Pointek CLS200 (standard version) is a versatile inverse fre- falling material.
quency shift capacitance level and material detection switch
with optional rod/cable choices and configurable output.
CLS200 is ideal for detection of liquids, solids, slurries, foam,
and interfaces and has the ability to tune out buildup on the
probe.

■ Benefits
• Potted construction protects signal circuit from shock,
vibration, humidity, and/or condensation
• High chemical resistance
Avoid areas where material build up occurs.
• Level detection independent of tank or pipe earth reference
• Insensitive to product buildup due to high frequency
oscillation
• 3 LED indicators for sensor status, output status, and power
• Suitable for API 2350

■ Application
Pointek CLS200 standard version has 3 LED indicators with
basic relay and solid-state switch alarms. Universal switch for
solids/liquids and interface.
The power supply is galvanically isolated and accepts a wide
range of voltages (12 to 250 V AC/DC). When used with thermal
isolator, the stainless steel and PPS (PVDF optional) materials
used in the probe construction provide a temperature rating up
to 125 °C (257 °F) on the process wetted portion of the probe.
The switch responds to any material with a dielectric constant of
1.5 or more by detecting a change in oscillating frequency, and
it can be set to detect before contact or on contact with the Install probe at least 50 (2) from tank wall.
probe. The CLS200 operates independently of the tank wall or
pipe so it does not require an external reference electrode for Pointek CLS200 installation, dimensions in mm (inch)
level detection in a non-conductive vessel such as concrete or
plastic (EMC regulations applicable in some regions).
• Key Applications: liquids, slurries, powders, granules,
pressurized applications, hazardous areas
