settings

Settings  are  performed  by  placing  the  magnetic  pen  on  the  sensitive 

spot  marked 

“+”

 or 

“–”

  located  beside  the  connector  or  cable  gland. 

This  method  is  used  to  set  the  sensitivity  to  the  measured  medium, 

switching  (O,  C),  with  or  without  the  presence  of  medium. The  third  func-

tion  is  designed  for  fine-tuning  the  sensor  sensitivity.  Upon  a  change 

in  the  measured  medium,  it  is  necessary  to  perform  new  limit  settings. 

Information on settings of the sensor are stated in the instructions for use.

A sensor with NPN or PNP output can be loaded only by resistive 
or inductive load. The positive pole of the supply voltage (+U) is 
connected to the brown wire

ative pole (0 V) is connected to the blue wire

capacitative loads and low resistance loads (bulb) are evaluated 
by the sensor as a short circuit. 
Wiring diagrams are provided in the figures on the right.
Note:  In  case  of  strong  ambient  electromagnetic  interference, 
paralleling of conductors with power distribution, or for the  distri-
bution to distance over 30 m, we recommend using shielded cable.

Sensors  RFLS-35 with type of cable outlet A, B, V or H are 
connected to assessing units permanently connected by PVC 
cable. Design diagrams are provided on page 3.

Sensors RFLS-35 with connection method type C (see page  
3) are connected to assessing units by means of a connector 
socket with compression cable (length 2 or 5 m), or by means of 
a connector socket without cable (see accessories). In this case 
the cable is connected to the inside pins of the socket according 
to the figure on the right. The recommended diameter of this 
cable is 4 to 6 mm (the recommended cross-sectional area is 
0.5 to 0.75 mm
