LEVEL CONTROLLER OVERVIEW

FIGURE 2-1. Typical Level Controller Installation Site.

The Model 3095 Multivariable Level Controller is a multivariable, microprocessor-based, analog and digital output device for use in single loop, level process applications.

The Level Controller directly measures differential pressure (DP) and computes a separate process variable that represents level in a tank above a reference point.

The Level Controller uses the level variable in a control function to compute a control output value. The control function is a PID algorithm whose output is a 4–20 mA analog signal. A digital representation of the value of the 4–20 mA output may be obtained via HART digital communications.

Because the Level Controller is a multivariable device, optional process variables can be measured and obtained as a secondary HART process variable. The process variables available via HART are level, DP, control output (CO), and process temperature (PT).

Level Controller Overview and Installation

Figure 2-1 illustrates a single loop level control system. The single control loop consists of:

• A level process.

• A Level Controller with a 4–20 mA control output signal.

• An electrical-to-pneumatic converting device such as a 3311 I/P.

• An optional positioner device to correct for valve displacement before valve variations affect the process.

• An actuator device such as a valve.

Figure 2-2 is a more detailed diagram of the level process depicted in Figure 2-1. The setpoint is the desired process value at which the user wishes to maintain (control) the process. The error between the setpoint and the actual process variable (as measured by the sensor) is used by the controller to determine the value of its output.

The controller output is an electrical current (in mA) which is used by an electrical-to-pneumatic device, such as an I/P, to control the position of a valve. A positioner, which is mechanically connected to the moving part of the valve, automatically adjusts its output pressure in order to maintain a desired position that bears a predetermined relationship to the input signal.

UNPACKING THE LEVEL CONTROLLER

BECOMING FAMILIAR WITH THE LEVEL CONTROLLER

The Level Controller arrives in either one or two shipping containers, depending on the system ordered.

Level Controller

This box contains the Level Controller. If ordered, this package also contains an RTD cable and optional mounting hardware. One Model 3095 Multivariable Level Controller Product Manual is included with each order.

RTD Assembly (Optional)

This box contains the optional Series 68 or Series 78 RTD Assembly and the Sensor Wiring Instruction Sheet.

When you unpack the Level Controller:

1. Place the shipping containers on a secure bench and open them, taking care not to damage the contents.

2. Review the packing list to verify that all equipment was received.

3. Inspect the equipment and report any shipping damage to the carrier.

Level Controller Overview and Installation

BENCH CONFIGURATION

Failure Mode Alarm vs. Saturation Output Values

Write Protect and Failure Mode Alarm Jumpers

Before mounting the Level Controller in the field, the controller can be configured on the bench using a Model 275 HART Communicator.

NOTE

For bench configuration, a jumper must be installed across the output terminals.

Failure mode alarm output levels differ from the output values that occur when applied pressure is outside the range points. When pressure is outside the range points, the analog output continues to track the input pressure until reaching the saturation value listed below; the output does not exceed the listed saturation value regardless of the applied pressure. For example, for pressures outside the 4–20 range points, the output saturates at 3.9 mA or 20.8 mA.

When the controller diagnostics detect a failure, the analog output is set to a specific alarm value that differs from the saturation value to allow for proper troubleshooting.

Level 4–20 mA Saturation Value 4–20 mA Alarm Value

Low 3.9 mA 3.75 mA High 20.8 mA 21.75 mA

These jumpers are both located on the electronics board just inside the electronics housing cover (see Figure 2-5). Set these jumpers during the commissioning stage on the bench to avoid exposing the controller electronics to the plant environment after installation.

Once the controller has been configured, the configuration data can be protected by moving the write protect (security) jumper. When this jumper is installed, the controller does not allow any changes to its configuration memory.

In the event of a critical hardware failure in the controller, the controller automatically drives the analog output either below 3.75 or above 21.75, depending on the position of the failure alarm jumper.

NOTE

This alarm jumper is different from a level measurement alarm condition. As part of its normal operation, the Level Controller continuously monitors its own operation. This automatic diagnostic routine is a timed series of checks repeated continuously.

If the controller determines that a level measurement alarm exists, the controller performs one of the two Mode Shed routines (user selected):

– the controller signal freezes at the current level – the signal switches to a pre-determined mode shed level

See Chapter 4 for additional mode shed information.

When shipped from the factory, the write protect jumper is set to “OFF,” and the alarm jumper is set to “LO.”

Use the following steps to change the jumper settings:

1. If the controller is installed, secure the loop and remove power.

2. Remove the housing cover opposite the field terminal side. Do not remove the instrument cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.

3. Locate the jumper(s) on the output electronics board (see Figure 2-5), then move the jumper(s) to the desired setting.

4. Reattach the housing cover. Metal to metal contact is preferred. Both controller covers must be fully engaged to meet explosionproof requirements.

5. If the controller is installed, reapply power.

The accuracy of a level control measurement depends upon proper installation of the controller and impulse piping. The piping between the process and the controller must accurately transfer the pressure in order to obtain accurate measurements.

Mount the controller close to the process and use a minimum of impulse piping to achieve best accuracy. Keep in mind, however, the need for easy access, safety of personnel, and a suitable controller environment. (Refer to Figure 2-6 for Level Controller dimensions.) In general, install the controller so as to minimize vibration, shock, and temperature fluctuations.

The high pressure side of the level controller must always be plumbed to the bottom of the tank. For open vessels, the low pressure side of the Level Controller should be vented. For closed vessels, the low pressure side must always be plumbed to the top of the tank.

The following sections discuss the factors to consider for a successful Level Controller installation.

EXAMPLE INSTALLATIONS

Open Tanks

Open Tanks with Bubbler

Closed Tanks with Dry Leg

Figure 2-9 illustrates example installations for the Model 3095 Level Controller. “H” and “L” in the examples correspond to the H and L stamped on the Level Controller sensor module and indicate which way the controller is to be installed.

In open vessels a pressure controller mounted near the bottom of the tank will measure the pressure corresponding to the height of the fluid above it.

The connection is made to the high pressure side of the controller. The low pressure side is vented to atmosphere.

Process Connections Options: Impulse piping; one diaphragm seal, (capillary or direct mount) level flange.

A “bubbler” system using a top-mounted controller can be used in open vessels. This system consists of an air supply, a constant flow regulator, a controller, and tube extending down into the vessel.

Air is bubbled through the tube at a constant flow rate. The pressure required to maintain flow is determined by the vertical height of the liquid above the tube opening, process density, and local gravity.

Process Connections Option: Impulse piping,

In closed vessels, the pressure above the liquid will affect the pressure measured at the bottom. The pressure at the bottom of the vessel is determined by the height of the liquid, the density of the liquid, plus the vessel pressure.

Closed Tanks with Wet Leg

To measure true level, the vessel pressure must be subtracted from the measurement. This is accomplished by making a pressure tap at the top of the vessel and connecting this to the low side of a differential pressure controller. Vessel pressure is now equally applied to both the high and low sides of the controller. The resulting differential pressure is determined by liquid height, process density, and specific gravity.

If the gas above the liquid does not condense, the piping for the low side of the controller will remain empty. Calculations for determining the controller height will be the same as those shown for open vessel bottom mounted controllers.

Process Connections Options: Impulse piping; one diaphragm seal (capillary or direct mount); two diaphragm seals, level flange.

If the gas above the liquid condenses, the piping for the low side of the controller will slowly fill up with liquid. To eliminate this potential error, the pipe is purposely filled with a convenient reference fluid.

The reference fluid exerts a head pressure on the low side of the controller.

Process Connections Options: Impulse piping; one diaphragm seal (capillary or direct mount); two diaphragm seals, level flange.

Level Controller Overview and Installation

TAP CONSIDERATIONS

Impulse Piping

When the Level Controller is oriented on its side, the Coplanar™ flange may be mounted to ensure proper venting or draining. Mount the flange so that the drain/vent connections are on the top half of the flange for liquid service.

CAUTION

In elevated temperature services, it is important that temperatures at the Coplanar process flanges not exceed 250 °F (121 °C).

The piping between the process and the controller must accurately transfer the pressure in order to obtain accurate control. In this pressure transfer, there are five possible sources of error: leaks, friction loss (particularly if purging is used), trapped gas in a liquid line, and temperature-induced or other density variation between the legs.

The best location for the Level Controller in relation to the process pipe depends on the process itself. Consider the following guidelines in determining controller location and placement of impulse piping:

• Keep impulse piping as short as possible.

• Slope the impulse piping at least one inch per foot (8 centimeters per meter) upward from the controller toward the process connection for liquid.

• Avoid high points in liquid lines.

• Make sure both impulse legs are the same temperature.

• Use impulse piping large enough to avoid friction effects and prevent blockage.

• Vent all gas from liquid piping legs.

• Avoid purging through the controller.

• Keep corrosive or hot (above 250 °F (121 °C)) process material out of direct contact with the sensor module and flanges.

• Prevent sediment deposits in the impulse piping.

• Avoid conditions that might allow process fluid to freeze within the process flange.

Diaphragm Seals

Because instrument response time is directly proportional to capillary length, and the fill fluid volume in the capillary changes with temperature to affect the output, care must be taken to optimize performance:

• Keep the capillary length as short as possible.

• Mount a controller with one seal at the same level, or below the seal and process connection. Use direct mount when possible.

• In vacuum applications, mount the controller below the lower tap to ensure proper operation. This requirement applies to both oneand two-seal systems.

• Avoid mounting seals and capillaries in direct sunlight.

• Keep the capillary lengths equal when two seals are involved.

• Rezero the controller on a seasonal basis.

• Never attempt to disconnect the seals or capillaries. Doing so will void the warranty.

unique O-ring, as shown below. Each flange adapter is distinguished by its unique groove. Use only the O-ring designed to seal with the corresponding flange adapter.

Use only the O-ring designed to seal with the corresponding flange adapter. Failure to install proper flange adapter O-rings can cause process leaks.

When compressed, Teflon® O-rings tend to cold flow, which aids in their sealing capabilities. Whenever flanges or adapters are removed, visually inspect the Teflon O-rings. Replace them if there are any signs of damage, such as nicks or cuts. If they are undamaged, they can be reused. If the O-rings are replaced, the flange bolts may need to be retorqued after installation to compensate for cold flow. Refer to the process sensor body reassembly procedure on page 5-16.

ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS

FIGURE 2-11. Power Supply Load Limitations.

The signal terminals are located in a compartment of the electronics housing separate from the controller electronics. Figure 2-11 illustrates power supply load limitations for the controller.

The dc power supply should provide power with less than 2% ripple. The total resistance load is the sum of the resistance of the signal leads and the load resistor, actuator, indicator, and related pieces. Note that the resistance of intrinsic safety barriers, if used, must be included.

NOTE

A loop resistance between 250–1100 ohms inclusive is required to communicate with a HART Communicator. With 250 ohms of loop resistance, a power supply voltage of at least 16.5 V dc is required. Quick troubleshooting check: there must be at least 11.0 V dc across the controller terminals.

If a single power supply is used to power more than one Level Controller, the power supply used, and circuitry common to the controllers, should not have more than 20 ohms of impedance at 1200 Hz.

For CSA approval, power supply must not exceed 42.4 V dc.

5. Plug and seal unused conduit connections on the Level Controller housing to avoid moisture accumulation in the terminal side of the housing. The unused conduit opening on the controller housing must be plugged and sealed to meet explosion-proof requirements.

NOTE

If the conduit connections are not sealed, mount the Level Controller with the electrical housing positioned downward for drainage. Conduit should be installed with a drip loop, and the bottom of the drip loop should be lower than the conduit connections or the controller housing.

Install Field Wiring Grounds

Field wiring may be grounded at any one point on the signal loop, or it may be left ungrounded. The negative terminal of the power supply is a recommended grounding point.

The controller case should always be grounded in accordance with national and local electrical codes. The most effective controller case grounding method is direct connection to earth ground with minimal impedance. Methods for grounding the controller case include:

• External Ground Assembly: This assembly is included with the

transient protection terminal block. The External Ground Assembly can also be ordered as a spare part (03031-0398-0001).

• Internal Ground Connection: Inside the FIELD TERMINALS

side of the electronics housing is the Internal Ground Connection screw. This screw is identified by a ground symbol: .

NOTE

The transient protection terminal block does not provide transient protection unless the controller case is properly grounded. Use the above guidelines to ground the controller case.

Do not run the transient protection ground wire with field wiring as the ground wire may carry excessive current if a lighting strike occurs.

Grounding the controller case using threaded conduit connection may not provide sufficient ground.

The Level Controller does not require any bench or field calibration. The differential pressure sensor has been factory calibrated from – URL to + URL.

After installation, a standard level trim (offset and slope) must be completed (see page 4-10).

Section

3 Level Controller Operation

INTRODUCTION

LEVEL VARIABLES AND VALUES

The Model 3095 Multivariable Level Controller is a multi-variable differential pressure transmitter and level controller combined into one instrument. Because external controllers are not needed to operate the Model 3095 Multivariable Level Controller, installation costs are significantly reduced, while accuracy, performance, and reliability of the control loop increases.

Rosemount has designed the Model 3095 Multivariable Level Controller to provide users with the same benefits of stand-alone transmitters and external controllers. This section explains the operation, design, functionality and options of the Level Controller.

The 3095 Level Controller measures differential pressure (DP) and uses that measurement to calculate process level. The level calculation is completed by the sensor microprocessor using the following equation:

Level = (DP

The calculation uses values for density, gravity, and transmitter location compared to the bottom of the vessel, as specified by the operator.

The operator uses the Model 275 HART communicator or AMS to input the following variables:

• Units of measure

• Density

• Gravity (if different from default)

• Upper Range Value (tank height)

• Lower Range Value (recommend bottom of tank, or 0)

• Setpoint

• Setpoint limits (recommend below the top of the tank)

÷ Density × Gravity) + Transmitter Height

The Level Controller assumes a constant density and does not correct for density changes caused by ambient temperature changes.

3-1

Rosemount Model 3095 Multivariable™ Level Controller

Level is the primary variable used by the output board to compare to the user-specified setpoint. The calculated level is converted into a unitless variable based on percentage, which is determined by the Range Values (or, tank height) as specified by the operator.

• Range values should be from the bottom of the tank (0) to the tank height.

• Setpoint Upper Limit should be below the top of the tank to prevent overflow.

The Model 3095 Level Controller uses the proven multi-variable sensor designed for the Rosemount 3095 series multi-variable transmitters.

This multi-variable sensor is designed with Rosemount’s capacitance sensor technology and microprocessor-based sensor correction coefficients delivery for ±0.075% accuracy for the DP sensor.

There is no need to calibrate the DP sensor. All Model 3095 Level Controllers are factory-calibrated from –LRL to +URL.

The Level Controller uses the DP input to calculate the Primary Variable, which is Level. Instead of calibration, the user simply completes a Level Trim after installation of the Level Controller.

Setpoint

The Model 3095 Multivariable Level Controller features a series-type controller for Proportional (P), Proportional and Derivative (PD), Proportional and Integral (PI), and Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control modes.

The controller algorithm:

• Sets the control type (PID)

• Performs Start-up, Control Output, and Mode Shedding

• Activates modes (out-of-service, manual, auto)

• Provides a “bumpless transfer” between mode transitions

• Initiates Setpoint, Rate Limits, and Setpoint Tracking

• Initiates power-up variables

• Initiates Adaptive Bias and Manual Bias

The controller algorithm is updated three times per second. Although the Level Controller can perform several tasks in Auto Mode, some specific tasks must be completed in Manual or Out-of-Service mode. Table 3-1 provides a list of Level Controller tasks and the modes in which those tasks must be performed.

AUTOTUNING

3-4

The Model 3095 Level Controller is available with Rosemount’s Autotuning algorithm, which accurately determines the optimal tuning parameters for a level control loop without operator interaction. The Autotuner algorithm is specified by the “CC” option code in the level controller ordering table.

Improved loop tuning results in superior process control, reduced process variability, an increase in loop performance, and extended control element life. The Autotuner determines the optimal tuning parameters after the user enters the required autotuning setup information.

Autotuner Operation

The Level Controller Autotuner works without any pre-tuning of the control loop. The Autotuner functions under any condition, and does not require a steady-state process.

Use the Model 275 HART Communicator or Asset Management Solutions (AMS) to simply input the required tuning setup parameters, which are:

• Level limits around a setpoint to tune

• Level limits allowable overshoot

• Control output minimum and maximum percentage

• Number of cycles

The Autotuner automatically activates the control element to change the vessel’s level to the minimum and maximum level limits. This activation repeats for the number of cycles and time as specified by the user. As the process level changes, the Level Controller learns the loop’s dynamics: the rate of change level, dead time, and the dynamics of the control element. The Level Controller uses Ziegler-Nichols IMC tuning rules to calculate the optimal tuning processes (process gain, delay, and bias).

The Level Controller informs the user when tuning is completed successfully, and asks the user to accept or reject the calculated tuning parameters. If accepted, the new parameters must then be sent to the Level Controller to be used.

Alpha Adjustment for Tuning

If the Level Controller is not able to successfully calculate new tuning parameters, the Level Controller aborts the Autotune procedure and informs the user of a tuning failure. Common reasons for an unsuccessful Auto-tune include a lack of sufficient time to complete the cycles, or an insufficient allowable overshoot.

To help ensure a successful Autotune,

• Set the High and Low level limits close to the setpoint.

• Ensure that you have allowed a sufficient overshoot.

• Allow for additional cycles for extremely noisy processes; one cycle is usually sufficient for standard applications.

• Allow enough time to complete the number of Auto-tuning cycles selected.

The Level Controller Auto-tuning algorithm features the ability to recalculate the tuning parameters after adjustments were made to the controller. The “Alpha Adjustment Knob” allows users to adjust the controller variables without having to complete a new Autotuning routine.

ADAPTIVE BIAS CONTROL

When to Use Adaptive Bias Control

How ABC Works

Rosemount’s Adaptive Bias Control algorithm is a standard offering with the Model 3095 Level Controller. The Adaptive Bias Control (ABC) algorithm is used when operating in Proportional (P) or Proportional-Derivative (PD) modes. Adaptive Bias Control eliminates limit cycling caused by the control element’s attempts to adjust the level around a setpoint.

ABC is used when the application does not require accurate control around the setpoint. In these applications, standard PID or PI control can result in a large amount of limit cycling as the control element attempts to maintain the level around the setpoint. Excessive limit cycling results in unnecessary control element wear.

The operator uses a 275 HART communicator or AMS to select a maximum and minimum range around the setpoint for ABC. The ABC algorithm restricts the Level Controller’s output to only the proportional response to level changes within the selected ABC region, ignoring any offset. If the level moves beyond the selected ABC region, the ABC algorithm initiates the required control element response that will return the level to the selected ABC region.

By providing a larger allowable level range, ABC reduces the number of required level changes to be made by the control element. Limit cycle elimination reduces control element operation, which may significantly extend the operating life of the control element. In summary, ABC brings the users the benefits of PID control while eliminating limit cycling.

• initiates only the P response to level changes within the upper and lower limits as selected by the user, thus eliminating limit cycling of the control element.

• allows the Level Controller to complete the P response and I response when the level is outside the selected upper and lower limits until the level is again within the specified range.

Rosemount Model 3095 Multivariable™ Level Controller

LOCAL OPERATOR INTERFACE

The Model 3095 Level Controller is available with an optional Local Operator Interface (LOI), which acts as a local indicator and operator interface. The LOI can be configured with the Model 275 HART communicator, AMS, or locally through a set series of adjustments to the Z and S buttons located at the top of the Level Controller housing.

The LOI will always display Level as the Primary Variable (PV). The user may select additional PVs, including:

• Differential Pressure (DP)

• Control Output (CO)

• Process Temperature (PT) (if an external RTD is installed)

If alternative PVs are selected, each PV will display for two seconds before displaying the next PV.

The LOI will always show the current Mode (Auto, Manual, or Out-ofService (OOS)).

If the device experiences a failure, the LOI will flash “FAIL” every two seconds.

The Z and S buttons allow the user to change the Mode and the setpoint, and to select PVs.

• When the display is in operational mode (i.e., automatically scrolling through display data), press any button to begin configuration mode.

• When in configuration mode, press the “Z” button to see the next display in the series. Press the “S” button to perform the action associated with the current display.

• The output adjust display appears only when the controller is in MAN mode.

• If the controller detects no activity for 60 seconds while in configuration mode, the controller reverts back to operational mode.

MODE SHED OPTION

The Mode Shed option allows the Level Controller to maintain control of the process loop in the event of measuring sensor failure.

The Model 3095 Level Controller continuously completes diagnostics of the multi-variable sensor and the controller. If the diagnostics determines that the level measurement is in a failed condition, the controller allows the user to select a “mode shed,” directing the controller to set the control element in a safe position. The Level Controller will remain at the “mode shed” position until the failed signal clears, or, until re-positioned by the user.

If the Level Controller determines that its ability to control the loop is compromised, the unit immediately drives the hardware analog alarm high or low, as selected by the user.

Section

4 Level Controller Configuration

This section describes the tasks involved in configuring the Model 3095 Level Controller.

CONFIGURATION OVERVIEW

Configuring the Level Controller consists of four major tasks:

1. Set Up the Level Calculation: These tasks set up the Level

Controller for the specific process, and include setting process density, level units, controller height, and damping.

2. Configure the Controller: These tasks configure how you want to

control the liquid level process, and include setting range values, control type, control action, ABC, output limits, setpoint, and mode shed options.

3. Perform a Level Trim: This task automatically adjusts the

controller height and process density so that the actual level measurement matches the observed tank level.

4. Tuning the Loop: These tasks set the gain, reset, rate and bias

parameters for the PID equation. The tasks differ depending on whether or not you have purchased the Autotuning feature.

If you completed a Configuration Data Sheet and your Level Controller is factory-configured, tasks 1 and 2 are done; you need only perform a level trim and tune the loop.

NOTE

For bench configuration, a jumper must be installed across the output terminals on the Level Controller terminal block. When bench configuration is complete, remove the jumper before installing the controller in the field.

You can use the Model 275 or any HART host device to configure the Level Controller and perform the other configuration tasks.

The HART Comm. box to the left of each section identifies the corresponding HART fast key sequence. See Appendix A: HART Communicator for additional information.

(manual), AUTO (automatic), or OOS (out-of-service).

• In automatic mode, the controller output is determined by the control function, where a control algorithm sets the control output value.

• In manual mode, the controller output is adjusted by the operator via digital communications or the local operator interface.

• In out-of-service mode, the operator can configure the controller without changing the control signal. The control signal remains fixed at the value when OOS mode was entered until the OOS mode is exited.

The Model 3095 Level Controller is shipped in OOS mode. Before configuring the controller, ensure that the controller is in the

Additional Options

The following options are not required for Level Controller operation.

Set Damping The Level Controller has electronic damping that can change the

response time of the level measurement to smooth the level reading when there are rapid input variations.

Adaptive Bias Control (ABC) Settings

Adaptive Bias Control (ABC) provides a method to create a steady state deadband for the level controller. Once the desired level is obtained, the controller could repeatedly open and close the valve for very small differences between the setpoint and the actual tank level. ABC allows the controller to determine that the level is stable, and to not change the valve position except when a larger difference occurs between the setpoint and the actual tank level. This saves on unnecessary valve wear.

ABC is only available if the control mode is set to P or PD. Bias is modified when ABC is enabled in Auto mode. See page 3-7 for

details about ABC.

Additional Options

The following options are not required for Level Controller operation.

Setpoint Tracking When enabled and in manual mode, setpoint tracking automatically

changes the setpoint to the measured level value. This option is valid in manual (MAN) mode only.

For example, assume that the target setpoint is set to 90 inches when the controller is switched from automatic to manual mode. At the conclusion of manual mode activities, the actual liquid level is now 82 inches. If setpoint tracking is ON, the new target setpoint will automatically change to 82 inches when the operator switches back to automatic mode.

PERFORM A LEVEL TRIM

Trim Level

HART Comm.

6, 1, 1, 6, 2

Performing a level trim is recommended for all field installations. Level trim can be done in OOS and MAN mode; it cannot be done in AUTO mode (see page 4-2).

The level trim process allows the user to calibrate the level calculation against the actual tank level as measured with a sight glass or other visual reference. A level offset trim is normally done at or near the lower level value; a level slope trim is normally done at or near the upper level limit.

The level trim process corrects for offset and/or slope errors by adjusting the controller height and process density terms.

For best results, perform a level offset trim before performing a level slope trim.

Best overall accuracy is also achieved by performing the offset and slope trim at two widely separated level values.

NOTE

Changing certain level values (controller height or process density) after performing a level trim overwrites the results of the level trim.

To perform a level offset trim, first adjust the level to the value you wish to trim at. Once the process stabilizes, perform an offset trim. You will be asked to select the level engineering units and then enter the level value observed with a sight glass or other visual reference.

Level Trim Recall

HART Comm.

6, 1, 1, 6, 3

Once the level offset trim is complete, you may notice that the controller height in the level setup parameters has changed. This is how the level offset trim is accomplished.

To perform a level slope trim, first adjust the level to the value you wish to trim at. Once the process stabilizes, perform a slope trim. You will be asked to select the level engineering units and then enter the level value observed with a sight glass or other visual reference.

Once the level slope trim is complete, you may notice that the controller height and process density in the level setup parameters have changed. This is how the level slope trim is accomplished.

The level offset and slope trims modify the user-entered values for controller height and process density. If the trims are not performed satisfactorily, the user may revert to the controller height and process density parameters entered during initial device setup by performing a level trim recall.

TUNE THE LOOP

At this point, you should tune the loop according to industry accepted practices. See “Autotuner” on page 4-12 if you have purchased the Autotune feature (Option Code CC). If you do not have Autotune capabilities, follow the instructions in “Set Control Tuning.”

NOTE

You cannot tune the loop if the controller is out-of-service (OOS). You must change the controller mode to MAN or AUT before tuning the loop.

sometimes called manual bias or manual reset.) This value is only used if the Control Type is set to P or PD. This setting

is used as the controller bias term for the P or PD algorithm equations.

Factory Default: 0.0% Valid Range: 0.0 to 100%

Derivative Filter This selection sets the derivative filter factor. The tuning algorithm

HART Comm.

6, 2, 1, 5

multiplies the derivative filter value by the derivative time (the D portion of the PID tuning algorithm).

The derivative filter value is factory set, and adjustment is not recommended. If the setting is adjusted, you must retune the loop.

Factory Default: 0.125 Valid Range: 0.1 to 1.0

Autotuner (Optional)

Autotuning (Option Code CC) is the process of determining the process parameters, and then applying standard tuning rules to determine the optimal tuning parameters (gain, reset, rate, and bias) for the PID equation. See page 3-4 for further details.

Autotuning may be done at any range, and is not limited to values just around the setpoint. However, autotuning must be done in a region of the tank that is representative of the control region.

Autotuning is a two step process. First, the tuner estimates the process gain, delay and demand by working the process (opening and closing the valve under live process conditions). Second, the proposed tuning parameters (calculated values for gain, reset, rate, and bias) are calculated using the process conditions, loop performance factor, and the control type.

The Autotune procedure uses seven parameters to tune the loop: Alpha, Cycles, Output Limits, Level Lo Limit, Level Hi Limit, Time Limit, and Tune Overshoot. Set these parameters before starting the Autotune procedure.

CAUTION

Autotuning will disturb the process and will not maintain a bumpless, balanceless transfer. The valve will move abruptly without consideration of balance time or manual rate limit. The loop must be out of commission before performing the Autotune procedure.

4-12

Autotuning is not allowed in OOS mode. If you are in OOS mode, you must change the Controller Mode before beginning the Autotune setup (see page 4-11). When the Autotune procedure is finished, the controller returns to the previous control mode (AUTO or MAN) and reverts to previous tuning values. You must “accept” the autotune (page 4-14) for the new tuning parameters to take effect.

Level Controller Configuration

Alpha Alpha is the loop performance factor used to adjust the loop response.

HART Comm.

Communication Problems

TABLE 5-1. Device Does not Communicate with the HAR T Communicator.

If a malfunction is suspected, follow the procedures described here to verify that device hardware and process connections are in good working order. Under each major symptom, specific suggestions are offered for solving the problem. Always deal with the most likely and easiest-to-check conditions first.

Table 5-1 identifies the most likely causes for communication problems between the Model 275 HART Communicator and the Level Controller.

Symptom Corrective Action

No Communication between the HART Communicator and the Level Controller

LOOP WIRING

• HART protocol communication requires a loop resistance value between 250–1100 ohms, inclusive.

• Check for adequate voltage to the device. (If the HART Communicator is connected and 250 ohms resistance is properly in the loop, a pow er sup ply v oltage of at lea st 1 6.5 V dc plus actuator voltage drop is required.) There must be at least 11V dc at the device terminals.

• Check for intermittent shorts, open circuits, and multiple grounds.

• Check for capacitance across the load resisto r. Capacitanc e should be less than 0.1 microfarad.

• If no device is connect ed across the “OUT” termina ls, th e terminals must be shorted (jump ered) together.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance

Unexpected Process Variable (PV) Readings

Use a Model 275 HART Communicator to display the current process variables. Before connecting a HART-based communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.

The following performance limitations may inhibit efficient or safe operation. Critical applications should have appropriate diagnostic and backup systems in place.

Pressure devices contain an internal fill fluid. It is used to transmit the process pressure through the isolating diaphragms to the pressure sensing element. In rare cases, oil loss paths in oil-filled pressure devices can be created. Possible causes include:

• Physical damage to the isolator diaphragms.

• Process fluid freezing.

• Isolator corrosion due to an incompatible process fluid.

A device with oil fill fluid loss may continue to perform normally for a period of time. Sustained oil loss will eventually cause one or more of the operating parameters to exceed published specifications while a small drift in operating point output continues. Symptoms of advanced oil loss and other unrelated problems include:

• Sustained drift rate in true zero and span or operating point output or both.

• Sluggish response to increasing or decreasing pressure or both.

• Limited output rate or very nonlinear output or both.

• Change in output process noise.

• Noticeable drift in operating point output.

• Abrupt increase in drift rate of true zero or span or both.

• Unstable output.

• Output saturated high or low.

DISASSEMBLY PROCEDURES

Process Sensor Body

Read the following information carefully before disassembling a device. General information concerning the process sensor body and electrical housing follow. Figure 2-4 on page 2-6 shows an exploded view of the Level Controller.

Do not remove the instrument cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.

NOTE

Do not leave devices in service once they have been determined to be inoperable.

Be aware of the following:

• The process should be isolated from the device and vented before the device is removed from service for disassembly.

• The process flange can be detached by removing the four flange bolts and the two alignment screws that secure it.

CAUTION

To prevent damage which may lead to inaccurate measurements, do not scratch, puncture, or depress the isolating diaphragms.

• Isolating diaphragms can be cleaned with a soft rag, mild cleaning solution, and clear water rinse.

CAUTION

To prevent damage which may lead to inaccurate measurements, do not use any chlorine or acid solutions to clean the diaphragms.

• The flange adapters and process flange can be rotated or reversed for mounting convenience.

• When removing the process flange or flange adapters, visually inspect the Teflon O-rings. Replace the O-rings if they show any signs of damage, such as nicks or cuts. If they are undamaged, they can be reused.

• If the Teflon sensor module O-rings have been replaced, re-torque the flange bolts after installation to compensate for cold flow.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance

Electrical Housing

Remove the Electronics Board

Electrical connections are located in a compartment identified as FIELD TERMINALS on the electronics housing. Unscrew the cover on the Field Terminal side to access the signal terminal block.

Remove the signal terminal block by loosening the two small screws located at the 9 o'clock and 4 o'clock positions, then pulling the terminal block straight out to disconnect the block from the post connectors.

The device electronics are located behind the cover opposite the terminal side.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to the circuit board, remove power from the device before removing the electronics cover.

To remove the electronics board:

1. Remove the housing cover opposite the field terminal side. Do not remove the instrument cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.

2. Loosen the two captive screws that anchor the board.

CAUTION

The circuit board is electrostatically sensitive. To prevent damage to the circuit board, be sure to observe handling precautions for staticsensitive components.

3. Slowly pull the electronics board out of the housing.

6. Loosen the housing rotation set screw with a 5/64-inch hex wrench and back off one full turn.

CAUTION

Before removing the sensor module from the electronics housing, disconnect the electronics board power cable from the sensor module. This will prevent damage to the sensor module ribbon cable.

7. Unscrew the housing from the module, making sure the shroud and sensor cable do not catch on the housing. Damage can occur to the cable if the internal shroud and sensor cable rotate with the housing. Carefully pull the shroud and sensor ribbon cable assembly through the housing opening.

CAUTION

If the Coplanar flange has been removed, take care not to damage the isolating diaphragm after disassembly. Damage to the isolating diaphragm may lead to inaccurate measurements.

The sensor module is a complete assembly and cannot be further disassembled.

REASSEMBLY PROCEDURES

Attach the Sensor Module to the Electronics Housing

3095-031AB3095LC073095LC06

Follow these procedures carefully to ensure proper reassembly:

1. Inspect all cover and housing (non-process-wetted) O-rings and replace if necessary. Lightly lubricate with silicone to ensure a good seal.

2. Carefully tuck the cable connector completely inside the internal shroud. To do this, turn the shroud and cable counterclockwise one rotation to tighten the cable.

3. Lower the electronics housing onto the module, and guide the internal shroud and cable through the housing and into the external shroud.

4. Fasten the housing to the module by turning clockwise.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to the cable connector, watch the cable and shroud as you attach the housing to the module. Make sure the cable connector does not slip out of the internal shroud and begin to rotate with the housing. Reinsert the cable connector into the shroud if it escapes before the housing is fully fastened.

5. Inspect the threaded connections.

4. Replace the electronics housing cover. Metal to metal contact is preferred. Both device covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof requirements.

5-15

Rosemount Model 3095 Multivariable™ Level Controller

Reassemble the Process Sensor Body

1. Visually inspect the Teflon sensor module O-rings. If the O-rings are undamaged, they can be re-used. If the O-rings show signs of damage, such as nicks or cuts, or if there is any doubt about their sealing ability, replace them with new O-rings.

• Remove the damaged O-rings by carefully prying them from the O-ring grooves. Take care not to damage the surface of the isolating diaphragm during this process.

• Replace the damaged O-rings by fitting new O-rings into the O-ring grooves.

2. Install the process flange on the sensor module. To hold the process flange in place, install the two hex head alignment screws. These screws are not pressure retaining and need only be finger tight. Do not overtighten; this will affect the module/flange alignment.

• Install the appropriate flange bolts using Figure 2-8 on page 2-12 as a reference:

• For installations requiring a ¼–18 NPT mounting, install the four 1.75-inch process flange bolts. First, finger-tighten the bolts. Then tighten the bolts incrementally in a cross pattern until they are securely tightened to 650 in-lb (300 in-lb for stainless steel bolts). After tightening, the bolts should protrude through the top of the module housing.

• For installations requiring a ½–14 NPT mounting, hold the optional flange adapters and flange adapter O-rings in place while finger-tightening the four 2.88-inch process flange/ adapter bolts. Tighten the bolts in a cross pattern following the procedure outlined above. (Use two 2.88- inch bolts and two

1.75-inch bolts for gage pressure configurations.) After tightening, the bolts should protrude through the top of the module housing. If the bolts do not extend all the way through the module housing, you have used a bolt of incorrect length. Replace the bolt with one of the correct length, and repeat the procedure.

• For installations with a three-valve manifold, align the process flange with the three-valve manifold. Install the four 2.25-inch manifold flange bolts following the procedure outlined above. After tightening, the bolts should protrude through the top of the module housing. If the bolts do not extend all the way through the module housing, you have used a bolt of incorrect length. Replace the bolt with one of the correct length, and repeat the procedure. Optional flange adapters can be installed on the process end of the three-valve manifold using the

1.75-inch flange bolts supplied with the device.

3. If the Teflon sensor module O-rings have been replaced, the flange bolts should be re-torqued after installation to compensate for cold flow.

4. Follow these steps to install the drain/vent valve:

• Apply sealing tape to the threads on the seat. Starting at the base of the valve with the threaded end pointing toward the installer, apply two clockwise turns of the sealing tape.

• Take care to orient the opening on the valve so that process fluid will drain toward the ground and away from personnel when the valve is opened.

• Tighten the drain/vent valve to 250 in-lb.

Action Ke ys

275-011AB

As shown in Figure A-4, the action keys are the six blue, white, and black keys located above the alphanumeric keys. The function of each key is described as follows:

ON/OFF Key

Use this key to power the HART Communicator. When the communicator is turned on, it searches for a transmitter on the 4–20 mA loop. If a device is not found, the communicator displays the message, “No Device Found. Press OK.”

If a HART-compatible device is found, the communicator displays the Online Menu with device ID and tag.

Directional Keys

Use these keys to move the cursor up, down, left, or right. The right arrow key also selects menu options, and the left arrow key returns to the previous menu.

HOT Key

Use this key to quickly access important, user-selectable options when connected to a HART-compatible device. Pressing the Hot Key turns the HART Communicator on and displays the Hot Key Menu. See Customizing the Hot Key Menu in the HART Communicator manual for more information.

HART Communicator

Function Keys

Alphanumeric and Shift Keys

FIGURE A-5. HART Communicator Alphanumeric and Shift Keys.

Use the four software-defined function keys, located below the LCD, to perform software functions. On any given menu, the label appearing above a function key indicates the function of that key for the current menu.

As you move among menus, different function key labels appear over the four keys. For example, in menus providing access to on-line help, the label may appear above the F1 key. In menus providing access

HELP

to the Home Menu, the label may appear above the F3 key. Simply press the key to activate the function. See your HART Communicator manual for details on specific function key definitions.

The Alphanumeric keys (Figure A-5) perform two functions: fast selection of menu options (refer to “HART Fast Key Feature” in this section) and data entry.

HOME

FIGURE A-6. Data Entry Key Sequence.

Some menus require data entry. Use the Alphanumeric and Shift keys to enter all alphanumeric information into the HART Communicator. If you press an Alphanumeric key alone from within an edit menu, the bold character in the center of the key appears. These large characters include the numbers zero through nine, the decimal point (.), and the dash symbol (–).

To enter an alphabetic character:

1. Press the Shift key that corresponds to the position on the Alphanumeric key of the letter you want.

2. Press the Alphanumeric key.

For example, to enter the letter R, first press the right Shift key, then the “6” key (see Figure A-6). Do not press these keys simultaneously, but one after the other.

MENUS AND FUNCTIONS

Main Menu

The HART Communicator is a menu driven system. Each screen provides a menu of options that can be selected or provides direction for input of data, warnings, messages, or other instructions.

When the HART Communicator is turned on, one of two menus appears: the Online Menu or the Main Menu.

If the HART Communicator is connected to an operating loop, the communicator finds the device and displays the Online Menu.

If it is not connected to a loop, the communicator indicates that no device was found. When you press OK (F4), it displays the Main Menu.

The Main Menu provides the following options:

• Offline – The Offline option provides access to offline configuration data and simulation functions.

• Online – The Online option checks for a device and if it finds one, brings up the Online Menu. Online communication with the APEX Radar Gauge automatically loads the current gauge data to the HART Communicator.

• Transfer – The Transfer option provides access to options for transferring data either from the HART Communicator (memory) to the APEX Radar Gauge (device) or vice versa. Transfer is used to move offline data from the HART Communicator to the gauge, or to retrieve data from a gauge for offline revision.

• Frequency Device – The Frequency Device option displays the frequency output and corresponding pressure output of currentto-pressure transmitters.

• Utility – The Utility option provides access to the contrast control for the HART Communicator LCD screen and to the autopoll setting used in multidrop applications.

To select an option from the menu, you can use the up and down arrow keys and the select (right arrow) key or you can simply press the corresponding number on the alphanumeric keypad to “fast select” the option.

After selecting a Main Menu option, the HART Communicator provides the information you need to complete the operation. If further details are required, consult the HART Communicator manual.

A-8

HART Communicator

Online Menu

HART Fast Key Feature

The Online Menu can be selected from the Main Menu or it appears automatically if the HART Communicator is connected to an active loop and can detect an operating Level Controller.

Online mode is used for direct evaluation of a particular meter, reconfiguration, changing parameters, maintenance, and other functions.

When configuration variables are reset in online mode, the new settings are not activated until the data is sent to the gauge. Press SEND (F2) when it is activated to update the process variables of the Level Controller.

NOTE

The Main Menu can be accessed from the Online Menu. Press the left arrow action key to deactivate the online communication with the Level Controller and to activate the Main Menu options.

The HART Fast Key feature provides quick online access to Level Controller variables and functions. Instead of stepping your way through the menu structure using the Action Keys, you can press a HART Fast Key sequence to move from the Online Menu to the desired variable or function. On-screen instructions guide you through the rest of the screens.

The HART Fast Key sequences are made up of the series of numbers corresponding to the individual options in each step of the menu structure. For example, from the Online Menu you can change the Date. Following the menu structure, you would:

1. Press 6 to reach Device Setup.

2. Press 4 for General Setup.

3. Press 3 for Device Information.

4. Press 5 for Date.

So, the corresponding HART Fast Key sequence is 6, 4, 3, 5. HART Fast Keys are operational only from the Online Menu. If you use

them consistently, you return to the Online Menu by pressing HOME (F3) when it is available. If you do not start at the Online Menu, the HART Fast Keys will not function properly.

Use Table A-1, an alphabetical listing of online functions, to find the corresponding HART Fast Keys. These codes are applicable only to the Level Controller and the HART Communicator.

OPTIONS Auto-Tuning

(Option Code CC)

Local Operator Interface

Custom Configuration (Option Code C2)

The Model 3095 Level Controller can be supplied with auto-tuning for level control. Auto-tuning determines the process parameters and applies tuning rules to determine the optimal tuning parameters (gain, reset, rate, and bias) for the PID equation. Refer to “Autotuner” on page 4-12 for information.

The Level Controller is supplied blank as standard. An optional Local Operator Interface (LOI) is available. The LOI allows the user to locally change the setpoint and basic controller setup and provides local display of process variables.

Custom factory configuration allows a customer to receive a Model 3095 Level Controller configured for their specific application. A Configuration Data Sheet (CDS 00806-0100-4741) must be completed and returned to Rosemount. The CDS is shown in Section 6 of this manual.
