Overview
Level relays are used for the monitoring and control of conductive,
non-combustible liquids and powders. They ensure overflow
and dry run protection. Due to their sensor performance, the
devices can also be used for general resistance monitoring.
LED displays:
-
Green LED: lights up when operational voltage is applied
-
Yellow LED: lights up if MIN output relay is activated
-
Red LED: lights up if MAX output relay is activated.

Benefits
The measuring range up to 450 k enables a differentiation
between foam and liquid. It also increases the universal
application for resistance measurements.
Due to its low-frequency, electrically isolated measuring circuit,
the device has a high immunity to interference against system
coupling, which enables cable lengths of up to 1500 m and
suppresses the effects of electrolysis in the liquid.
•
The two outputs for minimum and maximum control can also
be used for the advance warning and tripping of limit values.
• 3
electrode connections for 1-step and 2-step level control
•
All standard products can be used as electrodes
•
High immunity to interference of the measuring circuit isolated
from the system
•
Programmable for open-circuit principle (with bridge X2 COM)
or closed-circuit principle (without jumper)
