3 Functions and features
The unit monitors the level of liquid, viscous and powdery media in tanks and pi-
pes� It can be used for limit detection and run-dry protection� The separate setting
of two switching thresholds enables the detection of two different media (can be
used, for example, for phase separation or differentiation of media)�
3.1 Applications
• Detection of almost all media, even extremely adhering or non-conductive
ones�
• The sensitivity is preset at the factory� Easy set-up possible without any pro-
gramming (plug and play)�
•
Sensitivity can be set by user, if required (→ 8 Parameter setting).
• Available process connections: G 1/2�
G 1/2 is available in two versions: for front installation (Fig� 3-1) and for rear
installation (Fig. 3-2 and → 5.2.2).
