Switching Capacitive
VEGACAP series 60
Level detection in bulk solids and liquids
Measuring principle
Sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor. A capacitance
change caused by a level change is processed by the integrated
electronics and converted into a switching signal. The capacitive
measuring principle makes no special demands to installation and
mounting. Due to cable and rod versions, suitable instruments are
available for all applications.
Applications in liquids
Mainly fully insulated instrument versions are used in these applications.
Hence level detection of corrosive liquids or adhesive products are no
problem. The mounting of the instruments is easy and the rugged
construction is the basis for an interference and maintenance free
operation.
