4.2  Function 

 

The  detection  is  done  by  a  conductive  measuring  principle,  which  requires  a  minimum 
conductivity of the liquid. The conductivity of the medium is measured in the unit µS/cm. The 
conductive  measuring  method  makes  two  statements:  electrode  immersed,  or  electrode 
immersed. 
The  measuring  unit  (MU-3)  can  be  equipped  with  up  to  4  probes.  Their  spacing  can  be 
determined by the customer. 
Both the measuring unit and the control unit have 2 independent electronic circuits with their 
own processors. All processors perform a regular self-check for internal errors of the electronic 
circuits. 
The control unit (CU-3) processes the acquired signals and controls the downstream functions. 
It is installed in a steel housing (IP65/NEMA4X). In the switch housing there are two lamps per 
electrode (water=green, steam=red), normal operation (green LED), water alarm (yellow) and 
system error (yellow):

One contact (SPDT) is permanently connected as a signal contact for device errors. Signalling 
(e.g. for PLC) for the 4 probes is done via a separate output contact each.  Each processor 
controls its own relay per contact, whereby the output contacts are only switched when both 
processors signal the normal operating state in unison. In addition, a 4mA - 20mA interface is 
available as an output. For each immersed probe, the output is increased by the corresponding 
proportion (16 mA / number of probes). In the event of an error, the output goes to 2 mA. 

Programming is done via 4 buttons and a 2-row LCD display with 16 characters each. The 
LCD display is also used for local error indication, such as failure of a supply, probe error, 
display error (water over steam), electronic error as well as cable error (break or short 
circuit). The local display, which is visible from a distance, informs the user of the system 
status. If a fault occurs in the system, it is displayed immediately.
