Level Measurement & Control


PlicsLED universal display module

April 2015 Level Measurement & Control

VEGA has introduced its PlicsLED universal display module for all point level sensors. The module is compatible with all sensors in the plics family and is supplied with relay output.

With this new display module the switching status of a sensor can be read from a distance, even in strong sunlight. Since external wiring is unnecessary, the time needed for installation is reduced to a minimum. Power is supplied via the relay electronics and the second relay output is used to control the switching status display. Depending on the module version, the switching status is displayed in the colour combination red-green or yellow-green.

PlicsLED is installed directly inside the plics sensor housing giving it protection from dust and water. The display module can be ordered directly with the sensor or, alternatively, as a separate unit for retrofitting.
