Technical details and application highlights

Review the complete description, feature set, and specification details before sending your inquiry.

The NivoBob NB 3400 is an advanced electromechanical plumb bob sensor engineered for continuous interface level measurement in industrial tanks and settling basins. Designed to detect separating layers between solids and liquids, this sensor provides highly reliable monitoring without requiring calibration. Its robust measuring principle ensures accurate performance even in demanding process environments such as wastewater treatment plants and sedimentation systems.

Key Features

  • Continuous interface level measurement for solids in liquids
  • Calibration-free operation for easy installation and maintenance
  • High mechanical strength with durable construction materials
  • Flexible output signals including analog and digital communication
  • Self-diagnostic functionality for improved operational reliability

Application

The NB 3400 is widely used in industries where accurate monitoring of sludge or sediment layers is critical. It is ideal for wastewater treatment facilities, settling tanks, clarifiers, and industrial process basins. The sensor helps operators maintain optimal process conditions by providing precise data on interface levels, preventing overflow, and improving separation efficiency.

Design & Functionality

This sensor operates using a proven electromechanical lot measurement principle. A weighted probe is lowered into the medium until it detects the interface between solid and liquid layers. The system measures the distance accurately and continuously, ensuring reliable level detection without drift or recalibration. Its rugged aluminium housing and stainless steel wetted parts ensure long-term durability.

Total Crossed Beams

The NB 3400 utilizes a mechanical sensing approach rather than optical or ultrasonic beams, eliminating interference from dust, foam, or turbulence. This ensures consistent performance across varying process conditions.

Beam Pitch Options

As a mechanical system, the NB 3400 does not rely on beam pitch configurations. Instead, it offers adjustable sensitivity to adapt to different material densities and interface characteristics.

Intrinsic Synchronism

The sensor maintains stable and synchronized measurement cycles through its controlled electromechanical operation, ensuring repeatable and precise readings over time.

Operational Advantages

The NB 3400 significantly reduces manual measurement efforts and improves operational efficiency. Its ability to function without calibration minimizes downtime and maintenance costs. With high resistance to harsh environmental conditions, it delivers consistent performance, making it a dependable solution for industrial level monitoring applications.
