  • Page 5: Characteristics Of The Measurement Evaluation Unit Um-X

    Characteristics of the measurement evaluation unit UM-X The measurement evaluation unit UM-X is a stand-alone filling level display for continuous level sensors. It is directly driven from the power supply and serves at the same time as a power supply for the level sensor. The filling level can be presented in both analogue and digital form on the graphic display.
  • Page 6: Safety Instructions

    Safety Instructions The measurement evaluation unit UM-X is a stand-alone filling level display for continuous level sensors. Use the system exclusively for this purpose. The manufacturer accepts no liability for any form of damage resulting from improper use. The measurement evaluation unit UM-X has been developed, manufactured and tested in ac- cordance with the state-of-the art technology and the generally accepted safety standards.

  • Page 8: Alarm Light

    Alarm Light The measurement evaluation unit is equipped with a red LED “Alarm” to display alarms and system faults. The red LED indicates if the alarm thresholds have been exceeded or fallen below or if faults have occurred (see Section 6.15 „Alarms“). Buzzer The buzzer provides acoustic alarm messages.
  • Page 9: Installation

    Installation The installation must be carried out only by expert personnel and in accordance with all applicable safety regulations. This also applies to any local safety and ac- cident prevention regulations which are not stated in this guide. Assembly and Connections The measurement evaluation unit UM-X is designed to be wall-mounted.
  • Page 10: Pin Assignment

    Pin Assignment The wiring must be carried out only with the power disconnected. Special local rules and regulations of relevant Professional Associations and Authorities must be observed (e.g. VDE in Germany). Observe the maximum values of the operating parameters that are stated in the Technical Specifications.
