Description | |
The compact system NRGT 26-1 works according to the capacitance measurement principle. The NRGT 26-1 is designed for signalling different levels in conductive and non-conductive liquids: |
n Water level maintained within the control band defined by two preset limits. |
The NRGT 26-1 has a level transmitter integrated in the terminal box which produces a standard output signal of 4-20 mA. External switchgear is not required. |
Function | |
The principle of capacitance measurement is applied to determine the level. The electrode rod and the vessel wall form a capacitor. If the level of the dielectric located between the two capacitor plates changes, the current which flows through the plates changes proportionally to the level. A dielectric is defined as an insulating substance, which excludes many liquids such as water. In order to receive a useful measuring result the measuring rod, which is completely submerged in the liquid, must be completely insulated. After calibration of the zero point/measuring range (0 % - 100 %) of the control unit, the level can be read off from a remote display unit. The level measuring range can be changed during operation. |
