CLS100 Pointek Capacitance Point Level Sensor
Simens CLS100 Pointek range provide accurate, reliable, repeatable level detection. Inverse frequency shift technology uses the inverse relationship between capacitance frequency to monitor fluid level. Small changes in level result in a large change in frequency resulting in excellent accuracy. Compact design to aid installation in tight spaces, on small chemical batch tanks, for empty pipe line detection or for water/oil lubrication pump reservoirs.
Tip sensitive
Versatile, compact 100mm insertion level switch
Suitable for liquids, solids, slurries, foam and interface applications
Inverse Frequency Shift technology for difficult applications where vibrating fork (tuning fork) or traditional sensors prove unsuitable
High resistance to material build-up
Easy to install and calibrate
PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) corrosion-resistant material offers excellent chemical compatibility
Low or zero maintenance - no moving parts
May be installed in tight spaces e.g. a high and low level switch on
Approvals
CSA Certified, FM
What is a capacitive switch?
A capacitive switch is a sort of touch-controlled electrical switch that works by estimating change in capacitance. It works in same way as regular capacitive cell phone: when you contact the surface — assuming you aren't wearing gloves — a little electrical charge is exchanged from your body to the switch, which in this manner causes an adjustment in capacitance. The switch recognizes this change, reacting with the suitable order.
After contacting a capacitive switch, this electrical charge disturbs the switch's own electrical charge; accordingly, causing an adjustment in capacitance. Due to this change, the switch can recognize when and where the touch happened, which is basically how capacitive switches function.
