The overfill prevention system NB 220, consisting of a transducer and a level probe, may only be used to avoid overfilling of contain- ers. The overfill prevention system NB 220 is only suitable for operation with stationary containers and stationary-use containers used for the storage of the following liquids.
Any use other than the application explicitly permitted in this instruc- tion manual is not permitted. Predictable incorrect application The overfill prevention system NB 220 must never be used in the fol- lowing cases: • Hazardous area (Ex) and liquids If the device is operated in hazardous areas, sparks may cause deflagrations, fires or explosions.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for misprints. Product description The overfill prevention system NB 220 consists of a level probe and a transducer. The level probe and the transducer are connected by means of a two-wire signal cable.

LED at the transducer signals that the system is ready to operate. In addition, the alarm units mentioned above can also be connected. Transducer type NB 220 QSA The transducer converts the changes in resistance of the PTC ther- mistor into relay switching with binary signal output. The scanner in- tegrated into the transducer continuously monitors the function of the PTC thermistor.
