Capacitive level switch OPTISWITCH 6600

for ships

The OPTISWITCH 6600 is a capacitance level switch for hygienic and industrial applications. The switch detects high or low level or serves as overfill, dry-run or pump protection. The device can also detect liquid-liquid interfaces or a change of media characteristics. It operates independently of the mounting position. With a reverse thread, it can be mounted into an extension tube for a top-mounted low level detection. The microwave level switch is resistant to CIP and SIP agents. Product highlights Unaffected by foam, condensate or build-up of deposits Can be set to detect foam or even a change in media characteristics of the same liquid Very fast response times Maintenance-free, can be installed in any position Large choice of hygienic process connections EHEDG and 3A certified; complies with FDA and EC1935/2004 Lloyd's Register and DNV approvals for the marine industry Suited for ATEX hazardous areas Typical applications Small tanks and hygienic applications Tanks with foamy, pasty or strongly adhesive media Level detection (e.g. of mustard, ketchup, etc.) Dry-run protection (e.g. of cream)
