HLS 880 Detachable Submersible Level Probe

The SENSVISION HLS 880 is a compact submersible level probe designed to measure liquid level using a piezoresistive stainless steel sensor. Its detachable probe head connects to the cable assembly through a connector, enabling the transmitter head to be changed easily to simplify maintenance and stock management. With a 35 mm diameter, PP HT housing and IP68 ingress protection, it is suited to immersed level measurement duties in water, filtered sewage, fuels and oils.

Measurement ranges extend from 0 to 1 mH₂O up to 0 to 100 mH₂O, equivalent to nominal pressure ranges from 0.1 to 10 bar gauge. The HLS 880 is available with a 4 to 20 mA two wire output, or 0 to 20 mA and 0 to 10 V three wire output options. Its stainless steel 316L diaphragm, excellent linearity and low thermal effect support dependable hydrostatic level measurement in water treatment, storage and recycling applications.
