1. Introduction

The R718PA22 is a wireless communication device that measures the liquid level with an ultrasonic liquid level sensor.

Ultrasonic liquid level sensor installed at the bottom of the container, it may measure water, gasoline, diesel and small, medium,

large capacity storage tanks (metal, plastic, glass material). R718PA22 main unit and the ultrasonic liquid level sensor

communicate via RS485 interface, and the detected data is sent to the other equipment shown which employs compliance

LoraWANTM wireless communication protocol standards.

LoRa Wireless Technology:

LoRa is a wireless communication technology dedicated to long distance and low power consumption. Compared with other

communication methods, LoRa spread spectrum modulation method greatly increases to expand the communication distance.

Widely used in long-distance, low-data wireless communications. For example, automatic meter reading, building automation

equipment, wireless security systems, industrial monitoring. Main features include small size, low power consumption,

transmission distance, anti-interference ability and so on.

LoRaWAN:

LoRaWAN uses LoRa technology to define end-to-end standard specifications to ensure interoperability between devices and

gateways from different manufacturers.

6. Data Report

When the device is powered on, it will immediately send a version report and a report of the liquid level status, depth and

temperature.

Before any configuration, the device sends data according to the default configuration.

Default setting:

Max time: Max Interval

Minimum time: Min Interval (detect the current voltage value every Min Interval by default)

Battery Voltage Change: 0x01 (0.1V) //R718PA22 is power by adapter, the value invalid

Depth Change: 0x0001 (1mm)

TemperatureChange: 0x01 (1 ℃)

Note:

The data transmission period of the device has been programmed.

The interval between two reports must be the minimum time

When Battery is 0x00, it represents powered by DC/AC power source

The data report can be decoded by the Netvox LoRaWANApplication Command document and

http://www.netvox.com.cn:8888/page/index

7.Installation

The data obtained by the ultrasonic level sensor is the actual liquid height + the thickness of the bottom of the container.

The container material can be metal or plastic.

During the installation test, different test liquids (water, diesel, gasoline) can be configurated first.

7.1 Install the sensor at the bottom of the container / tank:

1. Power on first to see if the sensor is working normally.

The red light flashing on the sensor indicates that the sensor can work normally, as shown in the figure.

2. Place the container or tank in a horizontal position, preferably the angle between the container or tank and the horizontal plane

is less than 2 degrees.

3. Make sure the container / tank is full or at least 2/3 of the liquid.

4. Find best check-point for installing the sensor (the bottom of the container should be kept clean).

a. Apply some coupling gel on the sensor surface.

b. Place the sensor on the bottom of the container / tank; gently move to find the correct test point and draw a circle around

the test point.

5. Clean the checkpoint and the sensor surface, and prepare to fix the sensor to the container / tank.

6. Apply AB glue to the surface of the sensor, stick the sensor to the inspection point of the container / tank, and keep it for a

while until it is fixed.

7. If the installation is correct, the device reports the installation status in REPORT as 00, otherwise, it’s 01.

8. When the thickness of the bottom of the steel container is more than 8mm, or the thickness of the bottom of the glass or plastic

container is more than 10mm, the ultrasonic liquid level sensor can not measure normally.

9.The ultrasonic level sensor has high ultrasonic energy; therefore, when the measured liquid is water,

the water level must be higher than 50cm that can make the measured data reach 1% accuracy.

7.2 How to find the correct detection point

Check the reported installation information.

“0”means that it can be installed at this detection point

“1”means it cannot be installed at this detection point

When selecting the correct detection point, pay attention to the following points:

(1)Ensure that the working surface of the sensor is in a horizontal position, and the working surface is parallel to the liquid

level in the tank; the radiation axis of the sensor is perpendicular to the horizontal direction. As the picture shows in below:

(2)The 1, 2, and 4 points in below figure are not suitable for mounting sensors because they are too close to the tank wall or

have obstacles.

Point 5 is not suitable because it is not horizontal.

Position 3 is suitable for mounting the sensor.
