Baumer – CleverLevel LBFS

Level Sensor Capacitive Point

Brand : Baumer

The Baumer CleverLevel® LBFS point level sensors are designed to provide dependable and precise level detection for a wide range of industrial and hygienic applications including liquids, powders, pastes, and bulk solids. These sensors use advanced frequency sweep measurement technology that enables accurate detection even in challenging media conditions and in the presence of foam. The compact stainless steel housing ensures robust performance in harsh process environments, with resistance to sticky and adherent materials, excellent cleanability, and support for a broad range of process connection options.

CleverLevel LBFS sensors are suitable for use in industries such as food and beverage, chemical processing, water and wastewater, and bulk material handling, where reliable point level detection is critical for process monitoring and control. With a repeatability and hysteresis of ±1 mm and adjustable damping settings, these sensors are capable of delivering stable switching behaviour with minimal false trips. They support approvals for hygienic processes and can deliver visual status via integrated LEDs, making them versatile and easy to integrate into automated systems.
