Experience in implementing level monitoring solutions for various industries, enabling us to provide the best solution for every application.
Precise and reliable level measurement that ensures smooth and safe operation of your system.
Durable and low-maintenance level measurement systems that contribute to a reduction in operating costs.
Bypass Level Indicator – Continuous measurement without auxiliary power.
Our bypass level indicator provides you with continuous level measurements with visual representation of the level without auxiliary power.
Capacitive measuring system – For your precise limit determination.
This method allows you to determine limits as well as continuously measure the level of liquid and bulk material.
Features:
- Optical function and status indication by 2 LEDs
- Temperature (medium): -40…+200°C
- Protection class: IP67/68
- Wide range of connections via plug, cable gland or screw connection for protective hoses
- Housing, electrodes and reference tubes made of stainless steel
Radar Level Measurement – Compact Precision for Your Level Determination.
These compact level measurement solutions with rod or cable electrodes continuously and accurately determine the levels of liquids, bulk materials, and pasty media. In addition, the electronics emit microwave pulses to measure the time difference of the electromagnetic waves and thus the distance to the surface.
Features:
- Measuring range up to 40 m
- Resolution: 1 mm
- Temperature (medium): max. +200°C
- Output signals: Analog, HART, ModBus RTU
- Protection class: IP67
- Pressure up to max. 100 bar
- Explosion protection according to ATEX
Float Switch – Simple principle for versatile applications.
Float switches operate on a simple and proven principle, covering a wide range of applications. Some of the fields of application include industrial applications, process and procedural plants, and the shipbuilding industry.
Features:
- Suitable for measuring: oil, water, diesel, refrigerants, and other liquids
- Permissible temperature range of the measured substance: -30 … +150 °C
- Up to 4 switching outputs freely definable as normally open, normally closed, or changeover contacts
- Optional temperature output signal
Optoelectronic limit switches – Your solution with high media compatibility.
Level measurement solutions of this category precisely determine the limit level of liquids regardless of their properties in terms of density, conductivity, and refractive index. Additionally, they score points with the absence of moving parts and high media compatibility due to their material composition.
Performance features:
- Installation position arbitrary
- Accuracy ±2 mm
- Temperature ranges from -269 … +400 °C
- Versions for pressure ranges from vacuum to 500 bar
- Special versions: high pressure, interface level measurement
- For liquids such as oils, water, distilled water, aqueous media
Vibrating Level Switch – Accurate level measurement using vibration.
The vibrating level switch measures levels using a vibration that is excited to its resonance frequency. When in contact with the material, the frequency decreases. The integrated electronics detect this change and convert it into a switching signal.
Features:
- Medium-independent switching point
- Very high reproducibility
- Wear- and maintenance-free
- Small installation dimensions
- Installation position arbitrary
- Protection class IP 65
- Versions: Compact, ATEX, Hygienic Design
Reference Vessels – Corrosion-resistant designs for precise measurements.
We offer you reference vessels made of corrosion-resistant materials in a custom design. Each vessel consists of a reference vessel chamber that is attached to the container laterally. You benefit from high durability, precise measurements, and a wide range of applications.
Performance features:
- Process- and procedure-specific manufacturing
- Operating limits:
- Operating temperature: T = -196 ... +450 °C
- Operating pressure: P = Vacuum up to 400 bar
- Wide variety of different process connections and materials
Accessories – Wide variety with added value.
We offer a diverse selection of accessories and attachments for your level measuring devices.
Features:
- Medium-independent switching point
- Very high reproducibility
- Wear- and maintenance-free
- Compact dimensions
- Mounting position arbitrary
- Protection class IP 65
- Versions: Compact, ATEX, Hygienic Design
