The 2852-DPM Dry Pump Monitor offers pipe monitoring for dry conditions to protect pumps and equipment. Combining the technology of capacitance with unique sensor designs provide non-intrusive monitors for liquid handling systems. The result is a low cost and low maintenance system to determine the presence or absence of product in a pipe or pump.
The Dry Pump Monitor observes a cross sectional area of the pipe and locks in on the capacitance field of the fluid passing through. A change toward a dry condition or a liquid of a different dielectric will upset the capacitive field and initiate an alarm.
The sensing plates are embedded into a wafer flange which provides monitoring without any intrusion into the stream flow.
- Wafer flange sensor for easy installation
- Adjustable time delay and sensitivity to eliminate nuisance alarms from bubbles
- Remote electronics via standard twisted pair
- Sensor available Intrinsically Safe for Hazardous Locations
- PVC wetted parts for corrosive environments
- Capacitance technology responds to all types of liquids
- Non-intrusive sensor design does not restrict flow
- Capacitance technology responds to any liquid type
- No moving parts
- Remote alarm unit mounts safely away from pipe
- No intrusion into stream flow
