Industrial Applications

1. Level Detection in Storage Tanks for Liquids and Powders

This sensor is ideal for non-contact level monitoring of various materials, including liquids, grains, and powders, within storage tanks. Its 15 mm non-flush capacitive sensing and adjustable sensitivity allow it to detect material levels through non-metallic tank walls, or directly in contact with the media. The robust stainless steel housing and IP67 rating ensure reliable operation in challenging industrial environments prone to dust and moisture.

Problem Solved

Provides accurate and reliable level detection without direct contact with the process media, preventing contamination and wear, especially in corrosive or hygienic applications.

3. Jam and Blockage Detection in Packaging and Filling Machines

In packaging and filling operations, this capacitive sensor can effectively detect jams or blockages of non-metallic containers like plastic bottles or cartons. Its ability to sense through thin plastic or cardboard materials, combined with non-flush mounting, minimizes contact with the product, thereby reducing potential contamination risks. The wide 10-60 V DC operating voltage ensures compatibility with various industrial control systems.

Problem Solved

Prevents damage to machinery and products by promptly identifying material jams, thereby reducing downtime and improving overall operational safety and efficiency in automated lines.
