Press Release Summary = Sapcon's Admittance Level switch.SLA series is used for Level limit detection of fine, coarse, solids of low dielectric constant that have a tendency to stick, coat and develop static charge at high vessel temperatures.
Press Release Body = It's used for switching conveyors off to avoid overflow and for indicating an empty tank well in time to avoid production stoppage. Special probe design is provided for detecting level of fly ash in ESP hoppers. SLA series of level switches are successfully used in process industries viz. cement, power, steel, food, chemicals, fertilizer, sugar, detergent etc.
SLA has high durability and system reliability as it neither has any moving parts nor requires maintenance. It involves a fast and an easy installation. Calibration is possible from remote location. A special 10 LED dot display/bar display simplifies calibration and indicates material trend in vicinity of the point level. The instrument has no electronic insert in probe head and RF signal transmission between probe and evaluation unit via co-axial cable with drain wire having driven shield arrangement eliminates cable capacitance and drift due to change of cable capacitance with temperature. Every model has Fail-Safe high/low selection feature. It ignores buildup of service material between probe and vessel walls and coating using a three electrode technique with driven shield arrangement to achieve high degree immunity.
