Vega Capacitive Level Switch VEGACAP 98 Series, Polypropylene Housing, Horizontal & Vertical Mount, Zone 10 CAP98XPXD

Vega CAP98XPXD from the VEGACAP 98 Series is a capacitive level switch designed for precise and reliable detection of maximum and minimum levels in vessels containing liquids, light solids, and adhesive materials. Housed in durable polypropylene and suitable for horizontal or vertical mounting, this switch is certified for Zone 10 hazardous areas, making it ideal for challenging industrial environments.

The device features a relay (DPDT) output with an effective measuring range up to 2 meters, ensuring accurate detection points even in presence of strong buildup. Its robust mechanical construction and polypropylene probe guarantee a long service life with low maintenance requirements.

Operating across a supply voltage range of 20VAC to 250VAC and 20VDC to 72VDC, the switch supports unpressurized operation with a maximum pressure tolerance of 25 bar and can function safely within temperatures from -30°C to 80°C. Its process fitting options include thread sizes starting from G1½ and 1½ NPT, enhancing installation versatility.

Additional features include dual detection modes (A for maximum/overfill protection, B for minimum/dry running protection), LED indication of switching modes, and a rapid integration time of 0.5 seconds. The switch comes with a 2-meter cable and a PG 13.5 cable entry. A separate mounting kit comprises a 2mm stainless steel angle bracket and polypropylene locknut (sold separately), easing setup.

This capacitive level switch is widely used for level detection in industrial sectors involving adhesives, conductive liquids, and bulk solids where precise overfill and dry running protections are required. Its IP66 rating ensures resistance against dust and water ingress, suitable for harsh operational environments.

The device offers a relay DPDT output with an effective sensing range of up to 2 meters. Suitable for horizontal and vertical mounting to fit varied vessel configurations. Constructed with robust polypropylene ensuring resistance to adhesives and conductive materials.
