FAST AND EASY LEVEL DETECTION WITHOUT SETUP

January 4, 2023

Welcome to the Midwest. Ambient temperature can swing as much as 30 degrees in a matter of hours. The incorrect level measurement due to changes in ambient or process temperature could cause tanks to overflow -leading to safety hazards, lost product, inventory control issues, and possible contamination risks.

The CleverLevel PL20 level switches do not require configuration for your point level application!

The new generation of Industry 4.0 level switches automatically adapt their frequency sweep technology to reliably detect ANY media it sees. This saves setup time while ensuring high process safety. Regardless of liquids, oils, sticky, or granular pastes – the CleverLevel PL20 recognizes them reliably.

THE CLEVER ALTERNATIVE TO VIBRATING FORKS

With the latest generation of the CleverLevel level switches, Baumer offers an excellent solution for applications in the process industry, from media detection in pipes to reliable overfill protection of tanks or leakage detection. The CleverLevel PL20 is the universal level switch for all media. In case of adhesive materials, the CleverLevel continues to automatically adjust the switching level without the need for any configuration. With its compact design and very short immersion length compared to a vibrating fork, the sensor is very flexible to install, minimally invasive in the process, and easy to clean.

LEVEL OF WHAT?

With the different trigger modes available, you can now detect the high or low level of product, foam, and separation layer of liquids with a single switch. Thanks to an optional 4 .. 20 mA analog output signal, this technology can also differentiate the media in the process so you can tell if a tank contains product or cleaning solution. The IO-link interface supports both continuous communication for control and simple commissioning of the sensor.

Your team went above and beyond

I just wanted to let you know your team went above and beyond. I requested a replacement valve that needed to meet our new requirements. Dave and James produced a valve that met all my needs. Without the need for a pipe modification. Which will help us with keeping the down time of the equipment low. There was an issue that caused this valve to be needed by Wednesday. These two individuals jumped through hoops to make sure I will have the valve by Wednesday. They also have a backup valve option just in case. The hard work and reassurance helped me convey to my management that your team is crucial to our success. I appreciate everyone that helped.

No calibration needed

Eight years later...no calibration needed! Yokogawa active digital pressure transmitters installed throughout the facility are still in service and have never needed any zero or span adjustment.

Easy and affordable

I Would like to comment on how easy it was to install the new Schubert & Salzer valves that replaced the bigger and heavier globe valves. The spool pieces provided by Shubert made this transition very easy and affordable.
