Description
IFM KQ1001 Electronic Level Sensor – Continuous, Non‑Contact Level Monitoring
Engineered for process reliability, the IFM KQ1001 electronic level sensor delivers continuous level measurement through non-metallic, non-conductive container walls. Ideal for tanks, sumps, dosing skids, and OEM equipment, it detects liquids, pastes, or bulk media without contacting the process—eliminating mechanical wear, clogging, or media-induced stress. A single compact unit provides three distinct level points for fill/empty control, pump protection, and alarm signaling.
Key Benefits
- Non-contact sensing through plastic or glass walls—no process penetration, no contamination risk
- Three-point level monitoring in one device—simplifies wiring and control logic
- Continuous measurement for stable control of pumps, actuators, and valve systems
- External mounting for fast retrofit and zero downtime during installation
- Robust design for demanding industrial environments
Product Details
- Measurement: Continuous level detection behind non-metallic, non-conductive surfaces
- Sensing concept: Field-based detection for through-wall measurement (no floats or diaphragms)
- Outputs: Supports three discrete level points within one sensor housing
- Installation: External wall mounting on tanks or pipes; no wetted parts
- Typical media: Liquids, viscous fluids, and granulates where contact is undesirable
- Applications: Pump control, overfill/empty protection, machine and skid integration with PLCs
Count on the KQ1001 for reliable level feedback that integrates cleanly with existing automation, improving uptime and control accuracy without complicating mounting or maintenance.
