (disregard error message due to unattached probe). Bench configuration provides a convenient and efficient way to set up the transmitter before going to the tank site to complete the installation.
Before configuring the transmitter, collect the operating parameters information (refer to Section 1.1.2). Power up the transmitter on the bench and follow through the step­by-step procedures for the menu-driven transmitter display.
Information on configuring the transmitter using a HART communicator is given in Configuration Using HART, Section 2.7.
Information on configuring the transmitter using
OUNDATION fieldbus is given in Section 2.8.

2.6.1 Operating Parameters

Some key information is needed to calibrate the ECLIPSE transmitter. Complete the configuration information table in Section 1.1.2.

2.6.2 Setting Up for Bench Configuration

The ECLIPSE transmitter can be configured at a test bench by connecting a 24 VDC power supply directly to the transmitter terminals as shown in the accompanying diagram. An optional digital multimeter is shown if cur­rent measurements are desired.
NOTE: Current measurements taken at these test points is an
approximate value. Accurate current readings should be taken with the digital multimeter in series with the loop.
1. When using a HART communicator for configuration, a minimum 250 line load resistance is required. See the HART communicator manual for more information.
2. The transmitter can be configured without the probe. (Disregard the error message due to the unattached probe.)
3. After entering the last value, allow 10 seconds before removing power from the transmitter. This allows the transmitter to store values.

2.6.3 Transmitter Display and Keypad

Enter
Down
Up
The ECLIPSE transmitter has an optional liquid crystal display (LCD) capable of showing two lines of 8 characters each. Transmitter measurements and configuration menu screens are shown on the LCD.
The transmitter default display is the measurement screen. It cycles every 5 seconds to display STATUS, LEVEL, %OUTPUT, and LOOP information (LEVEL, %OUTPUT, and STATUS for Fieldbus version). The transmitter defaults to this display after 5 minutes if no keystrokes are sensed.
The keypad has three arrows used to scroll through the dis­plays and to calibrate the transmitter. The Up and Down Arrow ( ) keys and the Enter ( ) key.

(noted by an exclamation point to the next step of the as the last character in the top configuration program. display line).

2.6.4 Password Protection (Default = 0)

The ECLIPSE transmitter is password protected to restrict access to certain portions of the menu structure that affect the operation of the system. When the proper password is entered, an exclamation point (!) appears as the last charac­ter of the first line of the display. The password can be changed to any numerical value up to 255. The password is required whenever configuration values are changed.
The default user password installed in the transmitter at the factory is 0. The last step in the configuration menu pro­vides the option to enter a new password. With a password of 0, the transmitter is no longer password protected and any value in the menu can be adjusted without entering a confirming password, except diagnostic values.
20
NOTE: If the password is not known, the menu item New Password
displays an encrypted value representing the present pass­word. Call the factory with this encrypted value to determine the present password.

The parameter referred to as Lvl Ofst in the ECLIPSE menu is the desired level reading when liquid surface is at the end of the probe. The ECLIPSE transmitter is shipped from the factory with Lvl Ofst set to 0. With this configuration, all measurements are referenced from the bottom of the probe. See Example 1.
Example 1 (Lvl Ofst = 0 as shipped from factory):
Application calls for a 72-inch NPT Coaxial probe in water with the bottom of the probe 10 inches above the bottom of the tank. The user wants the 4 mA point at 24 inches and the 20 mA point at 60 inches as referenced from the bottom of the probe.
Example 1
Example 2
In those applications in which it is desired to reference all measurements from the bottom of the vessel, the value of Lvl Ofst should be changed to the distance between the bottom of the probe and the bottom of the vessel as shown in Example 2.
Example 2:
Application calls for a 72-inch NPT coaxial probe in water with the bottom of the probe 10 inches above the bottom of the tank. The user wants the 4 mA point at 24 inches and the 20 mA point at 60 inches as referenced from the bottom of the tank.
When the ECLIPSE transmitter is mounted in a chamber/bridle, it is usually desirable to configure the unit with the 4 mA (0%) point at the lower process connection and the 20 mA (100%) point at the upper process connection. The span is the center-to-center dimension. In this case, a negative Lvl Ofst needs to be entered. In doing so, all measurements are then referenced at a point up on the probe as shown in Example 3.
57-600 Eclipse®Guided Wave Radar Transmitter
Example 3
Example 3:
Application calls for a 48-inch cage-coaxial flanged probe measuring water in a chamber with the bottom of the probe 6 inches below the lower process connection. The user wants the 4 mA point to be 0 inches at the bottom process connection and the 20 mA point to be 30 inches at the top process connection.

2.6.7 Strapping Table Description

The Model 705 is available with a 20-point custom strap­ping table. Up to 20 pairs of Level—Volume points can be entered to linearize the 4-20 mA output for odd-shaped vessels.
There are two ways to enter data into the strapping table.
Procedure 1 (this method is the most common):
1. Ensure that “Level and Volume” is selected as the Measurement Type (parameter 8 in table 2.6.5.2).
2. Ensure that the correct Level Units and Volume Units are chosen. (Parameters 9 and 12 in table 2.6.5.2).
3. Scroll down to the StrapTbl (parameter 13 in table 2.6.5.2), press enter. Pt01Lvl is displayed.
4. Press Enter, then enter the desired level for Point 1 in the strapping table and press enter.
5. Enter corresponding volume for Point 1 in the strapping table (shown as Pt01Vol on the LCD) and then press enter.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for remaining points.
NOTES: 1. All twenty strapping table points do not have to be used
(unused points should be left at “0”).
2. Strapping table point values can be entered or changed in any order.
3. All strapping table points must be monotonic and sequential. In other words, each point must be larger than the one before. If a non-monotonic entry is made, the strapping length will stop at that entry.
Procedure 2:
The ECLIPSE Model 705 transmitter also allows the level points to be entered automatically.
As above, a twenty-point table is available. However, with this procedure, the user can allow the Model 705 to use the present level as the strapping table entry.
1. Scroll down to the Strapping Table parameter and press enter, Pt01Lvl is displayed.
2. Press and hold the ENTER button, then press the UP arrow at the same time. (The present level reading is now captured and entered into the strapping table.) Press enter and the display shows Pt01Vol.
34
3. Enter the corresponding volume and press enter.
4. Add a known liquid volume to the vessel.
5. For the remaining points, add a known liquid volume to vessel and repeat steps 2 to 3.

Control
Room
Display
Power Supply
Current Meter
A HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) remote unit, such as a HART communicator, can be used to provide a communication link to the ECLIPSE transmitter. When connected to the control loop, the same system measurement readings shown on the transmitter are shown on the communicator. The communicator can also be used to configure the transmitter.
The HART communicator may need to be updated to include the ECLIPSE software (Device Descriptions). Contact your local HART Service Center for additional information.

2.7.1 Connections

A HART communicator can be operated from a remote location by connecting it to a remote junction or by con­necting it directly to the terminal block in the electronics housing of the ECLIPSE transmitter.
HART uses the Bell 202 frequency shift keying technique of high-frequency digital signals. It operates on the 4–20 mA loop and requires 250 load resistance. A typical connection between a communicator and the ECLIPSE transmitter is shown at left.

2.7.2 Display Menu

A typical communicator display is an 8-line by 21-character LCD. When connected, the top line of each menu displays the model (Model 705 3.x) and its tag number or address. Usually the bottom line of each menu is reserved for software­defined function keys (F1–F4). For detailed operating infor­mation, refer to the instruction manual provided with the HART communicator.
The ECLIPSE transmitter online menu trees are shown in the following illustration. Open the menu by pressing the alphanumeric key 1, Device Setup, to display the second­level menu.

2.8 FOUNDATION fieldbus™Digital Communications

2.8.1 Description

FOUNDATION fieldbus is a digital communications system that serially interconnects devices in the field. A Fieldbus system is similar to a Distributed Control System (DCS) with two exceptions:
• Although a Fieldbus system can use the same physical wiring as an existing 4–20 mA device, Fieldbus devices are not connected point-to-point, but rather are multidropped on a single pair of wires (referred to as a segment).
• Fieldbus is a system that allows the user to distribute control across a network. Fieldbus devices are smart and actually maintain control over the system.
Unlike 4–20 mA analog installations in which the two wires carry a single variable (the varying 4–20 mA current), a digital communications scheme such as Fieldbus considers the two wires as a network. The network can carry many process variables as well as other information. The ECLIPSE Model 705FF transmitter is a F
OUNDATION fieldbus regis-

2.8.2 Benefits

The benefits of Fieldbus can be found throughout all phases of an installation:
1. Design/Installation: Connecting multiple devices to a single
pair of wires means less wire and fewer I/O equipment. Initial Engineering costs are also reduced because the
Fieldbus Foundation
requires interoperability, defined as “the ability to operate multiple devices in the same system, regardless of manufacturer, without a loss of functionality.”
OUNDATION fieldbus devices must be tested for
All F interoperability by the Fieldbus Foundation. MAGNETROL Model 705FF device registration information can be found at www.fieldbus.org.
2. Operation: With control now taking place within the
devices in the field, better loop performance and control are the result. A Fieldbus system allows for multiple variables to be brought back from each device to the control room for additional trending and reporting.
3. Maintenance: The self-diagnostics residing in the smart
field devices minimizes the need to send maintenance personnel to the field.

2.8.3 Device Configuration

Device Descriptions
The function of a Fieldbus device is determined by the arrangement of a system of blocks defined by the Fieldbus Foundation. The types of blocks used in a typical User Application are described as follows:
Resource Block describes the characteristics of the Fieldbus device such as the device name, manufacturer, and serial number.
Transducer Blocks contain information such as calibration date and sensor type. They are used to connect the sensor to the input function blocks.
Function Blocks are built into the Fieldbus devices as needed to provide the desired control system behavior. The input and output parameters of function blocks can be linked over the Fieldbus. There can be numerous function blocks in a single User Application.
An important requirement of Fieldbus devices is the inter­operability concept mentioned above. Device Description (DD) technology is used to achieve this interoperability. The DD provides extended descriptions for each object and provides pertinent information needed by the host system.
DDs are similar to the drivers that your personal computer (PC) uses to operate peripheral devices connected to it. Any Fieldbus host system can operate with a device if it has the proper DDs for that device.
The most recent DD and Common File Format (CFF) files can be found on the MAGNETROL web site at magnetrol.com or fieldbus.org.

2.8.4 Intrinsically Safe

H1 supports Intrinsic Safety (IS) applications with bus powered devices. To accomplish this, an IS barrier is placed between the power supply in the safe area and the device in the hazardous area.
H1 also supports the Fieldbus Intrinsically Safe Concept (FISCO) model which allows more field devices in a network. The FISCO model considers the capacitance and inductance of the wiring to be distributed along its entire length. The stored energy during a fault will be less and more devices are permitted on a pair of wires. Instead of the conservative entity model, which only allows about 90 mA of current, the FISCO model allows a maximum of 110 mA for Class II C installations and 240 mA for Class II B installations.

3.0 Reference Information

This section presents an overview of the operation of the ECLIPSE Guided Wave Radar Level Transmitter, information on troubleshooting common problems, listings of agency approvals, lists of replacement and recommended spare parts, and detailed physical, functional, and performance specifications.

3.1 Description

ECLIPSE is a loop-powered two-wire, 24 VDC, level transmitter
based on the concept of Guided Wave Radar. Guided Wave Radar, or Micropower Impulse Radar (MIR), is a revolutionary, new level measurement technology.
The ECLIPSE electronics are housed in an ergonomic hous-
ing comprised of two tandem compartments angled at a 45-degree angle for ease of wiring and calibration. These two compartments connect via an explosion proof and watertight feed-through.

3.2 Theory of Operation

3.2.1 Micropower Impulse Radar

MIR (Micropower Impulse Radar) combines TDR (time domain reflectometry), ETS (equivalent time sampling) and modern low power circuitry. This synthesis of technologies brings to the level market a high-speed radar circuit (speed of light transmission) at a small fraction of the cost of conven­tional radar. The electromagnetic pulses are propagated via a waveguide that yields a system many times more efficient than through-air radar.

Time
The ECLIPSE Model 705, when used with the Model 7xT coaxial probe, is a transmitter capable of measuring both an upper level and an interface level. It is required that the upper liquid have a dielectric constant between 1.4 and 5 and the two liquids have a difference in dielectric constants greater than 10. A typical application would be oil over water, with the upper layer of oil being non-conductive with a dielectric constant of approximately 2 and the lower layer of water being very conductive with a dielectric constant of approximately 80. This interface measurement can only be
accomplished when the dielectric constant of the upper medium is lower than the dielectric constant of the lower medium.
ECLIPSE Guided Wave Radar is based upon the technology of TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry). TDR utilizes pulses of electromagnetic energy transmitted down a wave guide (probe). When a pulse reaches a liquid surface that has a higher dielectric constant than the air (dielectric constant of 1) in which it is traveling, the pulse is reflected and ultra high speed timing circuitry provides an accurate measure of liq­uid level. Even after the pulse is reflected from the upper surface, some of the energy continues down the length of the probe through the upper liquid. The pulse is again reflected when it reaches the higher dielectric lower liquid (refer to figure at left). Since the speed of the signal through the upper liquid is dependent on the dielectric constant of the medium in which it is traveling, the dielectric constant of the upper liquid must be known to accurately determine the interface level.
Interface Detection
57-600 Eclipse®Guided Wave Radar Transmitter
Knowing the time between the first and second reflections, along with knowing the upper layer dielectric constant, the thickness of the upper layer can be determined.
In order to properly process the reflected signals, the Model 705 is specified for those applications where the thickness of the upper layer is greater than 2 inches. The maximum upper layer is limited to the length of the Model 7xT probe, which is available in lengths up to 20 feet.
The Model 7x7 twin rod flexible probe allows interface operation up to 40 feet.
Emulsion Layers
As emulsion (rag) layers can decrease the strength of the reflected signal, the ECLIPSE Model 705 is recommended for applications that have clean, distinct layers. The ECLIPSE Model 705 will tend to detect the top of the emulsion layer. Contact the factory for application assistance regarding emulsion layers.

3.2.3 Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR)

TDR uses pulses of electromagnetic (EM) energy to mea­sure distances or levels. When a pulse reaches a dielectric discontinuity (created by media surface), part of the energy is reflected. The greater the dielectric difference, the greater the amplitude (strength) of the reflection.
Although TDR is new to the industrial level measurement industry, it has been used in the telephone, computer, and power transmission industries for years. In these industries, it is used to successfully find wire or cable breaks and shorts. An EM pulse is sent through the wire, traveling unimpeded until it finds a line break or short. A reflection is then returned from the break enabling a timing circuit to pinpoint the location.
In the ECLIPSE transmitter, a waveguide with a characteristic impedance in air is used as a probe. When part of the probe is immersed in a material other than air, there is lower impedance due to the increase in the dielectric. When an EM pulse is sent down the probe and meets the dielectric discontinuity, a reflection is generated.

3.2.4 Equivalent Time Sampling (ETS)

ETS (Equivalent Time Sampling) is used to measure the high speed, low power EM energy. ETS is a critical key in the application of TDR to vessel level measurement tech­nology. The high speed EM energy (1000 ft/µs) is difficult to measure over short distances and at the resolution required in the process industry. ETS captures the EM signals in real time (nanoseconds) and reconstructs them in equivalent time (milliseconds), which is much easier to measure with today’s technology.
ETS is accomplished by scanning the waveguide to collect thousands of samples. Approximately 8 scans are taken per second; each scan gathers more than 30,000 samples.

3.3.3 Troubleshooting Applications

Film Coating
Bridging
Low Dielectric Medium (e.g., oil)
High Dielectric Medium (e.g., water)
Emulsion Layer
There are numerous causes for application problems. Media buildup on the probe and stratification are covered here. Media buildup on the probe is not a problem in most cases—ECLIPSE circuitry typically works very effectively. Media buildup should be viewed as two types—Film Coating and Bridging. A twin rod probe can be utilized when minor film coating is a possibility. For more extreme buildup, utilize the Model 7xF or 7x1 Single Rod Probes.
3.3.3.1 Model 705 (Level Application)
Continuous Film Coating
The most typical of coating problems where the media forms a continuous coating on the probe. ECLIPSE will continue to measure effectively with some small degrada­tion in performance. A problem can develop if the product begins to build up on the spacers that separate the probe elements. High dielectric media (e.g., water-based) will cause the greatest error.
Bridging
Media that is viscous or solid enough to form a clog, or bridge, between the elements causes the greatest degrada­tion in performance. High dielectric media (e.g., water­based) will show as level at the location of the bridging.
Stratification/Interface
The standard Model 705 ECLIPSE transmitter is designed to measure the first air/media interface it detects. However, a low dielectric over a high dielectric application can cause a measurement problem and cause the electronics to trigger on the high dielectric medium that lies beneath the low dielectric medium. Select the Fixed Threshold option to read the upper medium. Example: Oil over water.
3.3.3.2 Model 705 (Interface Application)
It is not uncommon for interface applications to have an emulsion layer form between the two media. This emulsion layer may pose problems for Guided Wave Radar as it may decrease the strength of the reflected signal. Since the prop­erties of this emulsion layer are difficult to quantify, appli­cations with emulsion layer should be avoided with ECLIPSE.

Obstruction
Nozzles
• 2" Diameter minimum
• Ratio of Diameter: Length should be >1:1
• Do not use Pipe Reducers (restriction)
Coating Buildup
Nozzles
Nozzles can create false echoes that can cause diagnostic messages and/or errors in measurement. If EOP HIGH or EOP LOW is displayed when first configuring the instrument:
1. Ensure the PROBE LENGTH as entered in the software is equal to the actual probe length as noted on the name­plate. This value must be changed if the probe is cut shorter from the original length.
2. Increase the Blocking Distance value until the message is eliminated; 20mA point may need to be lowered.
3. Increase the DIELECTRIC RANGE a small amount to aid in reducing echoes in nozzle. Increasing the DIELECTRIC setting reduces the gain, which may cause instrument to lose level of lower dielectric media; consult factory.

beams, ladder rungs
beams, concrete walls
Obstructions
If the level reading repeatedly locks on to a specific level higher than the actual level, it may be caused by a metallic obstruction. Obstructions in the vessel (e.g., pipes, ladders) that are located close to the probe may cause the instrument to show them as level.
1. Refer to the Probe Clearance Table
2. Increase the DIELECTRIC RANGE a small amount to aid in reducing echoes in nozzle. Increasing the DIELECTRIC setting reduces the gain, which may cause instrument to lose level of lower dielectric media; consult factory.
Coating/Buildup
The Model 705 and Single Rod probe were designed to operate effectively in the presence of media building up. Some expected error may be generated based upon the following factors:
Dielectric of the media that created the coating
Thickness of the coating
Length of the coating above the present level
Stratification/Interface
The Model 705 and Single Rod probe should not be used in applications where media can separate and stratify creat­ing an interface application (e.g., water over oil). The cir­cuitry will detect the lower level—the higher dielectric medium (e.g., the water level).

Service Policy
Owners of MAGNETROL controls may request the return of a control or any part of a control for complete rebuilding or replacement. They will be rebuilt or replaced promptly. Controls returned under our service policy must be returned by prepaid transportation. MAGNETROL will repair or replace the control at no cost to the purchaser (or owner) other than transportation if:
1. Returned within the warranty period; and
2. The factory inspection finds the cause of the claim to be covered under the warranty.
If the trouble is the result of conditions beyond our con­trol; or, is NOT covered by the warranty, there will be charges for labor and the parts required to rebuild or replace the equipment.
In some cases it may be expedient to ship replacement parts; or, in extreme cases a complete new control, to replace the original equipment before it is returned. If this is desired, notify the factory of both the model and serial numbers of the control to be replaced. In such cases, credit for the materials returned will be determined on the basis of the applicability of our warranty.
No claims for misapplication, labor, direct or consequen­tial damage will be allowed.
Return Material Procedure
So that we may efficiently process any materials that are returned, it is essential that a “Return Material Authorization” (RMA) number be obtained from the factory prior to the material’s return. This is available through a MAGNETROL local representative or by contacting the factory. Please supply the following information:
1. Company Name
2. Description of Material
3. Serial Number
4. Reason for Return
5. Application
Any unit that was used in a process must be properly cleaned in accordance with OSHA standards, before it is returned to the factory.
A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) must accompany material that was used in any media.
All shipments returned to the factory must be by prepaid transportation.
All replacements will be shipped F.O.B. factory.
