    4 sleeve segments for M12 and G 1/2”; 8 sleeve parts for G1” Attention! In order to avoid deforming or red-hot turning of the sleeve, pauses between individual sleeve segments should be sufficient enough to allow cooling down of the sleeve. Page 6 LNK K06/0422...
  • Page 7: Electrical Connection

     We recommend the use of wires with cross sectional area of min. 0,25 mm² Attention! A wrong connection of the plug pins can damage the unit’s electronic! 7.1. Connection without evaluating electronic (head transmitter) Model LNK-...00K, LNK-...00S Reference: wall of vessel (only possible with an electrical conductive connection to the metal tank)
