INTRODUCTION
Next generation of Compact Survey Unit (known as CSU 3) is having all options included (built in) as standard and
therefore no more “modular” (assembled to order with only specified options). On top of all options integrated, the
CSU 3 has an improved design and functionalities.
One major improvement is a bidirectional communication, transmitting informations (signal, content, ouputs and
settings) remotely and able to receive information from remote computer to modify settings and/or parameters;
through USB or RS485 communication port.
The receiver is approved for use in industrial environment allowing the “CE” marking.
All the settings, technical characteristics and parameters, user guide, installation procedure and ordering
informations are detailed in the next pages of this manual.

1.1 Presentation

The CSU 3 receiver has been designed for stationary application, associated with a Voltage output
transmitter, either Eexd 5k? (model 6323S*****) or Hall Effect (model 6320S*****), allows the remote reading
of tank content [expressed in %] onto 2 digits LED display combined with (4) four adjustable level set points
(each with a led on front display). The CSU 3 receiver also incorporates a control of mechanical gauge correct
operation.
The integrated options being:
-Current (4-20mA) output, self powered loop, allowing to convert tank volume (filling / emptying) to a passive
receiver (analogue or digital).
-RS485 communication output.
-USB2.0 communication output.
-Four (4) volt-free inverter relays (250VAC/3A)
associated to the adjustable set points.

Receiver's electronics is enclosed into light grey plastic

enclosure (159/90/58mm) for DIN rail (35mm symmetric)
mounting; optionally this receiver can be mounted into
waterproof IP-65 box with transparent cover, equipped with
four (4) cable glands M16 and one (1) M20. Depending on
application requirement a safety barrier (pre-wired) can be
also integrated into the IP box, also DIN rail mounted next to
the receiver (to be specified on order).

Wiring and electrical connections being made with (max

2,5mm² wire section) screw terminals on the CSU 3
receiver.

Powering of the receiver is either 100 to 240 VAC (50 or 60

Hz) reaching 4W consumption, or 24VDC (+/-10%)
stabilized and regulated power (to be specified on order).

1.2 Components and assembly

The CSU 3 reciever is made of two (2) circuit boards, superimposed, with a communication bus in between:
-mother board incorporating the screw terminals, microprocessor, power input module protected by two
(2) fuses 800mA/250V (only factory replaceable), output relays and communication outputs.
-display board incorporating the four (4) settings push-buttons, 2 digits led display (yellow) showing tank
volume [%] and default mode signal, four (4) round led's (red) showing the output relays' status and a
independent led showing programming/standard mode.

 CHAPTER 2
GENERAL OPERATION
The CSU 3 receiver generates and provides input power of 5VDC to the associated transmitter (Eexd voltage
transmitter or Hall effect Twiniste) and to the 4-20mA current loop.
The internal microprocessor converts the non linear signal received from the transmitter into a two (2) digits display
with 1% resolution and simultaneously controls the correct operation (float travel) of the level gauge thanks to
selected (adjustable) time delay.
The microprocessor allows the configuration for all the adjustable settings of the CSU 3 receiver (see chapter 4):
-calibration of receiver depending on the transmitter model (Eexd potentiometer with/without heel resistance or
Hall effect with/without safety barrier) and measurements line (line and/or contact resistance,…)
-Set points configuration (Min/Max level, time delay, logic).
-calibration of the 4-20mA current loop according to connected receivers (own resistance).
-Activation and settings for communication outputs RS485 and USB.
-Mechanical gauge's float travel check (filling/emptying).

2.1 Receiver fault mode

If there is a fault on the sensor line (short-circuit or break in one or more jumpers), the receiver goes into
security mode and responds by:
- blinking the four red LEDs
- showing a flashing HS on the LED display
- switching all relays to their rest position (similar to a main power cut)
- setting the 4-20mA output to 0% (4mA)
- sending the default signal and hiding the volume on the RS485 and USB communication lines.
If the input signal is considered too low (depending on the sensor used, see page 12), the display shows a «
blinking LL »; inversely, if the signal is considered too high, the display shows a « blinking HH ».
If there is no display connected to the 4-20mA output, the receiver indicates this by causing the tank volume
(in %) to blink.
If the gauge movement detector receives contradictory information, « F » appears on the display.

 CHAPITRE 3
CONNECTION / WIRING
3.1 General Instructions
The following instructions are intended to help installers but in no way replace existing regulations, local
standards or laws. Non-compliance of these may undermine the protection.

Electrical installation and earthing of the equipment should be under approval, in compliance with the rules
and regulations for installations currently applicable in the country where the receiver is located. The
electrical system to which the CSU receiver is connected must have been officially checked and approved
and must be in accordance with the currently applicable standards. The main power supply of the CSU
receiver should go through a bipolar disconnector.
All operations (installation and wiring) should be executed by a qualified technician and the receiver should be
connected to the main earth connection of the installation.
The cables used for the various connections must be LiYCY-OB type (or equivalent), especially in an
industrial environment or any other location where electromagnetic interference may be present. Use only
this type of cable (LiYCY-OB) 0.75mm² in section so the line resistance is limited to 26? /Km and the line
capacitance to 130pF/Km at a frequency of 800Hz (see cable data sheet, page 17).
Also ensure that the distance between the transmitter (voltage-divider or with Hall Effect sensor) and the CSU
receiver does not exceed 300m.

3.2 Connecting an explosion-proof voltage-divider transmitter (see page 8)

There is no need to use an integrated security barrier if the CSU is connected to an explosion-proof voltage
transmitter (6323S*007**).
In addition, the shield of the cable is attached internally to the transmitter housing which is itself connected to
the earth on the tank. The shielded cable between the transmitter and the receiver MUST be interrupted (see
page 8). This ensures the cable is not used as an equipotential earth connector.
The principle is the same where the tank has cathodic protection.
If there is a difference between the sensor reading and the receiver display, it is possible to adjust the reading
on the display of the CSU (see pages 8 and 12).

3.3 Connecting a Hall Effect sensor with safety barrier (see page 9)
If the CSU is connected to a Hall Effect transmitter (6320S*207**) located in a dangerous area, the + line
MUST be protected with an intrinsec safety barrier as well as the « S » line. The choice of barrier is critical
because it must comply with the safety requirements for the sensor (see specific documentation for Hall
Effect transmitters) but also be as electrically neutral as possible so as not to affect sensor operation and not
interfere with the measurement (see page 9). The internal resistors in the barrier do, in fact, cause a line drop.
As a result, it is essential to ensure that the power to the Hall Effect sensor (see V ) is between 3.8 and 6 Vdc
for Hall Effect Standard. Ideally, it should be of 5VDC output safety barrier

UNSAFE AREA SAFE AREA

- The sield of the cables must be connected the whole lenght of the wiring (see 1 ) if a Hall-Effect transmitter
(6320S*207**) is used (see page 9).
- The earth MAY NOT be connected to the shield of the cable (see 1 and 2 )
- If there is a difference between the sensor reading and the receiver display, it is possible to adjust the reading
6/20 on the display of the CSU (see page 12).
 3.4 USB and RS485 outputs
Both USB or RS485 outputs are to be used for a permanent
communication with the CSU receiver. Up to 32 receivers can be
monitored on same communication line. A maximum distance of 300
meters for RS485 output should be observed.

Wiring RS485 to CSU 3 receiver:

- connect “B” terminal (RS TX-B) from receiver to pin#1 (TX-) of
DB9 connector.
- connect “A” terminal (RS RX-A) from receiver to pin#2 (TX+) of
DB9 connector.
- connect cable's shield to “Sh” terminal from receiver, to be also
connected to metal part of DB9 connector.
RS485 pinout
Wiring USB to CSU 3 receiver:
- use a standard cable with both connector “A-type” and “B-type” on
each end, maximum length of 3 meters. Shielded cable preferred.

4 : nw 9 : nw
5 : nw nw = not wired

3.5 4-20mA output

The 4-20mA output is used for the remote transfer of display data (0 to 100%), where 0% corresponds to 4mA
and 100% to 20mA (or 1% = 0.16mA).
The output is « ACTIVE », meaning that, the receiver CSU provides the 24Vdc power needed for the current
loop circuit to operate correctly. The display(s) on the current loop circuit MUST ABSOLUTELY be
«PASSIVE». The sum of their internal resistance and the line resistance may not exceed 750W .
The length of this line may not exceed 300m.
Any number of numeric, analogue, PLC (or other) ammeters or a combination of different types can be
connected, but in this case they must be wired in series.

If the 4-20mA output is enabled in the receiver settings, the display flashes to indicate a fault in the current
loop:
- either the output is not connected
- or a display is faulty
- or there is a break in the current loop.

RECEIVER SETTINGS
4.1 « ON-SITE » settings through receiver push-buttons
Before settings, technician should carefully inspect there are no damages on the receiver's enclosure; If it
would be, the receiver should be first repaired while it is disconnected from power supply, before using the
push-buttons.

The CSU receiver settings are adjusted using four pushbuttons flush with the front of the unit:
- The « P » button is used to select the Parameters.
- The « V » button is used to enter parameter Values.
- The « + » button is used to scroll up the menu or to increase the value of a parameter
- The « - » button is used to scroll down the menu or to decrease the value of a parameter.

The different settings are entered using an endless menu (for details, see next page). This means that once
the end of the menu has been reached, it returns automatically to the start, and vice-versa.
You navigate through the menu using the flush « P » button and pressing the « + » and « - » buttons to scroll up
and down.
To change the value of a parameter, you navigate to the parameter to be changed. You then hold down the V
button until the display shows the value of the parameter (the value will flash to indicate it can be changed).
Continue holding the « V » button, and press the « + » and « - » buttons to increase or decrease the parameter
value.

Before making changes, always put the receiver in adjustment mode. To do so, enter value «13» for
parameter «99» and illuminating the green programming LED.

This mode is deactivated automatically after ±4 minutes without anything happening

or if power to the receiver is cut.

If after entry of an incorrect value the device no longer works properly, you can reinitialise all
parameters and return them ALL to their initial « status RESET » (for details see column
« RESET » on page 17). To do so, simply enter « 50 » for parameter « 99 » (RESET all values).

All parameters will be reinitialised.

It is not possible to initialise a single parameter.

 4.3 Calibrating receiver to match transmitter
The receiver input signal can be supplied by several kinds of sensors:
- a classic 5K? voltage-divider transmitter (with 2 x 330? reference resistances) in an explosion-proof
housing (6323S*0070*) (see specific documentation), for mounting on a Magnetel (series 63xx) gauge or
on a Senior gauge (series 629x or 729x).
- a 5k? , 0-10V voltage-divider transmitter in an explosion-proof housing (6323S*0071*) (see specific
documentation), for mounting on a Magnetel (series 63xx) gauge or on a Senior gauge (series 629x or
729x) .

Magnetel Transmitter
6323S5007** with
this core.

- Hall Effect transmitter “6320S*207**” (see specific documentation) for mounting on a Magnetel (series
63xx) gauge or on a Junior or Senior (series 62xx) gauge.

Calibrating the receiver :

The receiver needs to be calibrated to suit the type of sensor used and the line parameters.To do so, remove
the sensor from the mechanical gauge. Turn the needle on the dial by inserting a small metal blade or paper
clip in the back of the sensor and turning it to the position shown.

The microprocessor will insert a two-second delay

between pressing a button and displaying the result.

1. Setting the lower limit:

- set the transmitter with the needle on the dial indicating exactly 3 or 5% for an explosion-proof transmitter
or 10% for a Hall Effect sensor.
Once the needle is set to the value above, change the value of parameter « 51 » until the receiver display
shows the same value as indicated by the needle on the transmitter.
2. Setting the upper limit:
- Set the needle on the transmitter to indicate exactly 95 or 97% for an explosion-proof transmitter or 90%
for a Hall Effect sensor. Modify the value of parameter « 52 » until the receiver display indicates the same
value as that indicated by the needle on the transmitter.

Non-significant values :
Finally, it is possible to define non-significant values for a transmitter type. This derives from the fact that the
gauges have limit stops (their operating angles are different from those of the transmitters). It is therefore
interesting to indicate when these stops have been reached.If one of these values is reached, the receiver
displays « LL » for low overshoot values and « HH » for high overshoot values.To indicate to the receiver the
type of transmitter it is communicating with: Modify the value of parameter « 50 » as shown in the table below.

 4.4 Setting « 4-20mA » output
The 4-20 mA output needs to be calibrated to suit the measuring circuit loop.

The receiver is pre-set at the factory and simply needs to be adjusted (if necessary).
To do so, first connect an ammeter (Direct Current) directly to the 4-20mA output on the receiver (you could
also use a multimeter set to « mAdc », for example).
First, navigate to parameter « 53 » in the menu and intorduce the value « 01 » for activate the 4-20mA output.
Then navigate to parameter « 54 » in the menu. Press the « V » button; the receiver sends an output signal to
the current loop. If the ammeter does not indicate 4mA, adjust the current using the « + » and « - » buttons
(while pressing the « V » button) until the ammeter indicates 4.00mA. Repeat the procedure with parameter «
55 » until the ammeter indicates 20.00 mA.

Note: The values of parameters 54 and 55 do not represent the output current but
are simply an indication of the level in the available settings range.There is no
direct correspondence between « % » and « mA».

Finally, replace the ammeter by the measuring circuit loop and check that the displays are showing the correct
value. If this is not the case, reset parameters 54 and 55, but this time using the measuring circuit loop. You
can connect the ammeter used to calibrate the 4-20mA output to the current loop to check whether the error is
coming from the line load or from one or more ammeters connected to the current loop.

NOTE:
- Measure the current loop because this should not exceed 750W .
- If the unit is RESET, parameter « 53 » receives the value « - », which blocks the 4-20mA output. It is then
necessary to reset the output as explained above.

4.5 Set-Points setting

The receiver has four LEDS, one for each set-point level (numbered 1 to 4). There is a change-over relay for
each set-point.

For systems needing a pump and/or valve control, the CSU receiver also allows you to change up to four set-
points using potential-free change-over relays, but with a maximum limit of 250Vac or 30Vdc / 3A per output. It
is possible to define the type of set-point (Min. or Max.) independently for each relay. You can also define a
different trip delay for each of the output relays. The different functions of the set-points are adjustable on site
and when processing. Note, however, that changing the status of a relay may affect the operation of a device
attached to its change-over contact.

The set-points are preset as indicated below (unless requested otherwise) :

Set- Level Type Delay

Points «P» «V» «P» «V» «P» «V»
1 10 90% 11 H 12 0 sec
2 20 80% 21 H 22 0 sec
3 30 15% 31 L 32 0 sec
4 40 10% 41 L 42 0 sec

Level Represents the switching threshold of the set-point (expressed in %)

Type Indique si le déclenchement est de type Maximum (H) ou Minimum (L)
H: switching for values greater than or equal to the level
L : switching for values less than or equal to the level

4.6 Setting « RS485 » output

IMPORTANT REMINDERS :
- Each receiver must have a different ID address.
-The RS485 output is intended for a permanent connection. A simple cable pair is adequate for establishing
communications, the use of a shielded cable considerably reduces communications problems in a noisy
environment. A 470Ù/0.6 W resistor should be placed at the end of each line. If the connection is star-
shaped, each branch should be terminated with an end-of-line resistor placed between lines A and B.

There are not settings required for the RS485 output, it just needs to be activated while setting parameter “60”
with value “01” (factory set) and setting the address value for the receiver (between 00 & 31) into parameter
“62”.

CAUTION:
-The address value set (parameter 62) for the receiver will be identical for RS485 and USB outputs.
-The following informations define the communication protocol for the CSU 3 receiver, which is valid for
both RS485 and USB outputs.

 4.8 Setting the detection « motion gauge »
The receiver includes a mechanical detector for
gauge level movement and/or for the transmitter. A
mechanical fault is indicated by displaying « F » on P1 = Emptying check
the receiver screen and switching the four relays, P2 = No check
contact between « C» and « NO». P3 = Filling check
This function can be activated when filling or
emptying the tank by causing a short-circuit 3 positions C
between terminals « C » and « F » (position P3) for rotary
filling and terminals « C and E » (position P1) for switch
emptying. P1 P3
P2
If there is no short-circuit (position P2), the receiver
will not carry out a check.
The receiver goes to default mode when a short-circuit happens between the three terminals « C, F et E ».

The receiver checks the filling and/or emptying time in order to detect any mechanical blockage of the sensor
or the float gauge on which the sensor is mounted.

It is necessary first to define the time (expressed in minutes) needed for the volume to vary by a certain
amount (expressed in %). This applies also to filling and emptying.

The times and volumes must be expressed in units without decimal points.

Finally, it is necessary to enter (two or four) values in the CSU receiver software.

Parameter 71 Filling level [expressed in %] 3% (for example)

Parameter 72 Filling time [expressed in minutes] 1 minute (for example)
Parameter 73 Emptying level [expressed in %]
Parameter 74 Emptying time [expressed in minutes]

Procedure :

When filling:
- Turn the rotary switch to P3 (or introduce a short-circuit between C and F)
- Proceed to physical tank filling.
- The receiver calculates the time (specified in parameter 72) necessary for the volume to increase by a
certain percentage (specified in parameter 71). If the predefined volume (P71) is not reached in the
predefined time (P72), the receiver considers that the conditions have not been met and indicates this by
displaying « F », flashing the four red level LEDs and switching the four relays to the default position, see
page 14 (the short-circuit between C and F must be eliminated so the CSU receiver can return to normal
operation).
- Once filling is complete, turn the switch to P2 (or short-circuit C-F).

In our example, (see green box above), P71 = 03 (3 %) and P72 = 01 (1 minute). In this case, the receiver
checks whether the volume transmitted by the sensor in 1 minute has well changed by a minimum 3%. If it
has not, the receiver considers that the conditions have not been met, displays « F », flashes the four red
level LEDs and switched the four relays, see page 14.

When emptying:
- Turn the rotary switch to P1 (or introduce a short-circuit between C and E).
- Proceed to physical tank emptying.
- The receiver calculates the time (specified in parameter 74) necessary for the volume to decrease by a
certain percentage (specified in parameter 73). If the predefined volume (P73) is not reached in the
predefined time (P74), the receiver considers that the conditions have not been met and indicates this by
displaying « F », flashing the four red level LEDs and switching the four relays to the default position, see
page 14 (the short-circuit between C and E must be eliminated so the CSU receiver can return to normal
operation).
- Once emptying is complete, turn the switch to P2 (or short-circuit C-E).

 TROUBLESHOOTING
This section covers the most often encountered faults resulting from incorrect manipulation of the receiver program or
following a connection problem.

If a fault is found, carefully check the various connections before suspecting the faulty operation of a single item. Also
check the compatibility of the different devices connected to the CSU receiver.

If no solution is found, carry out a full RESET of the receiver, then reprogram it. If the fault is still present, proceed as
follows:
-note down the serial number of the receiver and transmitter
- note down all the different devices connected to the receiver
- describe the fault as closely as possible
- provide your supplier with this information. This will permit him to assist you as quickly as possible.
