Baumer’s innovative solutions are highly regarded by both users and professionals in the trade magazine “messtec drives Automation” (Wiley). Among these, the smart level sensor CombiLevel PLP70 secured first place in the voting for the AutomationsBest Award under the category Best Product. The product manager, Julian Budde, received the award at SPS 2023 in Nuremberg.

The standout feature of the potentiometric level sensor CombiLevel PLP70 is its exceptional ability to operate with minimal conductivity required for continuous level measurement—greater than 5 microsiemens/cm—which remains effective even when handling substances like distilled water. The highly accurate and reliable measurements help optimize processes, such as precisely monitoring levels in process tanks or storage systems.

Highly Flexible and Fast: Ideal for Filling Systems

Product manager Julian Budde explains, “The CombiLevel PLP70 is especially beneficial in applications with high variety of media or frequent changes. Thanks to its media-independent measuring principle, it delivers the highest accuracy and repeatability even in challenging situations.”

This sensor excels in processes involving difficult-to-measure substances—such as pasty, sticky, or foamy liquids with low conductivity. With a response time under 100 milliseconds, the CombiLevel PLP70 is tailored for highly dynamic environments where rapid level changes occur frequently in filling systems. The precision and speed of its measurements translate directly into optimized raw material utilization.

Areas of Application

The CombiLevel PLP70 finds use across various sectors:

  • Industrial applications (process tanks, cleaning systems, filter systems, water treatment plants, agricultural machinery)
  • Hygienic applications (filling systems, storage and buffer tanks, process tanks, filter systems, cleaning systems)
