The RF 3200 capacitive level sensor is engineered for accurate point level detection in bulk solids across industrial storage and process applications. Designed to operate reliably in challenging environments, it supports materials with low dielectric constants while maintaining consistent performance. Its rugged construction and advanced sensing capabilities make it a dependable solution for industries handling powders, granules, and solid materials.

Key Features

  • Accurate detection of bulk solids with low dielectric properties
  • High resistance to material buildup for consistent measurement
  • Operates under extreme temperatures up to +240°C
  • Suitable for high-pressure environments up to 25 bar
  • Robust mechanical design for long-term industrial use
  • Adjustable sensitivity and switching parameters for flexibility

Application

The RF 3200 is widely used in silos, storage tanks, and process vessels for monitoring full, demand, and empty levels. It is ideal for industries such as cement, food processing, chemicals, and agriculture where bulk material handling is critical. It helps prevent overflow, ensures process continuity, and improves inventory control.

Design & Functionality

The sensor operates on a capacitive measurement principle, detecting changes in capacitance caused by the presence of bulk material. Its innovative shielding functionality ensures that buildup on the probe does not affect measurement accuracy, reducing maintenance requirements and improving reliability.

Total Crossed Beams

The sensor design ensures uniform detection coverage across the sensing zone, allowing consistent level indication regardless of material distribution within the vessel.

Beam Pitch Options

Flexible probe configurations such as rod and rope versions allow adaptation to different vessel sizes and installation requirements, ensuring optimized sensing performance.

Intrinsic Synchronism

The RF 3200 maintains stable operation even in fluctuating process conditions, ensuring synchronized and reliable switching performance without signal disturbances.

Operational Advantages

This sensor enhances operational efficiency by minimizing false alarms and reducing manual recalibration. Its durability and adaptability make it suitable for continuous industrial use, while its resistance to buildup ensures uninterrupted performance. By providing accurate level detection, it supports safer operations, reduces material loss, and improves overall process control.
