BINMASTER® Capacitance Probes
Capacitance Probes are used for high- and low-level detection in bins, silos, tanks, hoppers, chutes, and other vessels used for material storage or process manufacturing. They detect the presence or absence of material in contact with the probe by sensing minute changes (as low as 0.5 pF) in capacitance caused by the difference in the dielectric constant of the material vs. the air. They feature a Class II hazardous location rating and are available with a wide assortment of probes and extensions to meet a variety of processing needs.
