Details: KFA5-ER-1.W.LB

Function

This signal conditioner provides the AC measuring voltage for the level sensing electrodes.

Once the measured medium reaches the electrodes, the unit reacts by energizing a form C changeover relay contact.

The module is voltage and temperature stabilized and guarantees a defined switching characteristic.

It can be used for on/off control or minimum/maximum control. A signal delay feature is available and is adjustable between 0.5 s and 10 s.

This module can also monitor the field circuit for lead breakage (LB). LB is indicated by a red LED. If LB monitoring is selected, output II serves as the fault signal output; otherwise, it will follow the function of output I.
