Distance measurement
11.55 ft / 3.50 m
16.5 ft / 5.00 m
Transducer
Piston
The above application deals with a moving piston:
The maximum range for the piston is 16.5 ft / 5.00 m and the
closest the piston can get to the transducer is 1.63 ft / 0.50 m
(Due to the blanking of the transducer).

NOTICE
Set the relay set and reset point further apart to avoid the
relays from chattering.
Below is what LST400 will display on the application above.
Relay 1 will switch on (set) when the level rises above 13.2 ft /
4.00 m and reset when the level goes below 11.55 ft / 3.50 m.
Relay 2 will switch on (set) when the level drops below 3.28 ft /
1.00 m and reset when the level goes above 4.95 ft / 1.50 m.
