WARNING
For detection of empty sensor the min. conductivity must always be >50 μS/cm and the max.
length of the electrode cable when remote mounted is 50 meters (164 ft). Special cable must
be used!
For remote MID installations the max. cable length is 3 meters (9.8 ft). For other CT application
standard requirements are applicable.
