Section 2 General information
The information in this manual has been carefully checked and is
believed to be accurate. However, the manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for any inaccuracies that may be contained in this
manual. In no event will the manufacturer be liable for direct,
indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages resulting
from any defect or omission in this manual, even if advised of the
possibility of such damages. In the interest of continued product
development, the manufacturer reserves the right to make
improvements in this manual and the products it describes at any
time, without notice or obligation.
Revised editions are found on the manufacturers web site.
DANGER
Indicates a potentially or imminently hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WA R N I N G
Indicates a potentially or imminently hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that may result in minor or
moderate injury.
Notice
Indicates a situation that, if not avoided, could result in damage to the
instrument. Information that requires special emphasis.
This symbol, if noted on the instrument, references the instruction manual for operation
and/or safety information.
7
General information
Electrical devices marked with this symbol may after August 12, 2005 no longer be disposed of in unsorted
domestic or industrial waste Europe-wide. In conformity with European local and national regulations (EU
Directive 2002/96/EC), European electrical equipment users must now return old or end-of life equipment to
the manufacturer for disposal This is free for the consumer.
Note: Obtain instructions on the correct disposal of all (marked and not marked) electrical products that were
supplied or manufactured by the manufacturer at the relevant sales office.

General information
Echos from layers that are further away are quieter (weaker) than
those which are closer. The SONATAX sc compensates for this
attenuation. The result is indicated on the SONATAX sc as a profile.
The data is found in the probe menu SENSOR SETUP > TEST /
MAINT > SIGNALS in the profile list (refer to PROFILE LIST on
9
General information
page 26) ((2) Figure 3). The graphic display (for example sc1000)
shows the profile in the measurement operation as a graphic ((1)
Figure 3).

Section 3 Installation
DANGER
The installation described in this section of the user manual should only
be performed by qualified and specialized personnel. The sensor is not
suitable for installation in hazardous areas.

3. Then assemble the tank edge attachment there and install the
probe.
16
Installation
Note: Should the reflex list not contain the tank depth (possible when there
is a lot of sludge above the floor), the tank depth must be determined in
another way (e.g. measuring).
Important note: The value entered in the TANK DEPTH menu item
must in no case be larger than the actual tank depth. This could
lead to incorrect measurement values.
17
Installation
The software also shows and saves all important measurement and
configuration parameters, such as the reflex list, measurement
values, limit values and all advanced settings, such as response
time, frequency, amplitude, angle and temperature.
Take further information from the SLUDGE DOCTOR user manual
DOC013.98.90411.
18
Installation
The image shows the empty thickener after the adjustment. The
result 3.18 m is correct.
19
Installation
If the sludge increases so far that the sludge level is above the
measurement range (the measurement range begins from 0.2 m
beneath the sensor), it can occur that no sludge level is detected
(SENSOR MEASURE error message). In this case, the application
must be checked.
20
Installation
21
Installation
Fade out this disruption in SENSOR SETUP > CALIBRATE > ADV.
SETTINGS > FADE-OUT in the range of 0.50.8 m. The sensor
now ignores all signals in this range and finds the correct
measurement value at 2.13 m.
The image shows the same profile as before, but with another
threshold and measurement value.
In this application, the sludge cloud should be measured as an
early warning system (for example sludge drift in the final
clarification tank).
Change of the automatic threshold SENSOR SETUP >
CALIBRATE > ADV. SETTINGS > THRESHOLD AUTO to 25 %.
The automatic threshold detects the sludge cloud.

strength of the transmission pulse.
A new measurement can be started.
A profile is calculated from the ultrasound echo and shown for the corresponding
depths respectively as profile strength. The profile is similar in its curve with the TS
PROFILE LIST
profile of the tank. At an average solid content, the values are in the order of 1.
A new measurement can be started. (See Figure 3 on page 10)

FREQUENCY The resonance frequency of the ultrasound transducer is shown.
AMPL DIAG The resonance voltage of the ultrasound transducer is shown.
To determine the sludge level, a profile is first calculated from the ultrasonic echo.
This roughly returns the solid content depending on the tank depth. The sludge level
THRESHOLD
is assigned to the tank depth where the profile exceeds the threshold for the first
time.
On activation, the resonance profile of the ultrasound transducer is shown instead of
the sludge profile (PROFILE LIST) as a graphic in the measurement window (only
SHOW AMPL. valid with sc1000). The resonance profile can be switched ON and OFF.
After switch-off, the sludge profile (PROFILE LIST) is shown on the measurement
window again.

Section 5 Maintenance
DANGER
Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks
described in this section of the document.
CAUTION
Obey the locally applicable accident prevention regulations. Wear
protective gloves where necessary during the change of the wiper
rubber.
The wiper arm (refer to item 3 in Figure 12) moves for the wiper
change into a central position.
2. Remove the guide screw (refer to item 2 in Figure 12) and take
off the wiper arm.
3. Pull the wiper profile (refer to item 1 in Figure 12) forward out of
the wiper arm.
4. Slide a new wiper profile with the bevel at the front into the
guide.
