CS470/CS471 Compact Bubbler System
1. Introduction
The CS470 and CS471 are designed for general liquid level measurements.
They use SDI-12 or RS-232 communications protocols to communicate with a
SDI-12 or RS-232 recorder simplifying installation and programming.
2. Cautionary Statements
• READ AND UNDERSTAND the Precautions section at the front of this
manual.
• Remember that although the CS470/CS471 is designed to be a rugged and
reliable device for field use, it is also a highly precise scientific instrument
and should be handled as such.
• NEVER open the housing of the CS470/CS471. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside the sensor housing and any attempt to disassemble
the device will void the warranty.
• While connecting the tubing, keep contamination or moisture from
entering the tubing.
• Do not damage or kink the tubing during installation.
• Always use a sharp knife instead of scissors to cut the tubing.
3. Initial Inspection
• Upon receipt of the CS470/CS471, inspect the packaging for any signs of
shipping damage, and, if found, report the damage to the carrier in
accordance with policy. The contents of the package should also be
inspected and a claim filed if any shipping related damage is discovered.
• Care should be taken when opening the package not to damage or cut the
polyethylene tubing (if ordered). If there is any question about damage
having been caused to the tubing, a thorough inspection is prudent.
• The model number and serial number is printed on the housing. Check
this information against the shipping documentation to ensure that the
expected model number was received.
• Refer to Section 3.1, Shipping Kit and Accessories, to ensure you have all
of the components
