SOLUTIONS FOR LEVEL DETECTION

Product catalog summary

Overview
This document provides an overview of various sensor solutions offered by Balluff for level detection in different industrial applications. These sensors are designed to measure and monitor fill levels in containers, tanks, and pipes, both metallic and non-metallic, under various conditions including harsh and hazardous environments.

Through-Beam Fork Sensors
These sensors are ideal for critical filling processes, capable of detecting limit levels in semi-transparent containers and small tubes. They feature contact-free, wear-free operation and easy installation.

Capacitive Sensors
BCS capacitive sensors are used for reliable level measurement of fluids, suitable for both non-conductive and conductive media. They compensate for deposits in tanks and are easy to install.

Magnetostrictive Linear Position Sensors
BTL sensors monitor fill levels from outside the tank, offering reliability for hygiene-critical and hazardous processes. They are simple to install and can be retrofitted on tanks.

Guided Radar Sensors
BMD guided radar sensors are designed for harsh environments, providing precise level measurement of liquids and solids. They are suitable for dust- and foam-forming media and can be used in explosion hazard areas.

Self-Adhesive Capacitive Sensor Heads
BCW sensor heads offer non-contact level measurement on containers or pipe walls, ensuring security for hygienic processes. They feature a flexible sensor surface and a detection range up to 850 mm.

Ultrasonic Sensors
BUS ultrasonic sensors detect solid, powder, and liquid media without contact, suitable for use in tanks and containers at pressures up to 6 bar.

Pressure Sensors
BSP pressure sensors provide a pressure range of 50 mbar and greater, ideal for hygienic requirements with a bright LED display for local pressure tracking.

Level Sensors for Foam
BTL-SF level sensors offer high sampling rate and accuracy, ideal for fast and precise filling processes. They are unaffected by foam and meet high sanitary standards.

Conclusion
Balluff offers a wide range of sensor solutions for level detection across various industries, ensuring high precision and reliability in monitoring fill levels under diverse conditions.
