IP class:
IP54 is suited for indoor use with limited condensation and no water jet cleaning.
IP66 is suited for outdoor use where condensation occur. If high-pressure water cleaning with aggressive cleaning agents is used the sensor need further protection.

Product ordering codes and thread connections

NO/NC what is the difference?
You can order the sensor as NO  or NC and it is a question aboutwhat fits your system. A NO switch provides no output until liquid is detected. A NC switch provide an output until liquid is detected.
NC is common for fail safe systems where you like to get an indication if the wire is broken.
NO
Contact is normally open and closes when liquid is detected

NC
Contact is normally closed and opens when liquid is detected

24 V – NPN or PNP output ISO 4400/DIN 43650 plug
A PNP switch is common in Europe and provide a positive signal on pin 3 when switching.
A NPN switch is common in America and provide a ground signal on pin 3 when switching. Solid state relay (SSR) IEC 61076-2-101 M12 plug
The large electronic units has a potential free relay output.
When switching there will be connection between pin 3 and pin 4.
24V versions

1. : +24 VDC or 24VAC
2. : – common or 24VAC
3. : Output potential free
4. : Output potential free
5. : Communication

90-240V versions

1. : 90-240 V AC
2. : 90-240 V AC
3. : Output potential free
4. : Output potential free

ATEX/IECEx approved switches with IEC 61076-2-101 M12 plug
All the 24V switches are available in an ATEX/IECEx approved version. The switch has a two-wire analog output which will be either 4 or 20 mA. The switch can be changed between NO and NC when connecting it to the HB-tool.
The sensor is used together with a barrier to comply with ATEX/ IECEx requirements.

1. : +24 VDC
2. : Not used
3. : Not used
4. : Analog output
5. : Not used
