Input variable
Measured variable
The measured variable is the intensity of the gamma ra-
diation of an isotope. If the radiation intensity decreases,
e.g. due to increasing product density, the measured
value of MINITRAC 31 changes in proportion to the
density.

Switching input
Ʋ Type of input - Open Collector
10 mA
Ʋ Type of input - Relay contact
100 mA
Output variable - Level measurement
Output
Ʋ Signal
digital output signal, Foundation Fieldbus protocol
