Function and system design
Measuring system The RTA421 contactor monitors industrial processes for safe operation. The unit analyses current (0/4...20
mA) and voltage signals (0/2...10 V) and switches two independent output relays if the values either exceed
or undercut the preset alarm set points.
Applications include pump control in the waste water industry, level measurement in silos can be economically
achieved.

Operability
Operating concept Quick Set
The unit is fitted with a quick set up menu so that if the set points are to be frequently changed this feature can
be started by operating the “+” and “E” push buttons. This means that the set points SP1 and SP2 can be easily
changed even during operation without opening the setting up menu.
If required a 2 digit security code is available in order to stop any changes being made to the alarm set points.
