Optical Level Sensors

April 10, 2025

EGE-Elektronik has revised its intrinsically safe optical level sensors for liquids with ATEX/IECEx approval for use in Zone 0 and is launching the new, improved UF2 series. Featuring a glass tip, these new level sensors are suitable for detecting kerosene or gasoline. The case is made of 1.4571 stainless steel. This series features process interfaces such as G-thread, NPT thread, cutting ring fitting, triclamp or flange. Depending on the type, the sensor’s electrical connection is made via M12 connector, cable or clamping space. The level sensors are intended for operation with an IKMb 123 Ex series evaluation device for DIN rail mounting, which provides a relay/changeover output and can be operated at 24V DC or 115V AC or 230V AC, depending on the model.
