Point Level Switching Systems

Our point level switching solutions ignore the effect of buildup or material coating on the sensing element. The technology, R.F. admittance, employed by these products indicates presence or absence of media, making it by far the most versatile technology. This technology is good for a very wide range conditions from cryogenics to high temperature, from vacuum to 10,000 psi pressure and it works with all types of materials.

For specific details of available R.F. Admittance systems please select from the following:-

Clearline

506-7000 Series Level Transmitter 406-7000 Series Electronics

The Clearline In Line Fluid Detector is a unique non-intrusive design that mounts directly into the process piping. Cote Shield™ circuitry allows the switch to ignore material buildup on the sensing element. It can be used for pump cavitation protection, low level in the outlet piping of lined vessels, or interface detection below a storage vessel.

IntelliPoint RF - Line Powered

The IntelliPoint RF Series is able to detect the presence or absence of material without adjustments. Simply install it in a tank and apply the power. The IntelliPoint RF’s software continuously monitors the application for changes in composition, dielectric or conductivity and maintains a repeatable trip point on the probe. Other RF and capacitance systems require calibration adjustments when the process material changes. Since the IntelliPoint RF Series recognizes changes in material, it is ideal for non-dedicated tanks that are used for a variety of products.

The IntelliPoint RF Series is housed in a dual compartment enclosure that separates the customer wiring and power supply from the sensing element and operating circuits.

The encapsulated power supply/terminal block design also eliminates the possibility of damage caused by moisture in the conduit.

In addition to the new enclosure, the IntelliPoint RF Series incorporates several other design features:

A universal power supply automatically detects the input power source and eliminates the need to configure jumpers or choose from various wiring configurations. Time delay is standard, and can be selected to delay the system from going into alarm or from recovering from an alarm. All systems include a continuous Verify™ self test, ensuring proper operation and system integrity.

IntelliPoint RF - SIL Compliant

Our Best and most versatile point level switch for liquids, slurries, granulars, and interface applications. With the IntelliPoint, simply install the sensor in your vessel and connect the power. The IntelliPoint, with an Auto-Ranging power supply, automatically calibrates itself. The self-test function of the IntelliPoint insures proper system operation. An AutoVerify™ self check circuit continuously monitors the complete system to verify it is functioning properly. The manual Certify™ not only checks the function of the system, but also checks the AutoVerify self-test circuits to make sure that they are also working properly. All these features make the IntelliPoint the most versatile RF switch on the market.

  • AutoVerify™ and Certify™ test features for critical applications
  • Cote-Shield™ circuitry ignores coatings
  • No moving parts for maintenance free operation
  • Applications from cryogenic to 2,000ºF, vacuum to 10,000 psi
  • SIL 1 and SIL 2 compliant models

The Point

RF Point Level Switch

No Calibration
The only RF switch you won't calibrate. Simply install ThePoint into the tank and apply power …that's it! Unlike other RF or capacitance systems that require calibration via setpoint potentiometers, jumpers, magnets, or pushbuttons, ThePoint series reliably detects the absence or presence of material without any adjustments.

ThePoint series software continuously monitors the application for changes in composition, dielectric or conductivity, and maintains a repeatable trip point on the probe. Other RF and capacitance systems require calibration adjustments when the process material is changed. Since ThePoint recognizes changes in material,it is ideal for non-dedicated tanks that are used for a wide variety of products.

Lower Cost of Ownership
In addition to lower initial investment, ThePoint continues to save with little or no maintenance compared with other technologies. Further, the sensor can be lengthened or shortened in the field, saving need for additional purchases.

Universal Power Supply
ThePoint electronics use a universal power supply module that can be powered from a 19 to 253 Vac or 19 to 55 Vdc supply without moving jumpers.

Z-tron III

Z-tron III™ Point Level Switch A Reliable Low-Cost, On/Off Level Switch

The low-cost,Drexelbrook Z-tron III level switch is unaffected by sticky coatings and impervious to corrosive liquids.

The all-electronic design means no moving parts to wear,break or fail. Based on field-proven RF technology,the Z-tron III is a simple and reliable on/off level switch.

The compact one-piece unit is inserted through a standard 3/4-inch NPT opening into the vessel so that the sensing element is positioned at the desired high or low level. (Other connection types and sizes are also available). When the material level reaches a predetermined point on the sensing element,it causes a change in status at the electronic unit,resulting in actuation of the DPDT relay. The relay can be used to operate alarms, annunciators,valves,or other control or indication devices.
