Function
This signal conditioner provides the AC measuring voltage for the levelsensing electrodes.
Once the measured medium reaches the electrodes, the unit reacts by energizing a form C changeover relay contact.
The module is voltage and temperature stabilized and guarantees defined switching characteristics. An electronic holding circuit is used that
allows minimum/maximum control. Since the conductance of the media may vary, the relay response sensitivity is adjustable.
The normal output state can be reversed through the mode of operation switch S1.

Indication and operation
Control elements switch S1
Position I open circuit current: In the open circuit current principle, the relay becomes
active when the limit is reached.
Position II closed circuit current: In closed circuit current principle, the relay is activated
when power is applied. The relay is deactivated when the limit is reached.
