Hygienic vessels need reliable level detection without unnecessary gaps or elastomer contact in the process. Capcont LL monitors limit levels capacitively and converts the detected change into a switching command, helping users control filling points or protect process steps with a clear PNP switching signal.
The design is made for hygienic installation with a gap-free metallic seal and a matching weld-in sleeve. PEEK electrode rod insulation, stainless steel process connection materials 1.4404/316L or 1.4571/316Ti and a CrNi steel connection housing support use in demanding process environments.
For applications with changing process conditions, the sensor covers -40 °C to +140 °C and -1 to 10 bar. Integrated evaluation electronics, M12x1 connection and ingress protection (IP68) for 3mH2O for 1h make Capcont LL a compact choice for level and limit detection in hygienic containers.
The electrode rod, medium and vessel wall form an electrical capacitor. A change in capacitance is evaluated by the electronics and converted into a switching command.
The LL version uses a G½" B process connection for installation in SEM-22 or SEM-42 weld-in sleeves with metallic sealing.
The electrode rod insulation is PEEK. The process connection uses stainless steel 1.4404/316L or 1.4571/316Ti.
The sensor uses an M12x1 connector with a CrNi steel socket, PUR insert and gold-plated contacts.
The switching state is indicated by a rear LED. The response sensitivity is adjusted with a multi-turn trimmer.
