CUS71D Working Principle and Features

Measurement Principle

CUS71D emits pulsed sound waves through an ultrasonic transducer. After the sound waves reflect off the liquid surface, they are received by the transducer. The instrument calculates the liquid level height based on the sound wave propagation time.

This principle is not affected by medium density or conductivity and is suitable for various complex working conditions.

Core Features

  • Non-contact measurement: avoids medium corrosion and adhesion, extending service life.
  • High precision: measurement accuracy up to ±0.25%FS, meeting industrial needs.
  • Wide range: optional ranges such as 0~5m, 0~10m, 0~15m.
  • Output signal: 4-20mA, HART, RS485 optional, easy to integrate.
  • Protection rating: IP67, suitable for outdoor installation.

CUS71D Installation Guide

Installation Location Selection

  • Avoid installing directly above the feed inlet to prevent false echoes.
  • Keep away from interference sources such as agitators and heating coils.
  • Ensure the transducer surface is perpendicular to the liquid surface.
  • Reserve sufficient blind zone; the highest liquid level must be lower than the blind zone.

Installation Steps

  1. According to the process connection specification, weld or flange-mount the base on the top of the vessel.
  2. Screw CUS71D in vertically or fix it with a flange, ensuring sealing.
  3. Wiring: power supply 24VDC, connect the output signal according to the manual.
  4. After power-on, check whether the instrument display is normal.

CUS71D Commissioning and Maintenance

Commissioning Method

Parameter settings can be made via a HART communicator, RS485, or local buttons.

  • Set the upper and lower range limits.
  • Set the blind zone value.
  • Adjust the output current corresponding to the liquid level.
  • Perform false echo suppression if necessary.

Daily Maintenance

  • Regularly clean the transducer surface to prevent scaling.
  • Check cable sealing to avoid water ingress.
  • Calibrate the output current every six months.

Selection and Procurement Recommendations

Selection requires confirmation of range, medium characteristics, process connection, output signal, and environmental conditions.

For corrosive media, PTFE or PVDF transducer materials can be selected.

When purchasing, please request the CUS71D Chinese manual to ensure correct installation and commissioning.

FAQ

What should I do if CUS71D measurement is inaccurate?

Check whether the installation location avoids interference sources, clean the transducer, and reset the blind zone and range.

CUS71D output signal is abnormal?

Confirm whether the power supply voltage is stable, whether the wiring is correct, and replace the module if necessary.
