Failsafe Selection

High Level Failsafe Operation

·    DIP Switch SW1 position 5 is on.
·    If the electrical power fails, the relay turns off.  This indicates material

as if the tank were full.

Low Level Failsafe Operation

·    DIP Switch SW1 position 5 is off.
·    If the electrical power fails, the relay turns off.  This indicates material 

as if the tank were empty.

The output relay contacts are labeled in the un-powered alarm state.  The relay is energized
when the VRF-1000 is not alarmed.  This status may be opposite that of other Bindicator

®

brand units.  If the VRF-1000 is replacing an older Model RF-8000 or RF-9000 unit, 
connections will need to be opposite.  If a connection was made to NC1 terminal of the
RF8/9000, connect now to the NO1 terminal of the VRF-1000.  C1 and C2 connections
would remain the same.
