The CPLT-1200L provides accurate, continuous process level data to your DCS, PLC, and telemetry systems.
Working Principle of Continuous Capacitance Level Transmitter (Liquids)
The CPLT-1200L utilizes the principle of variable electrical capacitance. The insulated sensing probe acts as one electrode of a capacitor, and the metallic tank wall (or a parallel ground reference tube) acts as the counter electrode.
As liquid rises in the vessel, the air dielectric (εr ≈ 1) between the electrodes is replaced by the higher dielectric constant of the liquid. This produces a linear increase in capacitance.
The integral high-frequency electronic circuit converts this capacitance change into a calibrated 4-20mA current loop proportional to liquid level.
