Disconnection detection function (K7L-AT50D/AT50DB/AT50DP/AT50DPB only)
Operation While Monitoring for Liquid Leakage
Short-wave signals (2.5 VAC, 3.75 Hz) for liquid leakage detection
are output from terminal 4 of the K7L.
When there is no liquid leakage, the liquid leakage detection
signals that are output are interrupted by the Terminator and the
core of the Sensing Band will form an open loop.
Operation at Liquid Leakage Detection
When liquid leakage occurs within the sensing range, the liquid
leakage detection signals output from terminal 4 are input to
terminal 2 through the leaked liquid.
The voltage of the input signals will vary with the resistance of the
leaked liquid. This voltage is compared with the detection level set
at the K7L.
If the K7L determines from the comparison results that there is
liquid leakage, the liquid leakage output will turn ON or OFF. (The
output can be set to NO or NC operation.) The output indicator will
turn ON and OFF together with the output. The indicator lights
when the output turns ON.
Operation While Monitoring for Disconnection
Output of disconnection detection signals starts within 2 s of power
being supplied to the K7L and is repeated at 7-s intervals.
Disconnection signals are DC signals of 10 V max. that are output
for approximately 200 ms. During this time, the K7L is in
disconnection monitoring mode, i.e. it monitors for disconnections
only and the liquid leakage detection signals are stopped.
If there is no disconnection, the disconnection detection signals
(10 VDC) that are output pass through the Terminator and return
to the K7L. The K7L takes this as normal, i.e., there is no
disconnection.
Operation at Disconnection Detection
If there is a disconnection, the signals will be interrupted at the
place where the disconnection occurred, and will not return to the
K7L.
If the signals do not return when the K7L is in disconnection
monitoring mode, it will determine that a disconnection has
occurred. The output indicator will flash, and the disconnection
output will turn ON/OFF depending on the position of the DIP
switch (right).

Note: 1. Disconnection detection is only performed between terminals 2 and 4. Therefore, be sure to connect the Sensing Band between
terminals 2 and 4.
2. The K7L will switch from liquid leakage detection to disconnection detection if either of the following conditions occur while liquid
leakage is detected.
2-1. Disconnection occurs between the K7L and the place where liquid is leaked.
2-2. While liquid leakage is detected, disconnection occurs between the place where liquid is leaked and the Terminator (F03-20T)
and, subsequently, the leaked liquid is removed (e.g., wiped up or dried).
3. During disconnection detection, liquid leakage will not be detected. Once disconnection has been detected, reset the power supply to
stop disconnection detection.
