Category: Motorcycle Accessories

Type: User guide

Keller Level and Pressure Transmitters provide accurate and reliable measurements for various applications. The submersible Levelgage, with NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 certifications, is ideal for freshwater monitoring with a 0.25% FS accuracy. The Acculevel offers enhanced functionality with dual analog and digital outputs, higher accuracy up to 0.05% FS, and construction options for increased corrosion resistance. The LevelRat excels in grease-laden environments with its non-stick diaphragm and dual analog/digital outputs. The Microlevel combines high accuracy (0.

NOTES:

1: FOR TRANSMITTERS WITH LIGHTNING/SURGE PROTECTION,

CONNECT DRAIN WIRE TO A LOW-IMPEDANCE EARTH GROUND.

FOR TRANSMITTERS WITHOUT LIGHTNING/SURGE PROTECTION,

THIS PIN IS CONNECTED TO THE TRANSMITTER CASE.

2: DRYING TUBE ASSEMBLY - CLEAR TUBE FILLED WITH INDICATING

DESICCANT, ATTACHES DIRECTLY TO CABLE VENT TUBE,

INTERCEPTS WATER VAPOR. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED WHEN

OPERATING IS IN HIGH HUMIDITY CONDITIONS. MUST BE

PERIODICALLY RENEWED AS DESICCANT BECOMES SATURATED,

TURNING COLOR FROM BLUE (DRY) TO PINK (SATURATED).

REMOVE YELLOW CAP FROM FREE END AFTER INSTALLATION.

3: BELLOWS ASSEMBLY - ALTERNATIVE TO THE DRYING TUBE, THIS

ANEROID BELLOWS ATTACHES TO CABLE VENT TUBE AND

REQUIRES NO PERIODIC MAINTENANCE. RECOMMENDED WHERE A

SLIGHT SACRIFICE IN ACCURACY CAN BE TOLERATED.
