Operating Principle
LSVR Vibrating rod is a single element tuned mechanical element-type level sensing device.
Electronics of LSVR excites the piezo-electric-crystals inside the tuning rod, which makes
the rod vibrate at it's natural resonance frequency in free air.
Amplitudes of vibration are above threshold when the rod is free to vibrate.
When the material touches the rod, vibration stops as resonance gets disturbed.
Amplitude of vibration, as sensed by the electronics falls below the threshold, material presence is
thus detected by observing the amplitude of vibration.

Do's and Don'ts
Features
Installation Precaution
1
1. Always connect the "Earth" to the external "Earthing" screw
3
2. Tighten the cable entries & glands properly

2
3. Secure the top aluminium cover at its place properly once the
electrical connections and other settings are completed
4
5
4. Always tighten the process connection using proper wrench
never try to tight by rotating the aluminium housing
5. Make sure process connection is same as that in hopper/tank

6
6. Vibrating rod probe:-

6.1 Should never be bent
6.2 Should never be held from thin part
6.3 Should never be cut or machined in any way
6.2 6.4 Should never be extended by welding or machining
7. Cable entries must face downwards only
8. Nozzles should never be longer than the rod sense
9. If mounted directly under the material entry, always install

a cannopy of suitable strength at proper height from the rod
10. Never climb either by gripping or stepping over either the

rod sense or its aluminium housing
11. Obeserve other safety precautions as required at the place

2. Tighten the cable entries & glands properly

5. Make sure process connection is same as that in hopper/tank

6. Vibrating rod probe:-

7. Cable entries must face downwards only

8. Nozzles should never be longer than the rod sense

9. If mounted directly under the material entry, always install

10. Never climb either by gripping or stepping over either the

11. Obeserve other safety precautions as required at the place

sensor is permanently in alarm If power LED is OFF check voltage on

Rod is vibrating but no switching output Sensor electronic insert evaluation

3. Over temperature of service material

Maintenance and Spares
