Description

The LV5100 is no longer available please contact our Flow and Level Engineering department for possible substitute.

The LV5100 heavy duty sensing elements are used with the LV5900 RF capacitive transmitters for continuous monitoring of levels in tanks. They are used in common applications for many chemically compatible liquids or granular solids which do not leave a conductive coating on the probe surface. Heavy duty level sensing probes are available with 316SS or Hastelloy C wetted metal parts. The electrode can be coated with TFE Teflon ® or PVDF (Kynar) for use with conductive (10 microMhos/cm or greater) fluids. (Typical process water, excluding purified, distilled, or deionized water, will be much more conductive than this.) The electrode portion of the standard insulated probe is 316SS, which would not be wetted when the insulation option is used. The LV5100 heavy duty probes are not recommended for use in materials which tend to form a conductive film on the electrode surface. (The LV5200 enhanced performance elements can be used in such applications.) Water-based latex paint, fine carbon powder, or fine metallic powders are examples of materials that leave conductive coatings on the probes. Transmitters must be purchased separately.
