THEORY OF OPERATION

The KAM LRW™ Low Range Watercut / BS&W meter uses a patented microwave resonance technology, responding
to the differing electrical properties of water and oil to determine water content for ranges 0-3%, 0-5% and 0-10%.
The technology is highly repeatable and offers industry-leading accuracy (±0.03% up to 3% water). Additionally,
proprietary AnyDensity™ technology allows the instrument to compensate for any change in density across the entire
API gravity range. Compensation is based on a density input from a mass flow meter or densitometer and all com-
pensation is automatic. This is paramount in situations where a single truck or rail unloading site could see swings in
API gravity from the 20s to the 70s.

The unit can be calibrated and verified in line.

The LRW's high-quality components are made and assembled entirely in the USA, providing reliable and consistent
performance for long-term use.

INSTALLATION FLOW AND LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

KAM HIGHLY RECOMMENDS VERTICAL INSTALLATIONS WHEREVER POSSIBLE FOR OPTIMAL MIXING. For LACT
units, truck unloading risers, etc., KAM recommends installation of the LRW in the vertical flow up, immediately after
the pump (OPTION 1) or in the vertical flow down after a static mixer (OPTION 2). For other options, please consult
with the KAM factory.

Static Mixer

Q Q

PLEASE NOTE: In all KAM LRW Installations, the user should ensure that the KAM LRW is installed in a turbulent
flow with the Reynolds Number above 2000. Additionally, all KAM LRW's should be installed in accordance with
API MPMS Chapter 8, Section 2, Table 1, and in accordance with KAM mixing recommendations.

CAUTION: When installing the LRW® sensor in a pipeline containing petroleum products,
petrochemicals, waste waters with the presence of pressure & temperature, and high-pressure steam refer to the
Pipeline Operators’ "Health, Safety and Environmental Policy Procedures" to ensure safe installation.

LRWMANUAL 0420 5 KAM CONTROLS, INC.

I N S TA L L AT I O N c o n t i n u e d

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Remove all the protective packaging materials, and ensure that the LRW® sensor was not damaged
during transit. DO NOT discard provided cables and adaptors as they are required for ongoing calibration and
troubleshooting.

It is always recommended that the LRW NOT be installed in direct sunlight, and in high-ambient-temperature
installations that it be installed with recommended sunshade.

In cold weather, if LRW is exposed to an open environment, KAM CONTROLS recommends operators insulate
the LRW, and if the pipeline is heated that the heating trace be extended to include the LRW.

If the pipeline is not going to flow for extended amount of time and the pipe is not heated, then LRW should be
taken out to avoid damage to the sensor probe by freezing water.

LRW FLOW THROUGH ASSEMBLY

Flow through (spool) units will be shipped partially assembled. LRW unit can be wired prior to insertion into the spool
for convenience, but this is not required.

INSERTABLE/RETRACTABLE INSTALLATION

The KAM® LRW sensor should be installed

according to FIG. 3-3. A full-opening ball valve is FIG. 3-3 KAM® LRW INSTALLED ON A MAIN PIPE
used to isolate the LRW sensor from the pipeline
during installation or removal. The seal housing of
the LRW sensor allows the probe to be inserted
and removed from the pipe under pressure and flow
conditions. It is the user’s responsibility to
ensure that the LRW sensor be placed at the most Locking Collar
representative point within the flow profile (see
location recommendations above). The LRW Seal Housing
sensor should be inserted so that the window of
the probe is located in the center of the diameter of Full-opening
the pipeline. Instructions for proper insertion dis- Ball Valve
tance on insertable models follow below.

Note: If line pressure exceeds 100 psi, use a KAM®

IT Insertion Tool when installing/removing
the KAM® LRW sensor.

Socket cap screws

1. Prior to mounting verify that the the probe is

retracted as far as possible inside the seal FIG. 3-4
housing. The tip of the probe will extend slightly
from the end of the seal housing.
FIGS. 3-4, 3-5.

2. If sensor is not retracted inside the seal

housing, pull the shaft back until the probe rests
against the mechanical stop inside the seal
housing and use a 3/8" Allen wrench to tighten
the Socket Cap Screws on the locking collar. This FIG. 3-5
will prevent the LRW shaft from sliding and the

10. Re-tighten the Socket Cap Screws.

11. Using a 3/4" wrench, tighten the hex nuts holding down the Locking Collar one half turn. (FIG. 3-8) These should
never be over-tightened. Their major function is to apply light pressure on the chevron packing to ensure a seal
between the seal housing body and the insertion shaft.

REMOVING AN INSERTABLE LRW SENSOR

To remove the LRW sensor, first shut off power to the instrument. Loosen the Socket Cap Screws on the Lock Down
Collar, using a 3/8" Allen wrench. Slide the LRW sensor upward until the probe rests inside the seal housing. There is
a mechanical stop when the unit is fully retracted. Retighten the Socket Cap Screws. Next, close the Full-opening Ball
Valve tightly. Drain oil from valve if possible. The LRW sensor may now be unbolted from the system.

Note: If line pressure exceeds 100 psi, use a KAM® IT Insertion Tool when installing/removing the KAM® LRW sensor.

Removal should be conducted in accordance with all regional and Class requirements.

REMOVING THE LRW® SENSOR FROM FLOW THROUGH SPOOLS

To remove the LRW® sensor, first shut off power to the

instrument. Discontinue flow in loop from the main line and FIG. 3-9
drain fluid from loop. Using a 5/32" Allen wrench, remove
the (10) 32 x 5/8" hex screws with on collar (2" models) or 2" LRW flow through model
unscrewed from spool body (3" and 4" models) uisng the

WIRING

The KAM LRW Low Range Watercut shall be connected by means of suitable cable entries or conduit systems,
which meet the requirements of IEC 60079-1, sections 13.1 and 13.2, and for which a separate examination
certificate has been issued.

Cable entries (conduit threads) and sealing plugs of simple designs must not be used. Should the LRW be
connected by means of a conduit entry which has been approved for this purpose, the appertaining sealing
device shall be provided immediately at the terminal box.

Openings not used shall be sealed in compliance with IEC 60079-1, section 11.8.

The connecting wire of the Oil Water Detector KAM OWD/ATD/LRW shall be installed to provide for permanent
wiring and adequate protection against mechanical damage.

If the temperature at entry fittings should exceed 70 °C, the connecting cables used have to be of the
temperature-resistant type.

TheLRW has to be included into the local equipotential bonding.

The connecting wire of the LRW has to be installed in an enclosure which complies with the requirements of an
accepted type of protection acc. to IEC 60079-0, section 1, if the connection takes place in an area with poten-
tially explosive atmosphere. It is also recommended that the LRW be wired with flexible wiring/conduit with
additional slack/length in the wire to accommodate insertion, removal, and testing.

The LRW supplies power for the loop. Make sure the device that receives data from the LRW does not have a
power source of its own switched on. Also, the LOOP+ and LOOP- are isolated inputs from the chassis/earth. Do
not connect either to a common ground. Use an isolator if necessary.

ON-LINE CALIBRATION AND VERIFICATION OF THE KAM® LRW®

PLEASE NOTE: The following calibration steps are to be conducted during initial installation with existing process
conditions; during routine verification procedures; or when LRW readings indicate a slight drift off acceptable
accuracies in continuous operation. You will need an RS232 cable (supplied) or an RS232/USB adapter (supplied), a
PC equipped with RealTerm software, and a means for manually collecting and measuring samples.

1. Connect PC to the LRW sensor via supplied RS232 serial port or RS232/USB adapter. Launch RealTerm and follow
steps indicated on pages 15-18 to configure RealTerm.

2. Manually draw (3) samples of fluid according to API MPMS Chapter 8.1, waiting at least 15 minutes between
samples.

3. Each time a sample is drawn, note value or take a screenshot of the current % water LRW reading in the
RealTerm window.

4. Determine water percentage in each sample using a KAM Karl Fischer Moisture Analyzer (recommended), or
other available method.

5. Average the water content from the three manual samples.

6. Average the water content from the three LRW readings or screenshots (first data column in RealTerm). Fig. 4-9

CALIBRATION EXAMPLE

Manual samples water content: LRW screenshots water content:

1. 2.51% 1. 2.60%

2. 2.75% 2. 2.91%

3. 2.62% 3. 2.70%

Average = 2.63% Average = 2.74%

Difference of averages:

2.74% - 2.63% = 0.11%

According to the averages, the LRW is reading 0.11% high.

Current reading: 3.0%

To adjust the LRW, the reading needs to be lowered by 0.11%.

3.0% – 0.11% = 2.89%.

This is the new value to be entered into the LRW.

CALIBRATION WITH LABORATORY RESULTS

In cases where on-site reference measurement (Karl Fischer or centrifuge) is not available, the LRW™ can be verified
after obtaining results of manual sample analysis at a laboratory.

1. Connect PC to the LRW™ sensor via supplied RS232 serial port or RS232/USB adapter and launch RealTerm. If
not already done, follow steps indicated on pages 15-18 to configure RealTerm.

2. Manually draw (3) samples of fluid according to API MPMS Chapter 8.1, waiting at least 15 minutes between
sample draws.

3. Each time a sample is drawn, note or take a screenshot of the current LRW™ reading in the RealTerm window.

4. Send the samples to the lab for water content determination.

5. Once results have been received from the lab, average the water content from the three samples. This value is
the "Lab observed % water."

6. Average the water content from the three LRW screenshots. This value is the "LRW observed % water."
NOTE: The "LRW observed % water" should be more than 0 and less than the maximum water % on the
calibration table.

7. Type "=pcal,<LRW observed % water>, <Lab observed % water>" in the command port under the "Send" tab
and click on "Send ASCII." In other words, if the LRW observed water was 1.5% and the Lab observed % water
was 1.75%, you would input "=pcal,1.5,1.75" FIG. 4-12

POWER CONNECTIONS

If you have not already checked the Terminal board for physical defects, please do so according to the instructions on
page 34 of this manual.

The LRW TERMINAL PCB has LEDs to indicate the status of the input power and on board voltages of the LRW. The
sections below provide instructions to verify if the LRW is powered up with the right voltages.

Please note:

LED1 Indicates voltage presence at the input voltage terminals.

LED 2 Indicates voltage presence at the 5V supply.
Lit LEDs do not necessarily indicate proper voltage.

CHECKING THE INPUT POWER

1. Use a voltmeter to check the POWER + and POWER - terminals and ensure that the voltage across them is
between 12-30 V DC (24 V DC is recommended).

2. If voltage is not within this range, check the field power supply and bring it within the limits above. Check again.
If it is still not within limits, contact KAM Controls for further assistance.

3. If the voltage across the input power terminals is within the specified limits, connect the red wire of a voltmeter
on the side of LED1 and the black to TP3/GND. FIG. 6-3. It should show the input voltage (12-30 V). This means
the LRW input power is working properly, proceed to next section ("Checking 5V DC supply").

If it does not show this voltage, either the fuse is blown or the lightning protection has been activated. The
instrument electronics need to be checked for additional damage. Please contact KAM Controls at
+1 713 784 0000 or email [email protected] for further assistance.

CHECKING 5V DC SUPPLY

Once the LRW input power has been verified as per instructions above, proceed to check the 5V DC supply:

1. Check LED2. If lit, power is flowing to the 5V circuit.

2. Proceed to verify the level of this 5V supply by connecting the red wire of the multimeter to TP1 and black wire
to TP3 (GND) Terminal. FIG. 6-3.

3. The DC voltage should read between 4.95V and 5.05V. This means the power supplies are operational, there
could be a fault in the other systems of the instrument. Contact KAM Technical Support for further assistance.

4. If the voltage is not within limits, the 5V power supply is nonfunctional. Return to the factory for repair.

5. If LED2 does not light up, the 5V DC supply may be damaged. Please contact KAM Technical Support at +1 713
784 0000 or [email protected] for further assistance.

LOOP TROUBLESHOOTING

If you have not already done so, follow the steps on page 34 of this manual to remove LCD cover and faceplate.

If the Loop water reading does not match the water % reading on the LRW local display, please follow
these instructions:

1. The LRW supplies power for the loop. Make sure the device that receives data from the LRW does not have a
power source of its own switched on. Also, the LOOP+ and LOOP- are isolated inputs from the chassis/earth. Do
not connect either to a common ground. Use an isolator if necessary.

2. Check the voltage across the LOOP+ and LOOP- terminals on the Terminal Board. It should read between 10V
and 12V. If not, contact KAM Controls for further assistance.

3. If the voltage across the Loop terminals is within the specified limits, make sure the loop is working properly by
switching the multimeter to ammeter mode and checking the current running through it without a load. The
current must correspond with the readings on the LCD display:

If it does, the 4-20mA wire from the LRW to the PLC may be damaged.
If it doesn't, contact KAM Technical Support for further assistance.

TROUBLESHOOTING CONTINUED

RS232 TROUBLESHOOTING

If experiencing either blank or a non-alphanumeric output on the LRW PC software or on the RS232 terminal (e.g.
RealTerm), please follow these instructions:

1. Make sure the communication settings are set as described on page 16 of this manual. Ensure the communica-
tion port is opened in the terminal software.

2. Follow steps 1 through 4 on the previous section ("Loop Troubleshooting") to access the terminal board of the
LRW.

3. Check the RS232 wires connected to the LRW terminals for damage and ensure they are installed as per the wir-
ing diagram on page 11 of this manual. Replace wires if necessary.

4. Use a multimeter to measure voltage as described below. Please note the red wire on the multimeter should be
connected to RS232 terminals and the black wire to GND.

RS232 RXD (LRW data input line) to GND terminal should be between -5V and -12V.
RS232 TXD (LRW output line) to GND terminal should be should be between -5V and -12V.

If the voltages are not within this range, the RS232 circuit may be damaged. Contact KAM Technical Support for fur-
ther instructions.

If either the RS232 RXD or the RS232 TXD terminal voltages read 0V with respect to the GND terminal and the wire
connections are good, try reversing the RS232 RXD and RS232 TXD wires and check the output on the LRW PC soft-
ware (If using RealTerm, follow configuration procedure on pages 15 to 18).

If the issue continues, please contact KAM Technical Support for further assistance.

RS485 TROUBLESHOOTING

If not able to read MODBUS registers, please follow the instructions below.

NOTE: The RS585+ and RS485- lines in two wire mode are differential, so their voltage needs to me measured with
respect to each other to conform to the RS485 standards. The bias is provided by the master device.

1. RS485 is intended for MODBUS output. Check the activity LEDs on any RS485 converter connected to the RS485
terminals on the LRW.

If lit, verify the MODBUS registers and call KAM Technical Support for further assistance.

If not lit, follow steps 1 through 4 on the "Loop Troubleshooting" section on the previous page to access the
terminal board on the LRW. Proceed to use a voltmeter and connect the red wire on RS485+ and the black wire on
the RS485- terminal. Measure and take note of the voltages. Call KAM Technical Support for further assistance.
