Important Notes
Usage for the intended purpose
Use level electrode NRG 16-42 only in conjunction with level switch NRS 1-42.
Safety note
The equipment must only be installed and commissioned by qualified and adequately trained
personnel.
Maintenance and retrofitting must only by performed by entrusted personnel who – through adequate
training – have achieved a recognised level of competence.
Danger
When loosening the electrode live steam or hot water might escape.
This presents the danger of severe scalding. It is therefore essential not to dismantle
the electrode unless the boiler pressure is verified to be zero.
The electrode is hot during operation. This presents the risk of severe burns to hands
and arms. Installation and maintenance work should only be carried out when the
system is cold.
If the internal ceramic insulation breaks, hot steam can escape through the lateral vent
hole on the electrode body. This presents the risk of severe scalding. Do not stay near
the electrode during operation.
Attention
The name plate indicates the technical specification on the equipment.
Do not commission or operate equipment without a name plate.
ATEX (Atmosphère Explosible)
According to the European Directive 94/9/EC the equipment must not be used in explosion-risk areas.

Description
Ω
The level electrode NRG 16-42 works according to the conductivity measurement principle.
With the NRG 16-42 a maximum of 4 levels can be signalled in conductive liquids:
■4 levels with one switchpoint each.
■ High level (MAX) alarm, Low level (MIN) alarm, pump ON, pump OFF with one switchpoint each.
Use level electrode NRG 16-42 in combination with level switch type NRS 1-42 or further system
components. The level data are transferred to the level switch or another system component via
CAN data bus, using the CANopen protocol.
Function
The conductivity of the liquid is used to signal the liquid level. Some liquids are conductive, which
means that they allow an electric current to flow through them.
For the safe functioning of this device a minimum conductivity of the liquid to be measured is required.
The conductivity measurement method can detect two conditions: electrode rod submerged or
exposed, meaning switchpoint reached (or exceeded) or not yet reached. Before installation, the
length of the electrode rod must be cut to the required switching levels, e. g. for max./min. alarm,
controlling of a valve or pump.
At regular intervals the level electrode NRG 16-42 sends a data telegram to the level switch NRS 1-42.
The data are transferred via a CAN bus to DIN ISO 11898 using the CANopen protocol.

When used for its intended purpose the safe functioning of the electrode will not be impaired by
corrosion.
Sizing
The electrode body must not be subjected to sharp increases in pressure. Welds and flanges of the
electrode are designed to withstand dynamic loading (bending and alternating stress). The dimensional
allowances for corrosion reflect the latest state of technology.
