Application
The Nivotester FTW325 can be used for overspill protection (WHG), pump dry running protection or as a two-point control for pumps. Sensors such as the Liquipoint T FTW31/FTW32 can be connected to the FTW325. Multipoint detection for up to five measuring points is possible by using 3 Nivotester FTW325s.
Function
The intrinsically safe signal input of the limit switch Nivotester FTW325 is galvanically isolated from the mains and the output. The Nivotester supplies the conductivity probes with an alternating current via a two or three-wire line and monitors its voltage. If the product reaches the switch point of the probe, the voltage between the probe and Nivotester is reduced. The output relays at the Nivotester switch depending on the set failsafe mode. Two yellow LEDs on the front panel of the Nivotester indicate the relay switch status.
