E32-D82F

Fluid level sensor (contact type)

E32-D82F

High-accuracy detection of 
fluid level in washing tank.

 Uses Teflon (PFA) with excellent chemical and oil 

resistance.

 Capable of detecting high-temperature fluids 

such as sulfuric acid in a wafer washing tank. 

(-40 to +200°C)

 Achieves a high repetition precision of 0.5 mm 

(in pure water).

 Employs a dripping prevention mechanism.

Principle of operation

• In air, the difference between the index

of refraction of the Teflon section and

that of air is larger, and the light is

reflected by the detected surface and

returns to the light receiver.

• In the fluid, there is almost no difference

between the index of refraction of the

Teflon section and that of the fluid, and

the light radiates into the fluid.
