5 Functions and features
The unit continuously detects the level of liquids and viscous media in tanks and
generates output signals according to the parameter settings.
2 outputs are available. They can be set separately.
OUT1
Switching signal for level limit value / IO-Link
OUT2
• Analogue signal proportional to level 4...20 / 20...4 mA
or
• switching signal for level limit value
For correct function the unit needs a sufficiently large metal launching
surface / launching plate ("antenna"). It is necessary for transferring the
microwave pulse to the tank with optimum transmission power
Function).
For installation in closed metal tanks / metal bypass pipes, the tank lid /
upper pipe section serves as a launching surface / launching plate. For
installation in open tanks and plastic tanks, a sufficiently large holding
device, a metal plate or similar must be used. More information
5.1 Applications
• Suitable for food and hygienic areas due to food-grade materials and hygienic
installation options.
• Detection of almost all media, even extremely adhering or non-conductive
ones.
• Multiple installation options via a large number of available mounting and
welding adapters (e.g. Clamp, pipe fitting, Varivent).
