LM1000
LEVEL MONITOR
AND CONTROL

FEATURES

DESCRIPTION

The LM1000 is designed to monitor the level of liquids using a pressure sensor as the source of level data. A four digit LED display indicates level in feet to two decimal places (XX.XX). The LM1000 provides 24 VDC regulated power for a 2 wire transmitter.

An Alarm circuit with a SPDT relay output can be set as a high or low alarm. It can be configured as a Normal or Reverse Acting (fail safe) alarm. The Setpoint control is adjustable over the entire 4-20 mA input range and a Deadband control allows the Hysteresis to be set from less than 1% to 90% of the span.

Using the Alarm circuit, the LM1000 can also be used as a level control by setting the Alarm to trip at a high level to start the pump and setting the Deadband to stop the pump when the level falls to the desired lower limit.

The LED display can be switched to indicate level or to accurately indicate the loop 4-20 mA current. A built in calibrator allows the loop current to be adjusted over the 4-20 mA range with a ten turn potentiometer. The calibrator function is chosen with a spring loaded switch that returns the LM1000 to the Level indication mode when released. This spring loaded switch insures the unit is not inadvertently left in the Calibration mode. The unique positioning of the switch in relationship to the adjustment potentiometer allows single handed simultaneous operation of both the switch and the potentiometer.

The calibration function can be used to calibrate the LED display in Level. It can also be used to calibrate the alarm Setpoint and Deadband. An LED indicator behind the display lens indicates when the alarm is energized.

Available options include the LS1000 pressure transducer / transmitter level sensor and a pipe mounting kit for the NEMA 4X enclosure.
