COMPACT PRO Capacitance
Probes 
Compact Probe Works Where Proximity
Switches Fail
The Compact Pro is a compact capacitance probe for reliable
level measurement and plugged chute detection for liquid,
powder, granular, and pelleted materials. This probe is
designed for tight spaces where proximity switches will
not work and is appropriate for use in tanks, bins, silos,
chutes, conveyors, pipes and load out hoppers. Operation
is independent of bin wall and it can be used with either
metal or non-metallic vessels. It features four levels of
static discharge protection, which is important for pneumatically
conveyed materials.
Compact Pro is simple to set up and requires virtually
no maintenance. Its compact design makes it easy to install
and a simple "one-time" calibration procedure
with sensitivity up to less than one Picofared ensures fast
set up. It requires no routine preventive maintenance and
its operation unaffected by temperature changes, eliminating
the need for recalibration. In addition, its special Pro
Shield technology ignores material buildup that can cause
proximity switches to fail. A visual LED on the housing
indicates sensor status at-a-glance, showing the presence
or absence of material.
