8. Commissioning 

Turn  the  sensitivity  potentiometer  fully  clockwise  to  the  right,  until  the  stop  is 
reached.  
When  the  mains  voltage  and  the  electrodes  have  been  connected  according  to 
their required function, the conductive limit switch is ready for operation. The tank 
may now be filled. The sensitivity is optimally adjusted with this basic setting.  
Should  foaming  cause  the  relay  to  operate  too  early,  the  sensitivity  can  be 
reduced by turning the sensitivity potentiometer to the left, until the foam does not 
cause the relay to operate. 
 
 
 

9. Locating and Remedying Faults 

The relay does not operate: 

  Check that the mains voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2. If the voltage is 

present, the red LED should light up and the relay should pick up. If there is no 
reaction, the relay is faulty.  

  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. 

Relay NE-304:

 Disconnect the electrode from terminals 10, 12, 13, 15, and 16, 

and  short-circuit  terminals  10,  12  and  10,  15  with  a  wire  jumper.  The  relay 
must drop out now. If there is no reaction, the relay is faulty. 

  If  the  relay  switches,  remove  the  short-circuiting  link  and  connect  the 

electrodes according to the connecting instructions. Short-circuit the electrodes 
at the tips with a wire jumper. If the relay does not change over now, there is a 
cable interruption, or the electrode tips are insulated by deposits. 

  If the relay with the wire jumper at the electrode tips changes over, remove the 

wire  jumper,  adjust  the  maximum  sensitivity  on  the  relay,  and  immerse  the 
electrodes in the medium. If the relay still does not switch, the conductivity of 
the medium may be too low.
