Industrial Applications

1. Continuous Level Monitoring in Small Tanks

This sensor precisely monitors the fill level of liquids or bulk solids in small containers or tanks up to 500mm deep, providing a continuous 0-10V analog signal proportional to the level. Its non-contact nature and temperature compensation ensure reliable readings in varying conditions.

Problem Solved

Eliminates manual measurement errors and provides real-time data for precise process control and inventory management in applications requiring continuous level feedback.
