Introduction
The LVCN Series are capacitance switches ideal for High/Low level detection for
liquid, solids, granular materials and pastes. These units can also detect level
without being in contact with the product through a sight glass. Unlike other
capacitance probes, the LVCN6000/7000 can detect conductive, non-conductive or
low dielectric materials with extremely accurate performance without requiring an
external reference or installation in a metal vessel.
The sensor operates in a manner that is similar to a simple capacitor. A high
frequency oscillator is located within the tip of the probe. When the tip of the probe
comes in contact with the medium, the frequency of the oscillation reaches a preset
point and the detection circuit signals the switch to change state.
Technology
Both models can be made with cable or rod rigid stainless steel giving more flexibility
to complex applications.
