Capacitive sensors can see through walls
Sensors from are optimised for the detection of conductive media through nonmetallic walls or on bypasses.
To maximise versatility and economy, the flush-mounting sensors are designed for installation in conjunction with IFM's extensive range of process adaptors.
This means that a single type of sensor can be used with almost any standard process fitting, including welding bosses and DRD tank fittings.
All sensor/adapter combinations are EHEDG-certified for food-related applications, and are fully compatible with CIP/SIP systems.
Offering a choice of analogue or switching outputs, IFM's PF and PI sensors for level measurement applications are based on fully sealed ceramic cell sensing technology, which combines high precision with exceptional long-term stability and resistance to accidental damage.
The ceramic cell construction is also resistant to the effects of aggressive media, and its operation is entirely unaffected by vibration and shock.
Sensor housings are manufactured from high-grade stainless-steel, and their IP67 ingress protection rating means that these units are suitable for use in even the most demanding environments.
Gold-plated contacts in sockets which accept industry-standard M12 connectors are used for the electrical connections to the sensors, further enhancing their reliability and convenience. Request a free brochure from IFM Electronic ...
