Flexible and straightforward point level measurement - the economic solution

 

The LFC capacitive level switch is a flexible, simple and cost-effective solution for point level measurement in fluid media. Using IO-Link, the sensor can be parameterized for many media. The LFC is especially suitable for measurements in containers or for dry-run protection in piping. The level switch is easy to install and is characterized by a compact design and long service life. It withstands process pressures up to 64 bar. The LFC is also very easy to clean. Thanks to its hygienic design and the ability to use the sensor at process temperatures up to +135 °C, it is also suitable for CIP and SIP applications. The LFC can display or blank foam and deposits.
