Important Notes Usage for the intended purpose The conductivity switch LRGS 15-1 must only be used for measuring the electrical conductivity in liquids. Safety note The equipment must only be installed by and commissioned by qualified and competent staff. Retrofitting and maintenance work must only be performed by qualified staff who through adequate training have achieved a recognised level of competence. Danger When loosening the conductivity switch hot water or steam may escape. This presents the risk of severe scalding. Before removing the conductivity switch make sure that the boiler pressure is 0 bar. The conductivity switch is hot during operation. This presents the risk of severe burns to hands and arms. Before mounting, servicing or removing the equipment make sure that it has cooled down to room temperatures. The terminal strips of the conductivity switch LRGS 15-1 are live during operation. This presents the danger of electric shock. Cut off power supply to the equipment before mounting, removing or connecting the terminal strips. LV (Low Voltage) Directive and EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) The equipment meets the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU. ATEX (Atmosphère Explosible) According to the European Directive 2014/34/EU the equipment must not be used in potentially explosive areas. Note on the Declaration of Conformity / Declaration by the Manufacturer For details on the conformity of our equipment according to the European Directives see our Declaration of Conformity or our Declaration of Manufacturer. The current Declaration of Conformity / Declaration of Manufacturer are available in the Internet under www.gestra.de/documents or can be requested from us. 4

Explanatory Notes Scope of supply LRGS 15-1 1 Conductivity switch LRGS 15-1 1 Joint ring 27 x 32, form D, DIN 7603, 2.4068, bright annealed 1 Installation manual Function The conductivity switch LRGS 15-1 is a compact system consisting of a conductivity monitoring electrode and a conductivity switch integrated in the terminal box. The LRGS 15-1 is used as limit switch and continuous blowdown controller in steam boilers. The conductivity switch works according to the conductometric measuring method, continuously sensing the electrical conductivity of the boiler water and thus taking a direct measurement of the total dissolved solids (TDS). The conductivity switch features an integrated 2-position controller for actuating a continuous blowdown valve and automatic closing of the valve on boiler shut-down. Furthermore, an additional adjustable contact outputs a signal when a limit is reached. The electrical conductivity being a function of temperature, the measured value must be based on a reference temperature of 25 C. For calibration purposes a reference measurement (at 25 C) is therefore required. If, however, a resistance thermometer (boiler water temperature) is applied, the adjustable temperature coefficient can be used to compensate the obtained conductivity values. This means that the conductivity reading will not be affected by variations in pressure and temperature. Electrical conductivity is measured in units of microsiemens per centimeter (µs/cm). However, in some countries the unit ppm (parts per million) is used. Conversion: 1 µs/cm = 0.5 ppm. The conductivity switch can be switched to either µs/cm or ppm. 5

Cleaning measuring electrode, exchanging terminal box Danger When loosening the conductivity switch hot water or steam may escape. This presents the risk of severe scalding. Before removing the conductivity switch make sure that the boiler pressure is 0 bar. The conductivity switch is hot during operation. This presents the risk of severe burns to hands and arms. Before mounting, servicing or removing the equipment make sure that it has cooled down to room temperatures. The terminal strips of the conductivity switch LRGS 15-1 are live during operation. This presents the danger of electric shock. Cut off power supply to the equipment before mounting, removing or connecting the terminal strips. Cleaning measuring electrode Before cleaning the measuring electrode take the conductivity switch out of service and cut off its power supply. 1. Unscrew the cover screws H and remove the cover I, Fig. 3, 4. 2. Detach the connecting wires from the terminal strips M and pull the wires out of the cable glands. 3. Before removing the conductivity switch make sure that the equipment is neither hot nor under pressure. Cleaning the measuring surface of the measuring electrode: n Use a fat-free cloth to wipe off loose deposits. n Remove hard deposits with an emery cloth of medium grain size. Re-install the conductivity switch, taking the notes given in chapter Installation, Electrical Connection and Commissioning into account. Exchanging the terminal box (with electronic insert) Before exchanging the terminal box take the conductivity switch out of service and cut off its power supply. 1. Unscrew the cover screws H and remove the cover I, Fig. 3, 4. 2. Detach the connecting wires from the terminal strips M and pull the wires out of the cable glands. 3. Remove the electrode wires from the terminal lugs. 4. Unscrew the fixing nut J, using an open-end spanner 19 mm A.F. Pull electrode wires through the fixing nut J. 5. Remove the terminal box and pull the electrode wires through the bore for the fixing screw. 6. Remove the gasket A between the electrode and the terminal box. Install a new terminal box, taking the notes given in chapter Installation, Electrical Connection and Commissioning into account. 24
