English Introduction The Echomax XPS/XCT series of transducers operate with Siemens Milltronics ultrasonic level monitoring products. The transducer converts the electrical transmit pulse from the transceiver into acoustical energy. It then converts the acoustical energy of the echo back into electrical energy for the controller.
The certification of this equipment relies on the following materials used in their construction: XCT Series Kynar®1710 Kynar®710 Encapsulant Stycast LA-9823-76 Durapot® 861-F3 & 864 1. Kynar®is a registered trademark of ELF Atochem. Durapot®is a registered trademark of Cotronics Corporation. For manual override, use the disconnect switch provided in the building installation of the associated controller.

Mounting – Solids Applications English Easy Aimer (typical model) safety chain transducer WARNING: Improper installation may result in loss of process pressure. Mounting – Liquid Applications Bracket Flexible Conduit flexible conduit steel channel coupling safety chain transducer Flexible conduit mounted transducer should not be subjected to wind, vibration, or jarring.
Mounting – Liquid Applications (cont’d) Blind Flange English nipple welded to blind flange coupling flange, gasket, and hardware supplied by customer. Note: Tighten the flange bolts evenly in order to ensure a good seal between the mating flanges. Caution: Overtightening can cause performance degradation. Flanged coupling factory flanged transducer bolt gasket customer flange, flat face only nut Customer flanged standpipe.
Interconnection Connect the transducer directly to the Siemens Milltronics transceiver via the two conductor shielded cable. blk wht drain/shield Note: When connecting to an EnviroRanger ERS 500, a MultiRanger 100/200, or a HydroRanger 200, the white, black, and shield wires are all connected separately. DO NOT tie the white and shield wires together. Coaxial Connection Connect the transducer to the Siemens Milltronics transceiver via a junction box and RG–62 A/ U coaxial cable.
