Level sensors LFC - SICK

The LFC capacitive level from SICK switch is a flexible, simple and cost-effective solution for point level measurement in fluid media.
 
When measuring containers or for dry-run protection in piping, the LFC from SICK features particularly high performance. The level switch is easy to install and is characterized by a compact design and long service life. It is also very easy to clean. The sensor can be parameterized for almost any media by means of IO-Link. Its EHEDG and 3-A certified hygienic design and the option of using it at process temperatures up to +135 °C also make it very suitable for CIP and SIP applications. The LFC can easily display or blank foam and deposits.
