Notes:

• Pointek CLS200/300 is available in two models: the standard model, and the digital model with integral local display. For information on the CLS200/300 Digital, please see manual 7ML19985JJ01.

• Pointek CLS200/300 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this instruction manual, otherwise protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

• This product is intended for use in industrial areas. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause interference to several frequency based communications.

Pointek CLS200/300 is a versatile capacitance switch, ideal for level detection of interfaces, solids, liquids, slurries, and foam, and for simple pump control. The switch responds to the presence of any material with a relative dielectric constant of 1.5 or more by detecting a change in capacitance, which is registered as a change in oscillating

Pointek CLS200/300

frequency.

The switch can be set to detect before contact or on contact with the probe. The design of the CLS200 standard allows the instrument to operate independently of the tank wall or pipe, so it does not require an external reference electrode for level detection in a nonconductive vessel such as concrete or plastic. The CLS300 standard requires a connection to earth/ground for effective capacitance measurement.

The power supply is galvanically isolated and can accept voltages in the range 12 to 250 V AC/DC, depending on the application. The materials used in the probe construction provide a high level of chemical resistance, and an excellent temperature rating on the process wetted portion of the probe: up to 125 °C (257 °F) for the CLS200 and 400 °C (752 °F) for the CLS300.

Page 4 Pointek CLS200/300 Standard – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 7ML19985JH01

Modular design and construction provide a wide choice of configurations, including rod, cable, and sanitary versions. When used with a SensGuard protection cover, the CLS200 sensor is protected from shearing, impact, and abrasion, in tough primary processes.

Pointek CLS200/300 Applications

Pointek CLS200/300 is designed for level detection and simple pump control in a variety of applications:

• Liquids, solids (powder and granules), slurries, interface detection (for example, oil/ water), and foam detection

• Foods and pharmaceuticals

• Chemical and petrochemical

• High pressure and temperature

Pointek CLS200/300 Features

• Potted construction protects components from shock, vibration, humidity, and/or condensation

• High chemical resistance on probes

• Level detection independent of tank wall/pipe (CLS200 only)

• Freely programmable set up covers wide range of applications/materials

• Integrated Local User Interface (LUI) for ease of use

• Rigid and cable versions available

• Operation in safety related systems for overspill in accordance with IEC61508/61511 SIL2

• Patented Active Shield minimizes the effect of product build-up at the sensor mounting point (CLS300 only)
