Application
Liquipoint T sensors are used in conductive liquids for determining point levels. Depending on the number of measuring points, measuring tasks such as overspill protection, dry running protection, two-point control of pumps or multiple point detection can be implemented within an existing process connection.
Function
An alternating voltage exists between the rod probes in an empty tank. As soon as the conductive liquid in the tank creates a connection between the ground rod probe and the maximum rod probe, for example, a measurable current flows and the Liquipoint T switches.
By using alternating voltage, corrosion of the probe ends and electroytic destruction of the product is avoided. As the system is designed as a closed potential-free circuit between the probe rods and the electronics, the materials used in the tank walls is unimportant and there is no danger if the probe rods are touched during operation.
Application Examples
Probes with integrated electronic insert (compact instrument version)
The measuring system consists of:
- FTW31, FTW32 with two/three rods or ropes and an electronic insert
- Control units, switches or signal transmitters. e.g. process control systems PLC, relays or NAMUR isolating amplifier according to IEC 60947-5-6
Probes without integrated electronic insert (separate instrument version)
The measuring system consists of:
- FTW31, FTW32 with two to five rods or ropes
- Nivotester FTW325 or FTW470 Z
- Control units, switches or signal transmitters, e.g. process control systems PLC, relays, etc.
The number of Nivotester depends on the number of measuring points (e.g. 4 measuring points with 2 Nivotester FTW).
