Rechner Conductivity Sensors (RCS)
Rechner Conductivity Sensors (RCS) are designed for detection of electrically conductive liquids. Conductivity Sensors are certified for use in potentially explosive areas Zone 0 and Zone 20.
The technology of these Rechner Conductive Sensors is based on the conductivity measuring principle. They are designed as a 2 wire version according to NAMUR DIN 60947-5-6 and are ATEX certified. The sensor has two measuring electrodes. When they are in contact with a conductive liquid a measuring current runs between these two measuring electrodes, which is evaluated by the sensor and a switching signal is given.
The sensors have a 12-turn potentiometer for sensitivity adjustment. This enables an optimum adjustment for the liquid to be detected.
Mechanical Construction
Rechner Conductive Sensors are available with different body sizes, for instance M 10 x 1, M 12 x 1 or 1/4“ NPT.
High quality materials are used for the sensor bodies (the part which is in contact with the product). Rechner Conductive Sensors can be used for applications in the Chemical Industry and Food Industry.
