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.
