Switching behavior: On/Off
Function
3-wire DC-PNP:
Positive voltage signal at the switch output of the electronics (PNP), switching capacity 200 mA
2-wire AC/DC:
Load switching in the power supply line, switching capacity 250 mA
The device has two operating modes: maximum safety (MAX) and minimum safety (MIN).
By choosing the corresponding operating mode, the user ensures that the device also switches in a
safety-oriented manner even in an alarm condition, e.g. if the power supply line is disconnected.
• Maximum safety (MAX)
The device keeps the electronic switch closed as long as the liquid level is below the fork. Sample
application: overfill prevention
• Minimum safety (MIN)
The device keeps the electronic switch closed as long as the fork is immersed in liquid. Sample
application: Dry running protection for pumps
The electronic switch opens if the limit is reached, if a fault occurs or the power fails (quiescent
current principle).
