Frequently Asked Questions - LR7024 IFM

How to shorten the LR7024 sensor probe?
Unscrew the probe, cut it to the desired length (minimum 150 mm), deburr, then screw it back with a torque of 4 Nm. Then set the new length in the LEnG menu.
What to do if the display shows Err1?
Err1 indicates a measurement signal out of range or a loss of signal. Clean the probe and process connection, check minimum mounting distances (walls, dead zone) and level plausibility. Correct the fault then perform a reset (power off then on).
What are the functions of the two switching outputs?
The outputs OUT1 and OUT2 can be independently configured in hysteresis mode (Hno/Hnc) or window mode (Fno/Fnc). They switch according to the set SPx and rPx thresholds. Each output can also have a switching delay of 0 to 5 seconds.
How to set the switching thresholds SP and rP?
Use the Mode/Enter buttons to navigate the menu and Set to modify values. First set SP (upper threshold), then rP (lower threshold). The difference creates hysteresis or window width. Values must be within the probe's measuring range.
Can I use the sensor in a plastic tank?
No, the device requires a metal tank for measurement signal transmission. It is not suitable for plastic covers. Use a metal plate at least 150 mm on each side for open tanks.
What fluids can be detected?
The sensor is designed for aqueous liquids (dielectric constant >20) such as watering liquids, lubricants and detergents. Not suitable for oils, greases, acids, bases, powders or bulk materials.
What is the dead zone (BD) and how to avoid it?
The dead zone is a 40 mm region under the thread where measurement is not reliable. The level must not exceed this zone by more than 10 mm, otherwise errors occur. Provide a weir to keep the level below this zone.
How to orient the housing after installation?
The housing can be rotated 360° relative to the thread. Gently turn it to the desired position without risk of damage. The probe is also rotatable to facilitate assembly/disassembly.
How to configure a switching delay?
In the extended menu (EF), set dr1 and dr2 for each output. The delay applies only in hysteresis mode. Set the value from 0 to 5 seconds in 0.2 s steps. Confirm with the Mode/Enter button.
What does the 'FULL' display mean?
The 'FULL' display accompanied by the maximum value indicates an overflow: the level exceeds the maximum measuring range. If the level remains above, measurement errors may occur. Reduce the level or adjust the programming.

Function and features

Applications

LR70 is a compact level sensor for the detection of liquids. The unit was specially designed to meet the requirements of machine tool building. It is specially suited for monitoring coolant emulsions as well as aqueous cleaning agents in part cleaning systems.

Restriction of the application area

- Only use the unit in metal tanks.

Not suited for plastic tank covers.

  • The unit is not suitable for oils, fats, granulates, bulk materials, acids, alkalis; it is not suitable for food and electroplating applications.
  • Foam, separate layers (e.g. oil on water), highly absorbing or bubbling surfaces can lead to incorrect measurements or signal loss. Check the function by an application test.

In case of signal loss, the unit displays "Err1" and switches the outputs to a defined state →page 41, output response).

Functional overview

Measuring principle

The unit operates to the principle of guided wave radar: It measures the

level using electromagnetic pulses in the nanosecond range.

The pulses are transmitted by the sensor head and guided along the probe (fig. 1). When they hit the medium to be detected they are reflected and guided back to the sensor (fig. 2). The time between transmitting and receiving the pulse directly relates to the travelled distance and the current level.

IFM LR7024 - Measuring principle - 1

text_image Diagram showing two mechanical or fluid system configurations with directional arrows and wave patterns, labeled 1 and 2.

The reference for distance measurement is the lower edge of the thread.

Functional overview

  • The unit displays the current level and signals via two switching outputs that the set limits have been reached or that the level is below the set limit. The setpoint and reset point values and the switching function of the outputs can be set via the user menu. For each of the two switching outputs a switch-off delay (max. 5 s) can be set (e.g. for specially long pump cycles).
  • The unit can be installed in tanks of different sizes. 3 probe lengths are available. To adapt to the tank height, it is also possible to shorten the probe. The unit can be set to the new probe length via the user menu.
  • The zone between tank bottom and lower edge of the measuring probe can be entered as offset value (OFS). Thus display and switch points refer to the real level.
  • The display unit can be set: cm or inch..
  • The unit can be reset to the factory settings.
  • The response of the outputs in case of a fault is adjustable. If a fault is detected or if the signal quality is below a minimum value, the outputs pass into the safe state (→page 37, parameters FOU1 and FOU2).
  • Housing rotatable by 360^ for orientation after mounting.
  • Probe rotatable by 360^ for easier mounting / removal of the probe.

ParameterStep P
1 Access the extended functionsPress the Mode/Enter button until EF is displayed.Press the Set button. The first parameter of the extended menu is now displayed. You can access the corresponding parameter value by pressing the Set button again. Pressing the Mode/Enter button accesses the following parameters.EF
2 Selection of the display unitSet the required display unit: cm / inch.Select the display unit before setting values for the parameters SPx, rPx, LEnG, OFS. This avoids rounding errors generated internally during the conversion of the units and enables exact setting of the values.Setting at the factory: Uni = cm.Uni
3 Setting of the probe lengthThis setting is only necessary if the probe length differs from the delivered length.On delivery: LEnG = probe length L (see scale drawing page 41).Determine the actual probe length (measured from the lower edge of the thread to the probe end). Round this value to 5 mm / 0.2 inch.Activate the parameter LEnG. Enter the new value.For the setting range of the probe length please refer to the table on page 38LEng
4 Setting of the offset valueThe zone between tank bottom and lower edge of the measuring probe can be entered as offset value (OFS). Thus display and switch points refer to the real level.Setting at the factory: OFS = 0.The setting values OFS are indicated in the table on page 38.Please note: Select OFS, before setting values for the parameters SPx, rPx and OP. This avoids inadvertent maladjustment.OFS

  • rPx is always smaller than SPx. Reducing the value for SPx to a value ≤ rPx also shifts the position of rPx.
  • If the difference between rPx and SPx is small (approx. 3 x increment), increasing rPx also increases SPx.
  • If the difference between rPx and SPx is great, rPx remains at the set value

Hysteresis function (Hno, Hnc) (fig. 1):

The hysteresis keeps the switching state of the output stable if the level of the medium varies about the preset value.

With the level rising, the output switches when the switch-on point has been reached (SPx). With the level falling, the output does not switch back until the level falls below the reset point rPx.

The hysteresis for SPx can be adjusted: First the switch-on point is set, then the switch-off point with the requested distance.

Window function (Fno, Fnc) (fig 2)

The window function enables the monitoring of a defined acceptable range. When the level of the medium varies between the switch-on point (SPx) and the switch-off point (rPx), the output is switched (window function / NO) or not switched (window function / NC).

The width of the window can be set by means of the difference between SPx and rPx. SPx = upper value, rPx = lower value.

Installation and set-up / Operation

After mounting, wiring and programming check whether the unit operates correctly.

Operating and fault indication:

CALInitialisation after power on.
XX.XLevel indication.
----During operation: level below the active zone.During programming: Feedback during factory reset: all parameters reset to factory setting".
FULLXX.XMaximum measuring range is reached or exceeded."FULL" and the indication of the maximum level alternate every second (= warning overflow).
LocUnit electronically locked, programming not possible.For unlocking press the two programming buttons for 10 s.
uLocFeedback: unit is unlocked / programming is possible again.
Err0Fault in the electronics (the unit must be replaced).
Err1- Measured signal below the safe evaluation range. Clean the probe and the process connection. Check mounting (the minimum distances may not have been adhered to).- The level exceeded the block distance by more than 10 mm.Reduce the level, attach a spout if possible.- The level reaches the state "empty" or "full" more quickly than allowed (plausibility check). Possible causes: cleaning or maintenance of the probe or tank, contact with the probe when switched on.
SC1, SC2Flashing: short circuit in the switching output 1, 2.
SCFlashing: short circuit in both switching outputs.

Carry out a reset (power off and on again) after rectifying the fault and to reset the error message.

Read the set parameter values:

- The parameter names are scrolled with each pressing of the "Mode/Enter" button.

- When the "Set" button is pressed briefly, the corresponding parameter value is displayed for 15s.
