Capacitive Level Switch (VEGA)
In capacitive point level detection, the sensor and vessel form the two electrodes of a capacitor. Any capacitance change caused by a level change is converted into a switching signal. Thanks to the shortenable cable and rod versions, level switches can be perfectly adapted to any application. They are often used for overfill or dry run protection as well as oil/water or foam detection.
The advantages
- The level switch can be installed in any position
- Fully insulated versions also measure aggressive liquids
- Low-cost point level detection for maintenance-free operation
