3.0 Reference Information
3.1 Troubleshooting
Solitel is a simple and reliable device. However, care must
be taken to avoid impacting or damaging the vibrating
probe.
In the event the Solitel stops vibrating, the following pro-
cedure will identify if the problem is with the electronic
module or with the sensor:
Disconnect the wires going to the sensor. (Terminals 3, 4,
and 5). The following gives the expected voltage range
between the sensors.
Terminals
3 and 4
3 and 5
Voltage
4 to 6 VDC
0.3 to 1.0 VAC
If these voltage readings are not obtained, the electronics
are defective and need to be replaced. If these voltages are
measured, the problem is with the sensor.
NOTE: The probe and electronics must be matched to ensure
proper operation. Use the following procedure to match
the electronics and the vibrating probe:
1. Connect the wires from the sensor to terminals 3, 4, 5.
There will be two wires of the same color and one wire of
different color. The two similar wires go to terminals 4 and
5; the single wire goes to terminal 3.
2. If the potentiometer is labeled “density” turn to the low
position – if labeled “sensitivity” turn to the high position.
Note this potentiometer has a 270 degree turn.
3. Apply power to the electronic module.
4. Turn the electronic module over.
