Conductive level

Point level detection that uses the electrical conductivity of the liquid.

IN ONE SENTENCE

When conductive liquid bridges electrodes, the control circuit detects it.

In normal English

It is simple and effective for water-based conductive liquids but does not work with non-conductive oils and similar media.

Why would I use it?

Use it for high/low level detection in conductive liquids.

THINK OF IT LIKE…

The liquid completes a tiny electrical path between probes.
