Page 36: Speed When „On
Special functions 7.2.7. - Speed when „On“ This menu determines the calculated and displayed speed of the pump. If e.g. 30% is set here and the signal set in „PWM on/0-10V on“ is put out, 30% speed is displayed. When the signal set in „PWM max/0-10V max“ is put out, 100% speed is displayed. Everything in between is calculated accordingly. - Page 37 Special functions 7.2.8.b Technical data PWM and 0-10V Technical data PWM: PWM: 20% to 100%, 1kHz Designed for a load of 10K Ohm Technical data 0-10V: 10V = 100% Speed 0-10V: 2V to 10V (20% to 100%) 5V = 50% Speed Designed for a load of 10K Ohm.
