Smart solution with frequency sweep technology – A level switch for all media

Fill levels must be recognized in countless storage, buffer and holding tanks in the process industry, food industry, and even in wind power plants or other fields. The level switches used are normally as different as the various media being monitored. With the CleverLevel LBFS/LFFS switch, Baumer has developed a true all-rounder that uses frequency sweep technology. This method capitalizes on the fact that every material, regardless of its consistency, has a dielectric constant specific to that medium. This makes the new level switch suitable for practically all media, including liquids, granulates and even electrostatic media. At the same time, it is unaffected by adhesive substances or foams that may lead to switching errors with other technologies. Furthermore, it can distinguish between different media. This makes the CleverLevel more than merely a replacement for the traditional vibrating fork used in level control. Configuration is possible using Teach-in. It is more convenient with Flex Programmer software, which enables visualization at the same time. The displayed information can be communicated to a higher-level controller if required and interpreted there in accordance with the operation phase.

Paving the way through London’s soft core Conveyor drives for rapid transit tunnel construction in central London

The metropolis London is currently adding a new East-West rapid transit connection with a length of more than 100 km to its much-frequented public transport network. For this major project, 21 km of new tunnels are being bored in the city center alone. The soil here mainly consists of soft clay with a sticky consistency that makes the transport of excavated material especially challenging. H+E Logistik and NORD DRIVESYSTEMS, two German industry specialists, are supplying suitable conveying technology including geared motors.
