Capanivo® CN 4 - High performance at an extremely attractive price
Plug and play level limit switch for all bulk materials with a bulk density (DK value) of 1.6 or higher
The capacitive level sensors of the series
are used in storage and process containers as full, demand, and empty detectors for all bulk materials with a bulk density (DK value) of 1.6 or higher. Additionally, the sensors are deployed in pneumatic conveying systems as level and backflow detectors. The probe, made of glass fiber-reinforced PPS plastic, is FDA-compliant and suitable for use in the food industry. The implemented "Active Shield" technology makes the level measurement insensitive to applications with adherent material.The probe is available in the following versions: compact, with pipe extension, and with cable extension. A version designed for elevated temperatures (up to 180°C) is also available. Pipe and cable extensions can be flexibly configured in different lengths. The cable version is the suitable solution in applications where there might be lateral force on the probe, such as from the filling stream or collapsing mounds of material.
YOUR BENEFITS:
- Very cost-effective level limit switch for bulk materials
- Simple, reliable, and maintenance-free multi talent
- Plug and play level limit switch without calibration
- High sensitivity for all bulk material
What are the advantages of the capacitive level switch CN 4?
- Plug & Play - no calibration required for the material
- High sensitivity, reliable, and safe even with bulk materials with a low DK value
- Robust and corrosion-resistant thanks to glass fiber-reinforced PPS plastic
- Accurate and reliable level measurement with any container material, whether metallic or non-metallic
- Active buildup compensation (Active Shield Technology), reliable even with material adhering to the probe
- Different versions available: compact, with pipe extension, cable extension, and a version for elevated process temperatures (up to 180°C)
- Food-compliant materials
- Compact design with a 1" process connection
- The Capanivo® CN 4 is one of the most cost-effective level indicators of its kind.
