PENBERTHY MODEL MGT-362 LEVEL MEASUREMENT TRANSMITTER
INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 System description
The Model MGT-362 level transmitter is
designed to be used in conjunction with a
Multiview™ liquid level meter. It measures the
liquid level in a process vessel by detecting
the position of the float in the Multiview™
communicating chamber. The float's position is
then relayed by the electronics via a 4 to 20 mA
output signal.
Specifically, the Model MGT-362 is a loop
powered level measurement transmitter. As
the magnet located in the float closes a group
of reed switches the divided resistance of the
network changes. The electronics located in the
transmitter monitor this change in resistance
and alter the output current proportionally.
As the float ascends, each reed switch
encountered will provide a higher voltage
output than the previous switch. Therefore,
asthe float rises the loop current increases.

3 INSTALLATION
3.1 Unpacking
Upon receiving the Model MGT-362 level
transmitter, check all components carefully
for damage incurred in shipping. If damage
is evident or suspected, do not attempt
installation.
Notify the carrier immediately and request a
damage inspection. Check each item against
the packing list.
3.2 Mounting the transmitter (for side
connected Multiview™)
1. Measure the distance from the top of the
indicator on the magnetic level meter to the
top of the communicating chamber. Record
this distance. If the mounting clamp does
not clear the indicator:
2. Loosen the clamps holding the indicator
to the communicating chamber. The
clamps that will be used to mount the
ModelMGT-362 must pass between the
indicator housing and the communicating
chamber.
3. Mount the Model MGT-362 so the top of
the sensor cap is below the bottom side
connection and the bottom of the seal-off
is above the upper side connection. For
optimal installation, make the distance
between your reference points on the
ModelMGT-362 sensor and the side
connections the same. Use the clamps
supplied to secure the sensor to the
communicating chamber. The upper clamp
should be above the upper side connection
and the lower clamp should be below the
bottom side connection. Never clamp
directly on the sensing tube. If the indicator
clamps were loosened:
4. Adjust the position of the indicator so that
the distance from the top of the housing to
the top of the communicating chamber is
the same as in Step 1. Tighten the clamps
for the indicator.

3.3 Mounting the transmitter (for end
connected Multiview™)
1. Measure the distance from the top of the
indicator on the magnetic level meter to the
top of the communicating chamber. Record
this distance. If the mounting clamp does
not clear the indicator:
2. Loosen the clamps holding the indicator
to the communicating chamber. The
clamps that will be used to mount the
ModelMGT-362 must pass between the
indicator housing and the communicating
chamber.
3. Mount the Model MGT-362 so the bottom
of the seal-off is four inches above the top
of the indicator. Use the clamps supplied
to secure the sensor to the communicating
chamber. Never clamp directly on the
sensing tube. If the indicator clamps were
loosened:
4. Adjust the position of the indicator so that
the distance from the top of the housing to
the top of the communicating chamber is
the same as in Step 1. Tighten the clamps
for the indicator.
3.4 Installation
1. If you are using conduit for the transmitter
wiring use a conduit seal with a drain or
a drip-loop to prevent condensate from
entering the housing. Condensate can cause
electrical shorts.
The transmitter housing has a ½" NPTF
connection for the wiring conduit.
3.5 Wiring the transmitter (integral mounted
units)
The sensor is pre-wired to the electronics
assembly at the factory. All that is necessary is
to connect your power supply.
1. Connect the positive (+) lead from your loop
power supply to TB2 (+) and the negative
(-)lead to TB2 (-). (See Figure 2)
4 SET-UP
4.1 Calibration
The Model MGT-362 is factory calibrated for
the corresponding Multiview™ unit. However,
if necessary the Model MGT-362 may be bench
calibrated using the float or the calibration
magnet (supplied). The following procedures
require that power be applied to the unit with
the cover removed.
WARNING
'Live' electrical circuits can ignite flammable
gases. Be sure that the unit is properly grounded
and that a suitable intrinsically safe barrier has
been installed between the power supply and this
unit. Failure to use a barrier can result in severe
personal injury or property damage.
1. Turn off power to the unit.
2. Remove the housing cover and check to see
that all wires have been properly installed.
3. Disconnect the positive (+) loop wire from
TB2. Connect this wire to the positive lead
of a millimeter. Connect the negative lead of
your millimeter to TB2 (+). (See Figure 2)
4. Connect the positive (+) lead of a digital
voltmeter to TP1 on the circuit board. Connect
the negative (-) lead of a digital voltmeter to
TP2 on the circuit board. (See Figure 2)
5. Lower the liquid level in the vessel to the
'zero' point. For bench calibration place the
float or calibration magnet on the sensing
element at the zero point.
6. Turn the NULL, SPAN and OFFSET
potentiometers (R16, R15, and R14) fully
counter clockwise. (See Figure 2)
7. Apply power to the unit. The millimeter
should read 4 mA or less. If not, contact the
factory. If the millimeter reads over 20 mA
then the float or calibration magnet may not
be in proximity to the sensor or the sensor
wires are not properly connected at TB1.
Reposition the float or inspect the wiring.
3.6 Wiring the transmitter (remote mounted
units)
1. Connect the red, green and black sensor
wires to TB1. (See Figure 2)
2. Attach the positive (+) lead from your loop
power supply to TB2 (+) and the negative (-)
lead to TB2 (-). (see Figure 2)
3. The cable connecting the sensor and
transmitter should not exceed 50 feet
in length. Beldon cable #85240 is
recommended for connecting the sensor to
the transmitter.

INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
8. The NULL potentiometer is properly set as
part of the factory calibration and should not
require any further adjustment.
CAUTION
Should the NULL require adjustment; care must
be taken to ensure that the potentiometer is not
over-ranged. The NULL potentiometer should be
set with the liquid in the vessel set to the 'zero'
point. A digital voltmeter should be connected
to test points TP1 (+) and TP2 (-). Slowly turn the
NULL potentiometer so that the reading on the
voltmeter approaches a reading of 0.0 volts. At
some point (usually within 0.1 Volts) the reading
on the meter will no longer respond to any
adjustment of the NULL potentiometer. At this
point, turn the NULL potentiometer back slightly,
so that the potentiometer is at the threshold of
meter response. The reading does not have to be
exactly 0.00 Volts.
Any additional adjustment of the NULL
potentiometer beyond the point described
above will decrease the available gain of the
current loop and hinder proper calibration.
9. Turn the OFFSET potentiometer (R14)
clockwise so that the millimeter reads 4mA
± 0.05mA. (See Figure 2)
10. Raise the liquid level to the highest possible
level. For bench calibration place the
float at the point on the sensing element
corresponding to 100% level.
11. Turn the SPAN potentiometer (R15)
clockwise so that the millimeter reads
20mA ± 0.05mA. (See Figure 2)
12. Lower the float or calibration magnet to
the 75%, 50% and 25% level. Verify that
the output goes to 16mA, 12mA, and 8mA
respectively.
13. Disconnect the power. Remove the
voltmeter and the millimeter from the unit.
Reconnect the positive (+) lead from the
power supply to TB2 (+). (See Figure 2)
