Explosion-proof specifications SH Type Intrinsically safe explosion-proof structure ExiaII CT5 (TIIS)
Explosion-proof structure (ATEX)

Main application

  • Liquid level, powder level
  • interface
  • Separatory funnel
  • Foam surface
  • Liquid level detection ignoring bubbles
  • Admittance type (AD Type) for highly conductive adhesion
    Carbon slurry, Seabed sediment (containing minerals)
    Sludge, Seawater (mineral adhesion)
    Metal powder slurry, semiconductor

Features

QH, SH Type

  • Both conductive and insulating objects can be detected
  • “Automatic correction function” to avoid malfunction due to adhesion or accumulation of conductive material
  • Sensitivity can be set simply by turning the sensitivity dial.
    In addition, a wide range of measurements is possible with the detection sensitivity switch.
  • Uses nitrogen-filled relay
  • Long-life without drive
  • Φ60 small head case (SUS, aluminum)

QS Type

  • Suitable for measuring high insulation because it uses an ultra-sensitive amplifier.
  • “Separate type” for tanks installed in high places and narrow places can be adjusted on the panel side while looking at the meter mounted on the amplifier side.
  • Easy centralized management on the control panel side
  • Complete measures against fluctuations in power supply voltage
  • Strong against vibration
  • Sensitivity can be set according to the object to be measured by simply turning the SET volume

Specifications

Sanitary specifications: #400 buff finish equivalent
Electropolishing
Passivation treatment
Condensation resistant treatment
IDF sanitary ferrule / Seat / Nut mounting
Operating principle: It consists of an oscillator circuit and a detector
Since the capacitance of the object to be measured and the capacitance of air is significantly different, the capacitance change due to contact with liquid contact, and powder is converted into an electric signal to operate the relay.
Other features:
  • Insulating Ideal for detecting highly viscous liquids and insulating resin powders
  • A high degree of freedom in designing the detector.
    According to the site conditions, it is possible to manufacture detection parts such as small size, high strength, flat, and pipeline.
  • Take the high pressure gas equipment test for the product alone* Note 1
  • Explosion-proof structure with integrated amplifier (ATEX).
  • The effects of static electricity are almost negligible* Note 2
  • An operation indicator LED is attached to the sensor board, making it easy to check the operation on-site.
  • Since it is manufactured at our factory, it has a short delivery time.

*Note 1:
We can also prepare only the necessary documents (strength calculation, test report, mill sheet) for the KHK examination

*Note 2:
When the tank contents are charged with static electricity, the static electricity flows from the level switch’s detection electrode to the ground electrode and from the mounting flange or mounting screw to the tank ground. If the ground line is wired, it can also be routed to the ground wire. This technique is instrumental in preventing electrostatic explosions.
