Level Measurement & Control


Large measuring ranges

February 2009 Level Measurement & Control

Continuous level measurement over a measuring range of up to 8 metres.

The Tower-Sens is a rod detector based on the level gauging system LB 490 Uni-Probe, designed specifically to monitor large measuring ranges.

With only one electronic unit and only one flameproof-housing, the Tower-Sens is an economical alternative to systems comprising several short, cascading detectors. It is also easy to wire and the risks of complete system failure have been reduced.

The combination of good value, reliability, accuracy and low source activity make the Tower-Sens the ideal solution for measuring ranges exceeding a length of 2 metres.

System highlights include:

* Constant high measurement accuracy over the entire measuring range, even under varying temperatures.

* Low maintenance requirements.

* Reliability over many years.

* Low source activity due to high sensitivity.

* Minimum radiation protection stipulations.
