Continuous Level Indicator (ILC...Series)

Dependability, strength, durability, ruggedness are the keywords when it comes to the use of level instruments for continuous monitoring in difficult environment conditions. The ILC... series stands up to the requirements of a tough continuous level detector and offers the following benefits:
 

  • Level measurement is displayed on a built-in Digital Panel Meter having 0.5 inch high digits for better visibility.
     
  • Standard output signal of 0-5 V DC and 0/4-20 mA DC proportional to 0-100% level change available for remote indicators and recorders.
     
  • 'In Situ' range selection and calibration possible from evaluation unit. Probe head accessibility not required.
     
  • Measuring system has no moving parts so does not suffer any mechanical wear and tear and hence is maintenance free.
     
  • Economical to install, since ordinary 3-core cable is used for interconnection.
     
  • Flame-proof probe suitable for hazardous areas as per IS-2148 for group IIA and IIB is available.

As far as the service material is concerned, the Continuous Level Indicator can be used with conductive or non-conductive liquids, powdered or grained materials of homogeneous composition having stable dielectric constant. Our clients in the Oil, Food, Water treatment, Diesel, Chemicals etc. industries have used the capacitance continuous level indicator to their satisfaction.

In the ILC...series the measuring electrode and container wall (or grounding probe) form a capacitor with the material serving as the dielectric. A change in material level in the container causes a change in capacitance. The electronic insert converts this change to a proportional DC which is transmitted via the interconnecting cable to the evaluation unit wherein the signal after processing is displayed digitally. A Reference probe is required, when the tank is non-metallic and a grounding tube is required, when the liquid is turbulent or tank shape is curved.
