LevelCheck LC 510

Product catalog summary
Overview
The LevelCheck LC 510 is a microwave barrier designed for contactless level monitoring of bulk materials in various industrial settings. It is suitable for use in silos, containers, bunkers, and more, ensuring continuous supply and preventing overfilling.

Applications
The device is applicable across multiple industries including animal feed, building materials, cement, ceramics, chemicals, detergents, food, glass, metals, minerals, pharmaceuticals, pigments, power plants, pulp and paper, recycling, synthetic materials, textiles, and waste incineration.

Main Benefits
  • Reliable contactless microwave technology.
  • Operates effectively up to 25 meters between emitter and receiver.
  • Unaffected by dirt, dust, or steam.
  • Non-intrusive to materials being monitored.
  • Adjustable settings for amplification, filter, hysteresis, and delay.
  • Compact, easy installation, and robust stainless steel design.
  • Maintenance-free with active self-monitoring for safe operation.
  • Optional ATEX protection for hazardous environments.

Functionality
The LC 510 uses microwave technology to detect materials between an emitter and receiver placed up to 25 meters apart. It can monitor fill levels and detect objects, with adjustable settings for flexibility. Optional versions are available for ATEX zones and high-pressure environments.
