3.1 Mounting instructions
The reference plane for the measuring range is the lower edge of the
transducer.
Make sure that a minimum distance from the reference plane - the
so-called dead zone, in which measurement is not possible - is
maintained.Theexactvalueofthedeadzoneisstatedinchapter
"Technical data".

4.1 Connection procedure
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing lid
2. If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn-
ing it to the left
3. Loosen compression nut of the cable gland and remove blind
plug
4. Removeapprox.10cm(4in)ofthecablemantle,stripapprox.
1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires
5. Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
6. Lift the opening levers of the terminals with a screwdriver (see
following illustration)
7. Insert the wire ends into the open terminals according to the wir-
ing plan
Fig. 3: Connection steps 6 and 7
8. Press down the opening levers of the terminals, you will hear the
terminal spring closing
9. Check the hold of the wires in the terminals by lightly pulling on
them
10. Connect the shielding to the internal ground terminal, connect the

module PLICSCOM
5.1 Insert display and adjustment module
The display and adjustment module can be inserted into the sensor
and removed again at any time. It is not necessary to interrupt the
voltage supply.
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing lid
2. Place the display and adjustment module in the desired position
ontheelectronics(fourpositionsin90°osetcanbeselected)
and turn to the right until it clicks into place.
3. Screw housing lid with inspection window tightly back on
Disassembly is carried out in reverse order.
The display and adjustment module is powered by the sensor, an ad-
ditional connection is not necessary.

The sensor measures the distance from the sensor to the medium
surface. For indication of the real level, an allocation of the measured
distance to the percentage height must be carried out.
The actual level is then calculated on the basis of these entered
values. At the same time, the operating range of the sensor is limited
frommaximumrangetotherequestedrange.
