Establishing Functions Selecting function Before installing and commissioning the NRGS 15-1 ascertain the settings for the required functions. Five functions are available: Function 1 Code switch Default factory setting for equipment without pushbutton Toggle switch white 1 2 3 6 7 8 910...
Establishing Functions - continued - Note To set the functions, the time delay and the response sensitivity open the terminal box. To do so unscrew the cover screws ( and remove the housing cover ). After changing the settings replace the housing cover )and fasten the cover screws (. Establishing functions 1.
Establishing Functions - continued - Adjusting sensitivity range The default factory setting for the response sensitivity is ≥ 10 μS/cm. If the electrical conductivity of the boiler water is below 10 μS/cm at 25°C use the code switch & to change the response sensitivity.
Installation Note For the approval of the boiler standpipe the relevant regulations must be considered. Refer to page 18 for typical installation examples. Attention Install the level switch only in a vertical position. The seating surfaces of the standpipe or the flange provided on the vessel must be accurately machined, Fig.
Installation - continued - NRGS 15-1, step 1 1. Determine the measuring lengths of the electrode tips and enter the lengths in the table "Functions". 2. Cut the electrode tips 1 2 3 4 to lengths with a bolt cutter.

3. Undo the PE connection 0. 4. Unscrew the fixing screws 9 of the electronic module and take out the electronic module. The mod- ule is available as spare part. Stock code # NRGS 15-1 321357 NRV 1-47 230 V AC 5.
Removing and disposing of the level switch Danger When loosening the level electrode steam or hot water might escape. This presents the danger of severe scalds to the whole body. Do NOT remove the level switch unless the boiler pressure is verified to be 0 bar. The level switch becomes hot during operation.
Annex Adjust other functions The level switch assigns one switching channel to each electrode tip. The functions of the switching channels 1 and 4 are fixed, the switchting channels 2 and 3 can be adjusted via code switch & to suit individual requirements.
