HLS 305 Slimline Stainless Steel Submersible Level Probe

The SENSVISION HLS 305 is a compact 19 mm diameter stainless steel level probe that uses a piezoresistive stainless steel sensor to convert hydrostatic pressure into a continuous liquid level signal. It is designed for installations with limited space, including wells, open waters, containers and water systems. The probe is suitable for clean water, wastewater and thin fluids, with standard nominal level ranges from 0 to 1 mH₂O up to 0 to 250 mH₂O.

The HLS 305 provides a standard 4 to 20 mA two wire output and operates from a 12 to 36 VDC supply. Its stainless steel 316L wetted housing and diaphragm, IP68 ingress protection and low thermal effect support dependable long term level monitoring in submerged environments. PVC, PUR and FEP cable options are available, with the PUR cable specified with a drinking water certificate. A removable POM C protection cap and available mounting accessories offer added flexibility for installation and servicing.

HLS 305 Stainless Steel Level Sensor Features

  1. Slim 19 mm Probe Diameter For Restricted Spaces
    The compact 19 mm diameter design supports level measurement in narrow wells, boreholes, confined tanks and other space restricted installations.

  2. Continuous Hydrostatic Water Level Measurement
    The piezoresistive stainless steel sensor measures liquid head pressure to provide a continuous 4 to 20 mA signal for level monitoring and control.

  3. Wide Standard Level Range Selection
    Nominal ranges are available from 0 to 1 mH₂O through to 0 to 250 mH₂O, supporting applications from shallow water tanks to deep wells and open water locations.

  4. Low Thermal Effect And Long Term Stability
    The sensing element is designed for low thermal error, excellent linearity and long term stability of up to ±0.1% of span per year.

  5. Stainless Steel Wetted Construction
    The housing is manufactured from stainless steel 1.4404, equivalent to 316L, and the diaphragm from stainless steel 1.4435, equivalent to 316L, for reliable use with compatible water and thin fluid media.

  6. Submersible Protection For Demanding Environments
    IP68 ingress protection, permanent short circuit protection and integrated overvoltage protection on the ground wire support dependable use in submerged and exposed installations.

  7. Cable Options For Water And Industrial Duties
    PVC, PUR and FEP cable options are available with an integrated air tube for atmospheric pressure reference. The black PUR cable is specified with a drinking water certificate.

  8. Simple Two Wire Signal Integration
    The standard 4 to 20 mA two wire signal provides straightforward connection to compatible PLC, remote monitoring and process control systems.
