Cape-11H Ultra-high Temperature Admittance Level Switch is specially designed for applications in which process temperature is over 250°C to 450°C maximum. The probe is made of high temperature ceramics. It is widely used in metallurgy, environmental protection, chemical industry, etc.
In Cape-11 RF series, a probe is designed to detect the change of capacitance and impedance between probe and vessel wall to realize level measurement and control. In its electronic unit, reactance between the measurement electrode and the wall of an empty vessel constitutes a balanced bridge circuit which outputs a stable oscillation signal. As the level rises, the measurement electrode is covered by the medium, and reactance between the electrode and the wall of the vessel changes. It causes an imbalance of the bridge circuit and stops the oscillation as a result. A post-circuit is designed to detect the change of output signal from the bridge circuit and generate an alarm signal. In addition, oscillation signal at radio frequency is not only applied to the measurement electrode but also applied to a shield pole through a 1: 1 voltage-follower, so measurement electrode and shield pole have the same electric potential, phase, and frequency, but these two electrodes are insulated from each other. Even if there is medium buildup on the probe, because there is no electric potential difference between measurement electrode and shield pole, the reactance change on shield pole has no effect on the detection of post-circuit. Therefore, only reactance change on the measurement electrode induced by the filled medium between the measurement electrode and the wall of the vessel will be detected by post-circuit. It eliminates the effect of medium buildup on level measurement.
