HLS 320 Detachable Stainless Steel Submersible Level Probe

The SENSVISION HLS 320 is a 35 mm diameter stainless steel submersible probe designed for continuous hydrostatic level measurement in water, filtered sewage and compatible thin liquids. Its stainless steel 316L housing and diaphragm provide robust media contact surfaces, while available level ranges from 0 to 1 mH₂O through to 0 to 250 mH₂O support shallow tanks, wells, open waters and deeper storage installations. Standard accuracy reaches up to ±0.35% of span for nominal pressures from 0.4 bar, with an optional accuracy of up to ±0.25% of span.

A key feature of the HLS 320 is its detachable transmitter head and cable assembly. The two sections connect through a five pin connector, allowing the sensor section to be changed without replacing the complete cable assembly. This can simplify maintenance and stock management across sites with multiple probes. The standard 4 to 20 mA two wire signal supports integration with compatible control and monitoring equipment, while optional intrinsic safety and SIL 2 versions are available for specified hazardous area and safety related applications.

HLS 320 Detachable Stainless Steel Level Probe Features

  1. Detachable Sensor And Cable Construction
    The transmitter head is connected to the cable assembly through a five pin connector, allowing the sensor section to be replaced separately for easier servicing and stock management.

  2. Continuous Hydrostatic Liquid Level Measurement
    The probe measures the pressure generated by the liquid column and converts it into a continuous analogue signal for level monitoring and process control.

  3. Broad Level Range Availability
    Nominal ranges extend from 0 to 1 mH₂O up to 0 to 250 mH₂O, supporting applications from shallow containers to deep wells and open water monitoring.

  4. Accurate And Stable Measurement Performance
    Standard accuracy is up to ±0.35% of span for ranges from 0.4 bar, with an optional accuracy of up to ±0.25% of span. Long term stability is up to ±0.1% of span per year.

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

  6. Signal Options For Control System Integration
    A 4 to 20 mA two wire output is standard. Additional output configurations can be selected according to the ordering options and application requirements.

  7. Hazardous Area And Functional Safety Versions
    An intrinsically safe Ex ia version is available for gas and dust hazardous areas. A SIL 2 version is also available for applications designed according to IEC 61508 and IEC 61511.

  8. Cable, Seal And Mounting Flexibility
    PVC, PUR and FEP cable options are available alongside FKM and EPDM seals. Compatible mounting flanges, cable glands, terminal clamps and process displays support different installation arrangements.

HLS 320 Applications For Water And Filtered Sewage Level Measurement

The HLS 320 is suited to continuous level measurement where a durable submerged probe and serviceable detachable construction are required. Its stainless steel wetted parts, broad range availability and optional safety configurations make it appropriate for municipal water infrastructure, environmental monitoring and compatible industrial liquid storage.
