Level indicator-sensors RIS 121

RIS 121 level indicator sensors are designed for continuous monitoring of the level of liquid and solid (bulk) media, as well as signaling the achievement of the maximum levels of the controlled medium at two specified points.

 

Sensors – indicators of the level of RIS 121 meet the requirements of the Rules of the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping and the Russian River Register, have versions for use at nuclear power facilities.

 

Sensors-indicators belong to the type of capacitive devices. The principle of operation is based on the dependence of the electrical capacitance of the sensor element on the level of the controlled environment.

more than ± 1.5 % of the control range
Deviation of the response level from the nominal value
not more than ± 5
