    Please read these operating instructions before unpacking and putting the unit into operation. Follow the instructions precisely as described herein. The instruction manuals on our website www.kobold.com are always for currently manufactured version of our products. Due to technical changes, the instruction manuals available online may not always correspond to the product version you have purchased.

    (min./max. control). Unlike to the NE-104 with only one limit value indication, one connection for a ground electrode and one min. and max. electrode, the relay NE-304 can observe two signals.

    6. Mechanical Connection The electrodes can for example be screwed into the tank cover and sealed via a pipe thread. The electrode length corresponds to the desired switching points and may be shortened as necessary. The electrode tip must be free of insulating materials.

     Numbering: shortest electrode 1; second-shortest electrode 2, etc.  The Conductive Level Switch can only be used in conjunction with a suitable electrode relay (e.g. NE-104 or NE-304). Ensure that the cable gland and the housing cover of the limit switch are strongly tightened after connection.

    7.2 NE-104 Electrode Relay The NE-104 electrode relay is the standard relay for all conductive limit electrodes. It is supplied with a quiescent current relay, i.e., the relay picks up (contact 6-7 closes) when auxiliary power is applied. If the electrodes are wetted or the power fails, the relay disengages (contact 7-8 closes).

    7.3 NE-304 Electrode Relay The NE-304 electrode relay is a double relay with two separated electrode circuits and one reference electrode. It is supplied with a quiescent current relay, i.e., the relay picks up (contact 3-4 and 6-7 close) when auxiliary power is applied.

     If the LED is energised Relay NE-104: Disconnect the electrode from terminals 14, 15, and 16, and short-circuit terminals 14 and 15 with a wire jumper. The relay must drop out now. If there is no reaction, the relay is faulty.
