Anderson-Negele NSL-F(R)
Continuous Level Sensor | Food, Beverage and Dairy
Level Sensors, IO-Link
Potentiometric, continuous level measurement for metallic vessels up to 3000 mm for process temperatures up to 140°C/284°F.
- Optimized resource efficiency through precise measurement even for demanding applications with foam, pasty or highly adhesive media.
- Flex-Hybrid: Digital IO-Link and analogue 4…20 mA parallel.
- Automatic adaptation to media, no adjustment required when changing media.
- Extremely fast response time < 100 ms for filling processes.
- Simple User Interface mit Display.
- Hygienic alternative to float sensors due to easily sterilisable installation solution.
- Hygienic thread G1/2″ and G1″ (CLEANadapt), Tri-Clamp 1” – 3“ as well as Varivent® type F and N.
- Ideal for adhesive and pasty media.
- For media with conductivity < 50 μS/cm.
- Installation in vessels at the top, the side or from below.
- Modular design: configurable from the low-cost basic version to the high-end model.
Benefits in production processes
For efficient production processes, continuous, precise monitoring of the filling level of feed tanks, storage tanks or fillers is essential. The flexible, modular level sensor NSL-F with its potentiometric measuring principle offers a reliable and precise application even with difficult to measure media and with demanding applications such as:
- Strongly or differently foaming media.
- Pasty media or media adhering to the measuring rod.
- Pressurized tanks.
- Fast level changes, e.g. during filling processes.
- Non-metallic tanks.
- Different media in one tank.
- Tank shapes with restricted installation access.
- Production environments with high mechanical or Chemical stress (e.g. cleaning agents).
- Maximum resource efficiency due to precise measurement even with demanding media: Even with foam or with the measuring rod coated by pasty or strongly adhesive media, the measuring accuracy is <1% of the rod length.
- Ready for industry 4.0: digital IO-Link interface and analog 4…20 mA data transmission in parallel.
- Ideal for metallic, non-metallic and pressurized tanks due to rod length from 50 mm to 3 m, installation from below, above or from the side and optional versions.
- Extremely fast response time < 100 ms for precise dosing monitoring, e.g. for filling systems.
- Automatic adjustment to media, no adaptation required with alternating media in one tank.
- Hygienic alternative to float sensors due to easily sterilizable installation solution.
- Robust construction made entirely of stainless steel.
