Introduction to the Product

The sensor ESCORT TD-150 determines the fill level of light oils in reservoirs (storage tanks). It is used as a fuel sensor in the automotive engineering field, and also as a level sensor for any light oils in industrial applications. The sensor converts the calculated fuel level into a digital code, frequency, or analog signals. It is a complete, finished solution.

To ensure explosion protection, it is necessary to connect a resistor of the appropriate rating to the power supply circuit. The presence of a resistor depends on the scope of delivery.

Device Configuration

  1. Connect the sensor to the RS-485 port on the device.
  2. Open the Escort Configurator tool.
  3. Connect the COM Port and select FLS. The value present in the sensor will load.
  5. If the sensor is in **periodic mode**, data will be sent every 2 seconds (fixed interval).
  6. If the sensor is in **passive mode**, data will be sent only on request.
  8. Connect using the QCOM tool to verify whether the fuel data is visible after configuring parameters for the connected fuel sensor.
