PROPRIETARY NOTICE
The information contained in this publication
is derived in part from proprietary and patent
data. This information has been prepared for
the express purpose of assisting operating and
maintenance personnel in the efcient use of
the instrument described herein. Publication of
this information does not convey any rights to
use or reproduce it, or to use for any purpose
other than in connection with the installation,
operation and maintenance of the equipment
described herein.
WARNING
This instrument contains electronic components
that are susceptible to damage by static
electricity. Proper handling procedures must
be observed during the removal, installation, or
handling of internal circuit boards or devices:
Handling Procedure:
1. Power to unit must be removed prior to
commencement of any work.
2. Personnel must be grounded, via wrist strap
or other safe, suitable means, before any
printed circuit board or other internal devices
are installed, removed or adjusted.
3. Printed circuit boards must be transported
in a conductive bag or other conductive
container. Boards must not be removed from
protective container until the immediate time
of installation. Removed boards must be
placed immediately in a protective container
for transport, storage, or return to factory.
Comments:
This instrument is not unique in its content
of ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive
components. Most modern electronic designs
contain components that utilize metal oxide
technology (NMOS, CMOS, etc.). Experience
has proven that even small amounts of static
electricity can damage or destroy these
devices. Damaged components, even though
they appear to function properly, exhibit early
failure.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Gladiator Smart Admittance Switch
is a third generation, state-of-the-art
level probe, designed to operate in
tough industrial environments. The
probe of the Admittance Switch forms
one plate of a capacitance circuit, with
the vessel wall making the second plate.
The dielectric constant of the product
between the probe and the vessel wall
will cause a capacitive change as the
level approaches the probe, and the
output will switch in response. A special
circuit is used to ignore product build-up
between the sensing probe (active ele-
ment) and guard, and also between the
guard and vessel wall. The output has
adjustable hysteresis and delays for ‘on’
or ‘off’ switching.
A test function is available to remotely
conrm the probe integrity by switching
the relay contacts.
The Gladiator Smart Switch Series
includes communications capability for
remote adjustment, control and monitor-
ing.
Principle of Operation
The dielectric constant of the material
in the vessel will be different to that of
air. When the material comes near or in
contact with the probe an admittance
change will occur. The resonant fre-
quency of the internal oscillator will then
change. The relay will switch when the
frequency reaches the user selected
Switch Point value.

false trips

If impact from falling material is
expected, mount a protection plate
above the probe to ensure no
physical damage can occur to the
probe in normal operation. If it is not
possible to do this or to move the
probe to an alternative position, use
a microwave switch.

MOUNTING
Probes can be mounted from the top,
side and bottom.
Points to consider when mounting:
A. Material Infeed Clearance
Install the probe away from the infeed to
minimize the inuence of build-up and
impact forces, and to avoid false trigger-
ing from product ow.
B. Wall Clearance
Install the probe far enough away from
the wall to prevent the probe or cable
from coming into contact with the vessel
wall. Avoid creating a conned area
where material could build-up over time.
See note 
C. Nozzle Clearance
Where possible, ensure the probe guard
has at least 100mm clearance from the
nozzle.
D. Top mounting
When top mounting, ensure adequate
clearance is provided between probe
and wall. Avoid creating a conned area
where material could build-up over time.
In the case of cable probe versions,
ensure enough clearance is provided
between the probe and wall to allow for
build-up of material occurring on the
wall.
See note 
E. Side mounting
It is highly recommended to install any
side mounted probe at a downward
angle of 30-45º. Use a protection plate
for side mounting where the probe may
be subject to impact strain or collapsing
material.
F. Bottom mounting
Bottom mounting is not recommended.
Only mount from the bottom if no build-
up of material occurs. If low level mount-
ing is required, suitable options are
shown in the diagram on page 10.
CORRECT MOUNTING NOTES:
(Refer to picture on page 10)
Select correct probe for high tem-
perature applications.
Allow adequate air ow for cooling ex-
tensions dissipate heat.
INCORRECT MOUNTING NOTES:
Incorrect mounting because the
probe is too close to the wall or roof.
Positioning too close to a wall or roof
will limit probe sensitivity. Material may
build-up between the probe and the
vessel.
Incorrect mounting because the
probe’s guard is mounted inside the
nozzle. The correct arrangement is for
the guard to protrude out of the mounting
pipe at least 100mm. Product will build-
up in the nozzle.
Recommended 50mm (2”)
Correct Mounting in a Nozzle

FLEXIBLE CABLE PROBE ADJUSTMENT
Notes for adjusting probe rope length
The Gladiator rope type probe can be
altered to any sensing length between
approx. 750mm and 3m by cutting down
from the standard sizes as required.
If a new rope is to be used, the rope
should be cut to:
Cable probe length - 549mm = new wire rope
length (total sensing length - 549mm)
For example, within a 1000mm (1m) cable:
1000 = [rope + 549]
So rope length = 451mm
Remove or install the probe weight grub
screws with a 4mm allen key.
When fastening the rope, apply thread-
locking adhesive onto grub screws
before re-installation.

Test terminal will provide an output which is able to switch an external failsafe relay or PLC/SCADA/DCS input.
During normal system operation this terminal will internally switch a solid state output to ground (or DC ‘-’).
If power fails or an internal system failure occurs, the terminal will act as an open circuit.
Relay will turn on during
normal system operation
or off in failed or unpowered
conditions.
Input will detect ‘0’ state during normal system
operation, or ‘1’ in failed or unpowered conditions.

TEST TERMINAL FUNCTION SELECTION
TEST INPUT MODE
Test switch must be in ‘TEST’ (ON) position on Smart Probe - function always enabled on Remote Ampli-
er. Test terminal acts as an input for remote testing of the instrument’s switching function.
Used to check for malfunction of unit from a remote position, PLC, SCADA etc. For more
information see page 21.
