DEVICE DESCRIPTION 2

2.2 System description

Inputting physical quantities into an SPC or PLC or other computer and control systems requires accurate and reliably working sensors. The sensor is a detecting element that converts physical quantities, such as temperature, level, pressure, conductivity, turbidity and flow, into an electrical signal. Locally further processed, usually by an integrated microcontroller, the measuring signal can be transmitted by analogue (e.g. 4...20 mA loop). The LS 6600 is designed to detect the level of liquids or for pump protecting purposes.

2.3 Nameplate

INFORMATION!

Look at the device nameplate to ensure that the device is delivered according to your order. Check for the correct supply voltage printed on the nameplate.

The important technical values are engraved on the device body.
