Model 805 Smart RF
Level Transmitter
D E S C R I P T I O N
The Kotron
®
805 Smart Transmitter is a loop-powered,
24 VDC, liquid-level transmitter based on proven
RF Capacitance technology. Encompassing a number of
significant engineering accomplishments, this high per-
formance RF level transmitter is designed to provide
reliable measurement performance well beyond that of
competitive units.
The innovative dual-compartment enclosure is a first
in the industry, orienting the wiring and electronics
in the same plane, and angled to maximize ease of instal-
lation, setup, and data display.
T E C H N O L O G Y
The Kotron 805 combines the proven technology of
RF Capacitance with advanced signal processing tech-
niques and convenient user features. As the level rises
and falls in a tank or vessel, the amount of capacitance
developed between the sensing probe and the tank wall
(or ground) also rises and falls. This change in capaci-
tance is digitized for display and HART
®
communications
(optional) and converted into a proportional 4–20 mA
analog output signal.

MEDIA:
Liquids or slurries; hydrocarbons to water-based
media (dielectric 1.5–100).
VESSELS:
Most process or storage vessels up to rated
probe temperature and pressure.
CONDITIONS:
All level measurement and control appli-
cations including process conditions exhibiting visible
vapors, surface agitation, bubbling, high fill/empty rates
and low product level.
Kotron 805 operates on a remarkably low amount of
current. A microprocessor controls the measurement
engine, drives the liquid crystal display, enables key-
pad operation, controls HART communications and
provides a 4–20 mA output.
A separate wiring compartment isolates the
power/signal conductors from the electronics compart-
ment via a sealed feed-through. The compartment is
designed to maximize ease of wiring and includes
surge and transient protection.
The unique enclosure is conveniently angled at 45° to
facilitate ease of setup and configuration, and to
maximize readability of the liquid crystal display.
• Easy Operation
• Powerful Self Diagnostics
The Kotron 805 employs the latest RF Capacitance
measurement techniques. The LCD with two-line display
provides a software menu which is very user-friendly
featuring push-button calibration, diagnostics, and trou-
bleshooting. HART communication provides the ultimate
for calibration, configuration, and diagnostics.
• Simple Calibration
The 805 offers enhanced self diagnostics previously
found only on more powerful line-powered instruments.
Self diagnostics specifically include continuous check of
the electronics plus probe. Error codes and measurement
of nominal capacitance assist in calibration and trou-
bleshooting.
Setting of the calibration points of the 805 is easy and
requires minimum level change.
