Explanatory Notes
System description
The compact system NRGT 26- works according to the capacitance measurement principle.
The NRGT 26- is used for signalling different levels in electrically conductive and non-conductive
liquids:
■
Level maintained within the control band defined by two preset limits
The NRGT 26- has a level transmitter integrated in the electrode body which produces a standard
signal of 4 -20 mA. External switchgear is not required.
Function
Designs
The principle of capacitance measurement is applied to determine the level. The electrode rod and
the vessel wall form a capacitor. If the level of the dielectric located between the two capacitor plates
changes, the current which flows through the plates changes proportionally to the level. A dielectric
is defined as an insulating substance, which excludes many liquids such as water. In order to receive
a useful measuring result the measuring rod, which is submerged to varying depths in the liquid,
must be completely insulated. After the calibration of the zero point/measuring range (0 %/00 %)
the level can be read off from a remote display unit. The level measuring range can be changed
during operation.
