▪ This unit must be installed in accordance with the EMC guidelines (Electro Magnetic Compatibility). ▪ Do connect a proper grounding to the aluminum casing as indicated if the F090-A-PL has been supplied with the 115-230V AC power-supply type PM. The green / yellow wire between the back-casing and removable terminal-block may never be removed.
This operation manual describes the standard unit as well as most of the options available. For additional information, please contact your supplier. A hazardous situation may occur if the F090-A-PL is not used for the purpose it was designed for or is used incorrectly. Please carefully note the information in this operating manual indicated by the pictograms: A "warning"...
This manual describes the unit with an analog 4-20mA input type from the sensor "-A version". One sensor with an active 4-20mA signal output can be connected to the F090-A-PL. The F090-A-PL is powered from the loop (sensor signal) and does not require any additional external power supply.

The analogue output signal of a sensor does mirror a value. This value is measured several times a second by the F090-A-PL. The value measured is a "snap-shot" of the real signal as it will be fluctuating. With the help of this digital filter a stable and accurate reading can be obtained while the filter level can be set to a desired value.
