Process water and drinking water treatment, food industry, pharmaceutical industry
Float switches are used for the point-based limit level detection of one or several levels. They work independently of foaming, conductivity, dielectric, pressure, vacuum, temperature, vapours, condensation, bubble formation, boiling effects and vibrations and are suitable for almost all liquid media. The switching operation is contact-free, free from wear and needs no power supply. The simple and proven functional principle of the float switches enables a very wide range of applications, from general industrial applications through to use in process plants.
Optoelectronic switches are used for the detection of limit levels in liquids. The detection is widely independent of physical characteristics of the liquids such as density, dielectric constant, conductivity and refractive index.
The instruments are notable for their compact design and do not feature any moving components. With a measuring tip from borosilicate or quartz glass, and robust stainless steel cases, they offer a high media compatibility.
Our level sensors enable the continuous measurement of levels, independent of physical and chemical changes of the media such as foaming, conductivity, dielectric, pressure, vacuum, temperature, vapours, condensation, bubble formation, boiling effects and density change. Via the HART® interface, parallel measurement of interface layer and overall level is possible. The level can be displayed proportional to height or volume. Process connection, guide tube and float can be manufactured from stainless steel 1.4571, 1.4435, 1.4539, titanium or various plastics.
