Capacitance Probe

A capacitance probe is a point level indicator, commonly used for high or low level detection in a bin, tank or silo. BinMaster capacitance probes offer fail-safe operation, “Quick-Set” calibration, plus interference-free operation – working far below the RF level of 9 KHz at just 6 KHz – so they will not interfere with two-way radios or other equipment operating in the radio spectrum. Standard features include a triple-thread, screw-off cover to allow easy access to internal components, dual conduit entries to simplify wiring, and an FDA-recognized powder coat finish. The dual time delay feature allows the user to set flexible time delays up to 30 seconds for covered and uncovered conditions.

Features & Benefits

  • “Quick-Set” simple calibration
  • Triple thread screw-off cover
  • Dual conduit entrance
  • Unsurpassed sensitivity 0.5 pF
  • PRO-Shield compensates for material buildup
  • Operates below RF range, temperature stable calibration and protection from RF interference
  • Fail-safe, switch selectable high/low
  • Adjustable time delay to 30 seconds
  • Optional sensing probes: Delrin or Teflon sleeved, bare, food grade, flush mount, solid and flexible extensions
  • Visual LED indicates sensor status: uncovered, covered or power failure
