Connection Diagram
 

Note: The common electrode (longest electrode), terminal 4, can be shared by matching the power supply phases (between terminals 3 and 9).

Principles of Operation:

  • If the water level reaches E3, the lower-limit 61F-GP-N Controller’s LED indicator goes ON, terminals 6 and 7 close, and terminals 10 and 11 close.

  • If the water level reaches E2, the midpoint 61F-GP-N Controller’s LED indicator goes ON, terminals 6 and 7 close, and terminals 10 and 11 close.

  • If the water level reaches E1, the upper-limit 61F-GP-N Controller’s LED indicator goes ON, terminals 6 and 7 close, and terminals 10 and 11 close.
