K7L-AT50D/-AT50D-S
FAQs
Some questions that are frequently asked about the K7L are given below. Use this information when selecting a model.
Can one K7L be used for detection in more
than one place
Yes.
By using Terminal Blocks to connect Sensing Bands in parallel,
detection can be performed in more than place with only one K7L.
Note:
When wiring, be sure not to exceed the maximum possible wir-
ing distances for both the wiring cable and the Sensing Band.
Exceeding these distances may lead to faulty operation. Con-
nect one Sensing Band to the each Terminal Block.
Can the K7L be used as a replacement for the
61F-GPN-V50 Water Leakage Detector
Yes.
Because the surge withstand capability is different, however, do not
use in locations where it will be exposed to impulses and surges
such as outdoor roofs or pump panels. Also, items such as the power
supply voltage and the connection sockets are different. Confirm
these items before application.
Can a different terminal block (e.g. a
commercially available terminal block or a
terminal block constructed by the user) be
used instead of the one provided
Yes.
When using another terminal block, however, be sure to check that
all the terminals are mutually isolated, and that there is no danger of
ground faults in wiring cables or Sensing Bands.
Can the K7L detect pure water
Yes.
Even pure water, which has a resistance exceeding 10 M
cm, can
nearly always be detected if the K7L is used at its maximum sensitiv-
ity. This is because impurities are mixed with the water when it is
leaked and the resistance drops.
Can the K7L detect oil
In most cases, no.
If, however, it contains impurities such as metal powder, as is the
case with cutting oil and used engine oil, detection may be possible
(actual instances of detection have been observed). The user should
confirm whether the required kind of detection is possible before
application.
