Level detection with optical sensors

• Chemical resistance
  • The sensor housings are made of Polysulfon or stainless steel as resistance against specific fluids
• Detectable media
  • Fluid detection by optical light allows for deployment even in varied non-conductive media
  • In leakage monitoring, 1 ml escaping fluid will suffice to trigger an alarm
• Easy commissioning
  • The sensors with integrated electronics eliminate the need for parameter setting. Fiber-optics sensor settings are made at the related fiber optics device
• Hazardous environments
  • The intrinsically safe fiber optic variant with PFA sheath is even suitable for hazardous areas
• Fail-safe behavior
  • The integrated fail-safe behavior function will trigger an alarm in the event of leakage, cable break, sensor defect or if the sensor has come off the mount

The sensor's chemical resistance opens a wide application range:

• Level monitoring in liquids such as acetone, acids, alkalis, mineral oils, milk and any non-conductive fluid
• Non-contact level detection in (semi-)transparent hoses and riser tubes
• Minimum and maximum level detection in tubs and tanks
• Leakage monitoring in oil tubs or lubricant tanks
• Leakage monitoring in dispensers and other fluid dispensing systems
