A NAMUR sensor is a range of sensors which conform to the EN 60947-5-6 / IEC 60947-5-6 standards. They basically have two states which are reflected by the amount of current running through a sense resistor. www.netcommwireless.com NetComm Wireless 3G Light Industrial M2M Router... - Page 134 An example below shows the internal pull-up voltage and 1K resistor activated. The voltage received depends on the combination of resistors and the value of the resistance of the sensor itself. NetComm Wireless 3G Light Industrial M2M Router www.netcommwireless.com...
