Easy-to-replace separate versions facilitate maintenance of electrodes. Ideal for soft drink vendors, etc. , where only limited space is available. In sewage use, electrode holders must be installed 10 to 20 cm apart from one another.

Drainage · Connect the electromagnetic switch coil terminal A to terminal 3. · The pump starts when the water level reaches E1 and stops when the water level drops below E2. 61F-GP-N8 MCCB 0V 8V 24 V Control circuit 200 V (See note 1 below. ) Contactor (See note 2 below. ) THR Tank PS-3S Stop Start Reservoir Note: 1. The earth terminal must be earthed. E-8 Conductive Level Controller 61F-GP-N8 Operation The Conductive Level Controller consists of a plug-in controller connected to a set of stainless steel probes. A low voltage is applied between these probes and the earth probe (or tank, if it is electrically conductive). The water provides a current between the earth probe and the high-level probe. The output relay in the Controller is energized when the water level reaches the high-level probe and de-energized when the water level falls below it. In this case the relay does not de-energize until the water level falls below the low-level probe. Using the low-level probe allows a wide differential between switching a pump on and off, and can avoid excessive pump operation during tank emptying or filling. If this differential is not required, the low-level probe need not be connected. Surge Suppressor Unit (61F-03B/04B) A high-capacity protective device is available which protects 61Fseries Floatless Level Controllers against faults arising from electrical surges (such as indirect strokes of lightning) when the Controllers are employed in elevated water tanks or in high-altitude locations. When connecting the Surge Suppressor Unit, wire as shown in the following example (with three electrodes).

Mount the Surge Suppressor Unit as close to the Controller as possible. When grounding the Surge Suppressor Unit in the vicinity of the Controller, connect the ground side of the Surge Suppressor Unit to electrode E3.

When taping one of the electrodes to prevent it from contacting the other electrodes in water, do not tape the electrode entirely but leave at least 100 mm of its end uncovered. When the required length of the electrode is more than 1 m, use a separator at each joint of two electrodes so as to prevent the electrodes from contacting one another. Usually, electrodes are used in a set of three: long, medium, and short. [. . . ]
