2.2General designThe level detectors consist of a probe tube, which reaches into the tank andcarries a sensor, protected against mechanical damages, on its bottom end. The corresponding probe length is permanently imprinted at the top end of the probe.2.2.1Level detector LOF1.11..This level detector is the LOF standard version and can be used in almost allapplication areas. The transducer electronics are installed in a stainless steel housing located directly on the probe tube (see Fig.2a2d).The level detector can optionally be equipped with an electric plug-in connectionfor a comfortable connection...

2.2.5Height-adjustable level detector LOF..E with screw-in unitLOF level detectors with the additional designation "E" are fitted with a screw-in unit, which is used to adjust the probe tube and the response length to a particular height depending on the tank size (see Fig.2a, 2c, 2e).2.2.6Level detector LOF..F with flangeWith LOF level detectors with the additional designation "F" the probe tube iswelded to the flange and thus can not be adjusted in height (see Fig.2b, 2d, 2f).2.2.7Level detector LOF..S with larger probe tube diameterThe probe tube of LOF level detectors with the additional...

When installing the overfill protection system please observe thefollowing safety instructions: During all work on the overfill protection system always observethe national safety and accident prevention regulations as well asthe generally recognised rules of engineering and all the safetyinstructions in this manual. Օ Wiring may only be carried out when the equipment is disconnectedfrom the mains. The transducer must be installed in closed rooms or in a housing withIP 54 protection. The housing protection class for closed rooms differsdepending on the transducer version (see Chap."Technical...
