Operation instruction manual |KSONIK MICRO Ultrasonic Level Transmitter 3
The KSONIK MICRO works on the non-contact principle of ultrasonics.
A pulse of energy emits from the Transducer at the speed of sound and
is detected on its return. The Transmitter can distinguish the difference
between the correct echo and other ambient noise. When the signal
returns, the KSONIK MICRO measures the time period, and then
knowing the speed of sound, it can accurately calculate the distance
from the material to the Transducer. The KSONIK MICRO will adjust the
4-20mA output, accordingly.
In distance mode, the KSONIK MICRO measures distance from the
transducer. This means the 20mA will be the furthest point and the 4mA
will be the closest point.
In level mode, the KSONIK MICRO measures level in a tank. This
means at the furthest point or when the tank is empty, the instrument
will read 4mA. At the closest point the tank will be full and the instrument
will read 20mA.
The Open Channel ow meter uses a level measurement from the
KSONIK MICRO and converts the reading into a ow measurement.
A microprocessor then controls the output functions of the relay, display
and the analogue output signals.

2.0 Quick Start for Distance
KSONIK MICRO was designed to be user friendly with a very simple conguration program. This allows the technician to set
up KSONIK MICRO without the aid of a complicated source-code book. There are no references to any codes in KSONIK
MICRO. The set up procedure is all menu-driven with the aid of questions and multiple-choice answers.
Aim the transducer at a wall about 2 m away and check the display. It should read the following:
If the reading is above 2.000 m then move the instrument closer to the wall.
If the reading is below 2.000 m then move the instrument away from the wall.
You may now proceed and check other parameters.

6.0 INSTALLATION
The KSONIK MICRO is protected to IP65. The Transmitter is dust and waterproof so it can be mounted outside. The
KSONIK MICRO should be mounted using the bracket supplied. Do not install the KSONIK MICRO in areas of high vibration
as this may cause failure. Do not install the KSONIK MICRO in the close vicinity of electrical cable, SCR’s or variable speed
drives. The installation of KSONIK MICRO is the most important section of this manual and has been divided up into 6 sub
sections.
1. The KSONIK MICRO must be tted at least 0.50 m / 1.64 ft above the highest point of level.
2. Always use the plastic nut. The KSONIK MICRO must be tted to a rigid support. Use mild steel or a suitable plastic.
Do not use stainless steel as this can cause ringing.

3. The KSONIK MICRO must be perpendicular to the material it is measuring with a clear line of sight and must not be
above beams or lling points.
4. The transducer should be perpendicular to liquid level.
5. If the KSONIK MICRO is in a coned vessel, it must be positioned over the cone. This ensures that the Transducer
receives the true echo and not one from the sides of the cone.

6. When a standpipe is being used it must be as wide as possible; i.e. the pipe diameter must be at least half its
height, preferably made of plastic. The base MUST have a 45° chamfer to reduce the echo size from the bottom of the
standpipe. No welding should be present on the inside of the pipe as this causes false echoes.
7. If any large electrical equipment is installed in the vicinity, then earthed steel conduit must be used.
7.0 KEY DESCRIPTION
KSONIK MICRO is “user friendly” having only 5 keys and a menu driven display. The keys are listed below with their
appropriate functions.
This is used to initially access the programming and then to run through the various menus.
This key is used to INCREASE the value in the various commands. This key also starts the simulation
mode increasing in level. See page 48 for details.
This key is used to INCREASE the value in the various commands. This key also starts the simulation
mode decreasing in level. See page 48 for details.
When a value has been changed it is only accepted by pressing the ENTER key. The ENTER key while
in run mode scrolls through the relay status screen and onscreen KScope screen.
See page 32 for details.
When programming is complete, press RUN to return KSONIK MICRO back to the run mode.
7.1 Security Code
To advance to the programming mode the correct security code must be entered. The factory default code is 5159. This
code can be changed in the programming mode. If you forget the security code please contact your local ABB agent for
the override code.

1. The maximum returned echo size in volts e.g. 0.4V
2. Displayed instant distance from transducer to substance or object being measured. e.g.13.1 m
3. The Gain needed to get the particular returned echo signal to give a particular measurement. e.g. 50%
4. The amount of power needed to obtain an echo. e.g. 15% power
5. Maximum distance or span. e.g. 15.0 m
6. Graphical representation of the echo received by the transducer.
7. Threshold line whereby any echoes below this line will not be accepted.
8. Indication of good echo, noise, or loss of echo. e.g. E for good echo, N for noise or O for loss of echo.
9. The maximum voltage scale of the Onscreen KScope.
10. The echo loss timer started when no signal is present.
