product description

General information:

The capacitive LCC2 oil meter and switch monitors the level of the oil even in containers with heavily mobile oil surfaces (compressors, engine oil sumps, gearboxes...).

The LCC2 measures the level in relationship to a reference structure at the end of the probe. As a result, levels with oil changes are detected correctly (different viscosity, at different temperatures or in the case of ageing of the oil) without recalibration. An influence on the measurement due to the container wall can be disregarded by means of earthing (shielding on plug).

The programmable filter calculates the running average, and thus reduces the variations in the output signal without affecting the accuracy negatively.

The hysteresis of the switching point can also be adjusted by setting parameters.

The electronics belong to the class of intelligent sensors and thus enable the use of the ECI-3 interface (configurator). The USB-compatible interface enables the adjustment of
numerous parameters for adaptation to the application.

The devices are delivered pre-configured according to customer wishes
