Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi VNY1 Conductive Level Probe?

The Carlo Gavazzi VNY1 is a robust conductive level probe designed for reliable detection of conductive liquids in industrial tanks, vessels and process systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi VNY level sensor series, it uses the conductive sensing principle for applications such as minimum and maximum liquid level control, filling and emptying control, and overflow monitoring.

The VNY1 incorporates one uninsulated AISI 316 stainless steel electrode with a standard length of 1,000 mm and a diameter of 5 mm. The electrode can be shortened to suit the required sensing level, giving machine builders and process engineers flexibility when adapting the probe to different tank depths and applications.

Designed for industrial installations, the VNY1 features a screw terminal electrical connection, threaded process mounting and an IP67 protection rating. The probe is intended to operate with a compatible level-control amplifier relay, which determines the required filling, emptying, minimum-level or maximum-level control function.

Reliable Conductive Liquid Level Control

Conductive level probes detect the presence of electrically conductive liquids by using the liquid itself to complete a low-level electrical sensing circuit between electrodes or between an electrode and a conductive vessel. When combined with a suitable level-control relay, this provides a straightforward and dependable method of detecting predetermined liquid levels without requiring moving mechanical components.

The Carlo Gavazzi VNY1 can be used for maximum or minimum level detection and for controlling filling or emptying processes, depending on the associated amplifier relay and installation configuration. Its 1,000 mm stainless steel electrode can be shortened to position the switching level precisely for the application.

• Conductive liquid level detection in tanks and vessels.
• Minimum and maximum liquid level monitoring.
• Tank filling and emptying control.
• Overflow and dry-level monitoring systems.
