Important Notes
Usage for the intended purpose
Use level electrode NRG 26-40 only in conjunction with switching controller NRS 2-40 or level controller
NRR 2-40 for level indication in electrically conductive or non-conductive liquids.
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 of 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
The level electrode NRG 26-40 works according to the capacitance measurement principle.
The NRG 26-40 is used for signalling different levels in conductive and non-conductive liquids:
■
Water level maintained within the control band defined by two preset limits.
Use level electrode NRG 26-40 in combination with level switch type NRS 2-40 or further system
components. The level data are transferred to the level switch or another system component via the
CAN data bus, adopting the CANopen protocol.
Function
The principle of capacitance measurement is applied to determine the level.
The electrode rod and the vessel wall form the plates of a capacitor. If the level of the dielectric located
between these two capacitor plates changes, the current which flows through the plates changes
proportionally to the level. A dielectric is by definition an insulating substance, which excludes many
liquids such as water. In order to receive a useful measuring result the measuring rod, which is
submerged to varying depths in the liquid, must be completely insulated.
After the calibration of the zero point/measuring range (0 %/100 %) the level can be read off from a
remote display unit. The level measuring range can be changed during operation.
At regular intervals the level electrode NRG 26-40 sends a data telegram to the level switch NRS 2-40
or level controller NRR 2-40. The data transfer is effected by means of a CAN bus according to DIN ISO
11898 using the CANopen protocol.

Corrosion resistance
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.
