USER MANUAL
This manual contains information necessary for the safe and proper use of the PuraLev®iF30SU. Included
are specifications for the standard configurations of the flow control system and instructions regarding its
use, installation, operation, adjustment, inspection and maintenance. For special configurations of the flow
control system refer to accompanying information. If the flowmeters must be configured for other parameter
settings, then the Levitronix®Service Software version V2.0.5.0 (with according manual Levitronix

Doc.#
PL-4047-00)is needed. Familiarize yourself with the contents of the manual to ensure the safe and effective
use of this product. After reading this manual, please store the manual where the personnel responsible for
operating the flow control system can readily refer to it at any time.

1 Safety Precautions
The PuraLev®iF30SU flow control system is designed to be used in industrial production machines and
laboratory equipment containing hydraulic circuits. Typical applications are Single-Use Bioprocessing
manufacturing equipment. Installation shall be done by qualified personnel only. Following safety precautions
and all “CAUTION”, “WARNING” and “DANGER” indications in the relevant sections shall be followed.
CAUTION
Do not under any circumstances open the driver. Levitronix®does not assume
responsibility for any damage, which occurs under such circumstances.
CAUTION
High magnetic field strength of pump impeller.
The flow control system contains a rotor magnet with high field strength. This
may alter or damage the calibration of sensitive electronic devices and
measuring instruments in the immediate surroundings. Keep at a safe distance
from computers, monitors and all magnetic data storage media (e.g. disks, credit
cards, audio and video tapes etc.)
!
WARNING
Hazardous voltage may be present.
In case of the usage of an inadequate AC/DC power supply, mains voltages may
be present (even if the system is designed for up to 24 VDC). The usage of a
galvanic separated power supply, which is certified by a 3rd party (UL or CE), is
highly recommended.
Do not under any circumstances open the powered driver.
!
WARNING
High magnetic field strength of pump impeller.
The flow control system contains a rotor magnet with high field strength.
Pacemakers may be influenced, and magnetic forces may lead to contusions.
Keep distance to pacemakers and handle impeller with care.
!
WARNING
TOXIC CHEMICALS may be present.
When using the system to pump chemicals skin contact and toxic gases may be
hazardous to your health. Wear safety gloves and other appropriate safety
equipment.

2.2 System Overview and General Specification
2.2.1 System Configuration for Stand-Alone Model
Figure 4 illustrates the system configuration of the Stand-Alone model with integrated user panel and buttons
to set the flow manually. The driver also contains a PLC interface for remote control by analog/digital signals.
Various accessories are available like a desktop power supply with relevant power cable and signal cables to
connect to the PLC.
Figure 4: Standard system configuration for Stand-Alone model
2.2.2 System Configurations for EasyConnect Model
The EasyConnect model with relevant cable accessories is designed to realize various interface configurations
with minimal setup effort. The PLC interface allows remote control by analog/digital signals. The Fieldbus
interface enables remote control over a user panel, PC or other devices with Modbus protocol.

Two Fieldbus connectors (IN and OUT) allow to setup arrays of multiple flow controllers. Therefore, blending
configurations as shown in Figure 6 can be realized.
Figure 6: Flowcontrol array for blending applications with EasyConnect models
2.2.3 System Configurations for OEM Models
The OEM model, with one integrated driver connector only, is designed for compact integration into an
equipment. The flow can precisely be set via an analog input. Various digital inputs and outputs allow
controlling and monitoring of the system. A RS485 (Modbus) enables communication with a user panel or a
PC with the Levitronix®Service Software. Hence parameterization, firmware updates and failure analysis are
possible. The RS485 can also be used as a fieldbus to implement more intelligent concepts of pump control.
