Product catalog summary
Overview
Gill Sensors & Controls Limited introduces the LevelSlick sensor, designed for reliable liquid level measurement across various challenging liquids, including slurries, syrups, and varnishes. The sensor employs continuous conductive technology, offering a robust solution for environments where traditional ultrasonic level measurement may fail.

Key Features
  • Non-Stick Coating: The sensor is coated with hydrophobic PTFE, preventing the accumulation of solids and ensuring low maintenance.
  • Cost Efficiency: Easy installation and low lifetime costs make it a cost-effective solution.
  • Versatile Application: Suitable for both metal and plastic tanks, and unaffected by tank shape or proximity to tank walls.
  • High Precision: The 12-bit device offers 4096 steps between full and empty, measuring levels in increments of less than 0.5mm.

Product Description
The LevelSlick sensor features a robust contacting probe with a non-stick coating, ideal for measuring levels of viscous or corrosive liquids, sludges, or slurries. It is particularly effective in environments with suspended matter, such as sewage treatment works.

Installation and Use
  • Easy Setup: The sensor is ready to use out of the box, requiring no tank draining or refilling.
  • Compatibility: Works with various tank materials and shapes, including flat and dished bottoms.
  • Cleaning: The sensor is easy to clean and decontaminate, making it suitable for industries like dental varnish manufacturing.

Technical Specifications
  • Lengths: Available in multiple lengths from 250mm to 2000mm, with special lengths on request.
  • Output Options: 4-20mA, 0-10v, or resistive outputs available.
  • Software: GSlevel software allows customization of output settings and tank profiling for volumetric output.

Customer Feedback
Customers have praised the LevelSlick for its ability to handle viscous products and provide accurate liquid level data, eliminating guesswork and reducing maintenance.

Conclusion
The LevelSlick sensor by Gill Sensors & Controls offers a reliable, cost-effective solution for challenging liquid level measurement applications, with easy installation and maintenance, making it a preferred choice across various industries.

Product Success Sensor Benefits Originally designed for the challenges of marine black water (sewage) tanks, LevelSlick has found a home in many other challenging environments. Gill currently has a fleet of sensors deployed protecting the UK domestic waste water networks from over flowing as well as other sensors monitoring the level of waste water in sewage treatment works. Thanks to the PTFE coating, the sensor resists the accumulation of suspended matter in waste water; which can include toilet paper and other solids flushed into the waste water system. A solid PTFE covered probe brings a...
