VEGACAP 65 • - contactless electronic switch
30017-EN-130916
You can adapt the switching point to the solid with the potentiometer.
With the potentiometer (1) and the measuring range selection switch
(2) you can change the sensitivity of the probe to the electrical proper-
ties of the product and the conditions in the vessel. This is necessary
so that the level switch can also reliably detect products e.g. with very
low or very high dielectric figure.
range 1: 0 … 20 pF
Range 2: 0 … 85 pF
Range 3: 0 … 450 pF
With the mode switch (3) you can change the switching status of the
output. The required mode can be set according to the function chart.
max. - max. detection or overfill protection
min. - min. detection or dry run protection.
We recommend connecting according to the quiescent current prin-
ciple (contactless electronic switch is open when the switching point
is reached) because the contactless electronic switch takes on the
same (safe) condition if a failure is detected.
Control lamp for indication of the switching status
•
green = switch closed
•
red = switch open
•
red (flashing) = failure
The adjustment of the switching point is only possible in installed
condition.
The specifications in parenthesis refer to the preceding illustration.
Vertically mounted probes
1. Set mode switch (3) to mode max.
2. Set meas. range selection switch (2) to range 1.
3. Fill the vessel up to the requested level.
4. Turn potentiometer (1) to position 10.
When the control lamp (6) lights red: set the measuring range
selection switch (2) to the next higher measuring range.
When the control lamp (6) lights green: continue with the next
item.
5. Turn the potentiometer (1) very slowly anticlockwise until the
control lamp (6) lights red.
The measuring system is now ready for operation.
1. Set mode switch (3) to mode min.
2. Set meas. range selection switch (2) to range 1.
3. Lower the level to the requested min. level.
4. Turn the potentiometer (1) to 0, the control lamp (6) lights green.
5. Turn the potentiometer (1) very slowly clockwise until the control
lamp (6) lights red. If the control lamp does not light red, set the
