BI OIL LEVEL INDICATOR MODEL SO-HE-10 APPLICATION This model of indicator is manufactured considering Transformer application. It can also be used as Content Gauge on other tanks where level of liquid inside the tank is required to be indicated continuously on a dial. CONSTRUCTION, WORKING & FEATURES A float is used as sensor of liquid level inside the conservator (tank). Swing of hinged float due to change in liquid level is utilised to indicate level on a calibrated dial and to operated a switch for external alarm unit. Use of magnetic coupling in the indicator achieves complete sealing off of liquid inside the conservator from surrounding atmosphere. Tis results in avoiding any leakage of costly oil and avoiding contamination of insu oil due to seapage of surrounding air in the conservator. The glass mercury switch is nylon encapsulated to avoid breakage and spiling of mercury. Switch is accessible for servicing while indicator is mounted on the conservator without any necessity of draining the oil CALIBRATION The standard calibration of dial is Empty, 1/4. 1/2, 3/4. Full. Calibration of marks Empty & Full is done after leaving 65 mm from battam and top of conservator to avoid striking Of float to conservator wall. Diifferent calibrations are done to suit customer's needs. MOUNTING To mount the indicator customer has to provide a pad as per Fig. 3 with 6 Nos. M 10 studs, nuts, washers and suitable gasket. In fig. 2, indicator is shown mounted by keeping dial and mounting pad in vertical position. However, indicator can be mounted in titled position towards ground (max 30°C) for easy viewing by fixing mounting pad at desired angle. The position of indicator on the conservator can be selected to suit site condition. Float mechanism passes through the hole in pad (see Fig. 2) ALARM SWITCH & CONNECTIONS One mercury switch is provided for Low Level Alarm. The Normally Open switch closes when oil level drops to 10 mm above Empty level ie. 75 mm from bottom of conservator. Leads from mercury switch are brought into a terminal box positioned at the bottom Of indicator. {see Fig. 4B). A two-way terminal strip is provided which is accessible for connection after removing cover of terminal box. A hole with 3/4” B.S.C. is provided for cable gland. Wiring should be done as per Fig. 4B. 118 SPECIFICATIONS 1, Operating Liquid : Transformer Oil to IS 335 2. Working Temperature 0 to 100° C of Oil 3, Working Pressure 20 to 4 Kg/Cm? 4.
