Hawk Measurement introduced the Gladiator
Smart Admittance Level Switch,
which detects the level of liquids, slurries,
powders or solids in a tank or vessel. Able
to operate at temperatures up to 450°C,
the unit measures the capacitance or admittance
between a probe and the wall of
the container. As the level of the product
rises to the level of the probe, or drops below
that level, the capacitance measured
at the probe changes. The Gladiator detects
this change and produces an output.
The Gladiator communicates using
Modbus, HART, or Profibus protocols. A
remote amplifier can be positioned up to
500 m away from the unit. The HawkLink
GSM/CDMA communication option allows
a technician to commission, calibrate,
test, or check the output of the unit from
anywhere in the world.
