Low Cost RF Capacitance Transmitter
(Solid State) CS001 Series

The CS001 RF Capacitance Transmitter offers a compact and affordable solution to a wide variety of level sensing applications. With 4-20 mA and 0-5 VDC or 0-10 VDC selectable outputs, the solid state sensor provides accurate, proportional level measurement in many extreme process temperatures and fluid conditions. The CS001 features a simple, fully programmable four button calibration to set for whatever media it is measuring. Its 316 stainless steel probe comes in lengths up to 120" and is available in NEMA 4 or explosion-proof housings.

Measurement Principle:
A stored capacitance charge between the probe plates changes with the level of immersed liquid between them. The microprocessor-based electronics adjusts for the difference of the fluid and converts the output to a proportional current or voltage signal.
