2 Safety instructions

• Please read this document prior to set-up of the unit� Ensure that the product is
suitable for your application without any restrictions�
• If the operating instructions or the technical data are not adhered to, personal

3 Functions and features

3.1 Applications
The unit monitors the flow and the temperature of liquid and gaseous media�
3.2 Operating principle flow monitoring
• The unit detects the flow speed to the calorimetric measuring principle and
switches output OUT1:
- output OUT1 closed if medium is flowing / output open if no medium is flow-
ing�
This applies to the unit on delivery: output = normally open� If necessary you
can change the outputs to normally closed function (→ 7.7). It then applies:
output OUT1 open if medium is flowing�
• If the flow speed increases, the switching status changes when the switch point
is reached�
• If the flow speed falls again, the switching status changes when the value "SP
minus hysteresis" is reached�
