Switch for level detection and dry-run protection

• Optimised sensor geometry, easy to clean
• Measures products with dielectric constant > 1.5
• Maintenance-free
• Small and compact version OPTISWITCH 6600
• 3A, EHEDG,FDA,EC 1935/2004 + EC 2023/2006

The OPTISWITCH 6500 and OPTISWITCH 6600 are hygienic level switches for level detection and dry-run protection for liquids and solids. Through its small and optimal sensor shape, the device is easy to clean and the risk of clogging of sticky products is minimised.

The device measures liquids such as water and beer and even viscous and sticky products such as honey or toothpaste. Dry medias (sugar or flour) can be also measured. The measurement is precise and not affected by the mounting position. Coating of the sensor or condensate are not detected. The OPTISWITCH 6500 and OPTISWITCH 6600 are resistent against CIP and SIP agents.

Hygienic installation is possible with the comprehensive range of accessories. Please refer to the specific data sheet "Accessories".
