Industrial Controller KS 90 Important Notes Usage for the intended purpose The industrial controller KS 90 in conjunction with the conductivity transmitter LRGT 6-, LRGT 6-2 or LRGT 7- is designed for controlling continuous blowdown in steam boilers. Safety notes The equipment must only be installed and commissioned by qualified and competent staff.
Explanatory Notes Scope of supply KS 90 Industrial controller KS 90 in DIN slide-in case Installation manual Function The measuring current of the conductivity transmitter LRGT 6-, LRGT 6-2 or LRGT 7- is evaluated by the industrial controller KS 90 as actual value. The KS 90 is a three-position stepping controller that converts the difference between the actual value and the setpoint into actuating signals for the electric motor-actuated continuous blowdown valve.
