Design & Functionality
The DLM-35 operates using capacitive measurement technology. When the measured material level changes, the capacitance between the electrode and the tank wall also changes. The internal electronics convert this capacitance variation into an analog output signal such as 4–20 mA or 0–10 V, which can be integrated into PLC systems, industrial controllers, and monitoring software.
Its stainless-steel construction ensures durability and long operational life even in demanding industrial conditions. The device supports various process connections and electrode configurations, enabling installation in different tank types, including conductive and non-conductive vessels.
Total Crossed Beams
The advanced sensing structure ensures stable measurement performance even in environments with varying dielectric properties. This allows the device to maintain accurate level detection for both conductive liquids and non-conductive materials such as oils, powders, and granulates.
Beam Pitch Options
Different electrode configurations allow installation flexibility depending on the application. Rod electrodes are typically used for liquid level measurement, while rope electrodes allow measurement in tall silos and bulk storage tanks. Insulated electrode options are available for aggressive or conductive media.
Intrinsic Synchronism
Special intrinsically safe versions are designed for hazardous industrial environments. These variants allow safe installation in explosive atmospheres or areas where gas, dust, or flammable materials may be present. This ensures compliance with industrial safety standards while maintaining measurement reliability.
Operational Advantages
The DLM-35 capacitive level meter delivers several operational benefits for industrial facilities. It enables continuous monitoring of storage tanks and process vessels, helping operators maintain optimal material levels and prevent overflow or empty tank conditions. The robust design minimizes maintenance requirements while ensuring stable performance over long operating periods.
With its flexible configuration, industrial-grade durability, and precise measurement output, the DLM-35 provides a dependable solution for modern process automation and industrial level measurement systems.
