Rechner Capacitive Sensors

Rechner Electronics and Rechner Automation are excited to bring you new capacitive sensor technologies at trade shows in 2019. Analog capacitive sensors can give the user more information than traditional ON/OFF capacitive sensors. Our new LevelMaster with an analog output can be programmed to detect a wide range of different recipes without having to readjust your sensor. This sensor can even detect the presence of a solid suspended in a conductive liquid. Visit our booth for a demonstration of our new technologies.

The LevelMaster series of sensor are the ideal solution for conductive liquids and pastes. These sensor can ignore a large build up of conductive products like ketchup, mayonnaise, and brines. These sensors use EasyTeach technology and can be programmed for new materials in as little as 4 seconds. Simply immerse the sensor in the product you wish to detect, connect the teach wire to positive voltage until the LED flashes, and disconnect the teach wire to initialize the self-teaching function. For products that create foam, like beers, the sensor can detect the difference between the product itself and the foam on top of the product. The Level Master Sensor with hygienic design mounting adapters. In this video we demonstrate the sensor being programmed with 5 different materials. The materials include ketchup, mayonnaise, honey, beer, and beer foam. The sensor ignores massive buildup of material on the sensing area. The setup procedure is fast, easy, and accurate. ...

The KFI-series iLevel capacitive probe is based on Rechner Sensor 3-electrode technology but with some new features. These include integrated electronics in the body of the probe and programmable switching points that can be set anywhere on the active area of the sensor. This means the iLevel has the same great ability to ignore massive build-up of product but in a more compact and customizable sensor. It even keeps the ability to operate at elevated temperatures (392°F/ 200°C). iLevel sensor with metal mounting head Whether you are detecting liquids or solids, the iLevel sensor is ideal for replacing old mechanical switches whose moving parts are prone to wear, to seizing, and to material build-up in the seals and bearings. The iLevel sensor has no moving parts, has no place for material to ingress, and is immune to build up of sticky viscous materials like hot melt glue, chocolate sauce, or molasses. Discrete versions of the new KFI – iLevel probes come with 1 or 2 pro...
