Principles
Operating principle
General principle :
The ENRM monitors the levels of conductive liquids. The principle is based on measuring the apparent resistance of the liquid between two submerged
probes. When this value is lower than the preset threshold displayed on the unit’s front panel, the relay changes state. To prevent any occurrences of
electrolysis, an AC current is passed through the probes. A rotary switch on the front panel can be used to select the desired function and sensitivity
range. A level can be monitored using the 2
In this instance, the max. probe remains above the liquid and an adjustable time delay prevents the wave effect.
A green LED indicates that the supply voltage is present.
A yellow LED indicates the output relay’s state.
When the green and yellow LEDs are flashing, this indicates an incompatible adjustment position.

(level : 1 - on delay, function Up LS (Low Sensitivity : 250 Ω to 5 kΩ ), Up St (Standard
Sensitivity : 5 kΩ to 100 kΩ), Up HS (High Sensitivity : 50 kΩ to 1 MΩ).
When the level of liquid drops below the probe for a period exceeding the value of time delay T
set on the front panel, the relay energises and remains on until the level of liquid reaches the
probe again.
If the level of liquid returns above the level set before the time delay elapses, the relay does not
come on.
Note
When the power returns after a power break, the output relay only energises after time delay T if
the level of liquid is below the threshold.

The output relay remains open as long as the level of liquid has not reached the maximum probe.
Once the maximum level is reached the contact closes and the tank can then be emptied (valve
opened, pump started, etc). When the level drops below the minimum level the contact opens
and interrupts the emptying process.
Note : when monitoring two levels the time delay preventing the wave effect is not in operation.
Note
When the power returns after a power break, the output relay energises if the level of liquid is

The output relay remains on as long as the level of liquid has not reached the maximum probe.
As soon as the maximum level is reached the contact opens and pumping stops. When the level
drops below the minimum level the contact closes again and pumping restarts to bring the level of
liquid back up.

Other information
Note
The probe cable (maximum length 100 metres) does not have to be screened, but avoid mounting it in parallel with the power supply cables. A screened
cable can be used with the screening connected to the common terminal.
