The impedance type interface level transmitter is optimally suitable for interface level measurement for applications in which one or the other, or both of the overlying and underlying fluid are conducting fluids. In terms of electrical property, every material is roughly classified into the insulating material such as the oil, the demineralized water synthetic resin, etc., the electrically good conductor such as the metals, and the intermediate conductor which is the product between the insulating material and the electrically good conductor. The intermediate conductor is the electrolytic solution including the molten salt, the salt, the acid, the aqueous solution of alkali, etc. in addition to the carbon powder. The intermediate conductor cannot be often measured with the electrical capacitance instrument or the differential measuring instrument in the past because it causes the adhesion, the wetting, and the crystallization to the detector (electrode). Ditech's IP model is exclusively designed for such intermediate conductor as well as electrically good conductor.
principles
You may consider that the above operation is that of the potentiometer for the fluid as if the portion filled with the underlying fluid is short-circuited by the liquid junction after being replaced by the parallel resistance while the series resistance lines up limitlessly when there is only overlying fluid in the tank.
Install in the tank the element having the impedance ideal for the fluid. The element is short-circuited by the underlying fluid to the level filled, and the voltage generated by sending constant current into the element is in inverse proportion to the level. (Install the liquid junction electrode when the container is GL, FRP, and so on). Convert it into the unified signal, and transmit the level signal.
-
Measures highly conductive and adhesive fluids with high accuracy.
(Suitable for fluids that cannot be measured with a differential-pressure or capacitive system.) -
Immune to the effects of pressure or specific gravity.
-
Offers the highest level of reliability due to a simple operating principle and structure.
-
Detector and transducer can be separately installed without effecting the device's operating performance.
-
Assures a highly reliable and stable detection even for objects having high permittivity and conductivity.
-
Possible to install at limited space.
-
Lightning arrestor (option) protects the device from lightning-induced surges.

Model IP-QBS-IF
(Non-explosion-proof type)
＜Separated transducer type＞
This model is composed of detector unit, transducer and special cable.
Model IP-NSB-IF
(Intrinsically safe construction / i3nG5)
＜Totally separated detector unit type＞
This model is composed of detector unit, transducer, relay power source and special cable that is 4 core control cable. As the transducer is designed to be installed in a dangerous area, the special cable can be made short enough to minimize picked-up noises, thus permitting a stable performance to be obtainable. As to performance, this model has the same characteristics as those of Model IP-QBS-IF.
