Application
The Nivector capacitive point level switch is suitable for all kinds of powdered and fine-grained solids (e.g. plastic granulates, washing agents and animal feed). Because of its materials of construction, Nivector is also suitable for use with foodstuffs such as grain, sugar, herbs and spices or semolina.
Function
The sensor surface ofthe Nivector evaluates the different dielectric values of air and bulk solids. If the bulk solids come into contact with the sensor surface, the electronics change the switch status. The Nivector can be switched to either minimum
of maximum fail-safe mode, ensuring quiescent current operation in all applications. The switch status is indicated by an LED. A guard electrode eliminates interference factors due to the vessel wall or possible build-up,
for example.Application Example
1: Overfill protection or upper level detection (MAX)
2: Dry-running protection or lower level detection (MIN) -

IO-Link
Besides its general benefits, summarized below, using IO-Link point-to-point communication with our capacitance point level switch Nivector FTI26 allows:
• Two switch outputs, configurable via IO-Link
• Setting up the device for usage in powdery products with DC values down to 1.3
• Better active build-up compensation

Digital measured values:
• Faultless transmission (e.g. EMC caused)
• No conversion, thus a higher total accuracy
More data
• Possibility to carry more values
• Detailed fault information
• Additional process information
Central parameters storage
• Possibility to load set up parameters from the master into a device
• Configuration can be duplicated from one device to the next
• Remote sensor maintenance
