Loss of Head Indicator (capacitance based)

For measuring difference in level

Loss of Head (LoH) is measured by monitoring the Level in High Pressure and low pressure side of the gravity filter / Traveling water screen and showing the difference in these two levels. The instrument is based on the field proven RF capacitance technology and can be used for any differential level measurement using suitable probes.

The RF Capacitance Level Switch works on the field proven RF Technology. A RF signal is applied to the probe and the tank (reference). A change in the level results in a change in the admittance between the probe and the tank. This change is detected by the electronics and an alarm generated.
