SLC Series- Capacitive Level Sensor/Switch for Bulky Solids
Item Code: SLC_S
- Application Temperature Range : Up to 350° C
- Wetted parts: PTFE, Ceramic, SS 304 & SS 316
- Available in Integral model
- Output: 1/2 SPDT Relay with time delay, Pump Control Logic
- Process Connection: Screwed , Flange
- Certifications: Flame Proof IIA, IIB & IP65 Housing
- Probe length: 100 mm to 10m
Principle
The probe comprises of a sense electrode, electrically isolated from the metallic tank by means of a suitable insulator. The sense electrode and the vessel wall serve as the two electrodes of a capacitor with the service material acting as the dielectric. A change in the level of material causes a change in the dielectric, which in turn causes the value of this tank capacitor to change.
Benefits
- Outputs options: open collector PNP output
- System fault indication for added reliability
- No moving parts hence maintenance-free
- Compact size hence easy to install.
