• Operating instructions 4. Description This level switch instrument for solids NIR-9, has been designed to be used in all applications where the level of solids must be detected in tanks and silos. Example: Grain, cereal, flour, granulated plastics, cement, sand, feed, perlite, etc.
NIR.9 6. Mechanical connection NIR is normally mounted into the tank top (full level) or through the tank wall (full, middle or empty level). For side installation do not use NIR with mechanical extension (except NIR-96 / NIR-E96). NIR can be installed through a standard G1”, 1 1 ¼” G, G1 ½”, flange F1 Ø110 mm and flange F2 Ø200 mm.

NIR.9 7. Electrical connection WARNING! Be sure that power supply corresponds with the indicated in the equipment´s label. The supply voltage is connected to terminals L(+) and N(-). It is very important in case of continuous voltage, to respect the polarity. The device has polarity protection.
NIR.9 Sensitivity Adjustment NIR has 3 positions of sensitivity adjustment: high, medium and low (factory setting is medium). To adjust the sensitivity, be sure that the material reaches the rotation vane, if the motor is running it is necessary to increase the sensibility until the motor is stopped.
