Anderson-Negele LS Capacitive Point Level Switch

Anderson Negele Level Switch (LS) point level detector is designed to provide reliable point measurement in a compact sensor suitable for a broad variety of applications and installations. Particularly suited for the detection of water-based (>25%) liquid media in vessels or pipes, the LS excels in foamy or viscous applications. Utilizing RF capacitive technology, the LS detects changes in the dielectric constant from air to detected media. Fast reacting, the LS will detect changes in state in less than one second. Featuring a dielectric threshold adjustment, sensor sensitivity may be selected to accommodate a broad range of media while eliminating false readings. The LS is also equipped with status LEDs and available with an optional windowed cover allowing local indication of sensor condition simplifying startup and diagnostic procedures. A simple three-wire connection allows power and signal to connect directly to a PLC without the need for an external relay module. Standard Anderson quick disconnect eases installation by utilizing a three-conductor cable. The receptacle even maintains NEMA 4X watertight protection when disconnected. Finally, the stainless steel enclosure is designed to protect from the rigours of frequent wash downs and vibration
