The Krohne Optiswitch 6700 capacitance level switch offers the same point-level detection of liquids and solids as its previous models, now with I0-Link communication. Providing high- and low-level detection, the Optiswitch 6700 offers overfill and dry-level protection.

The Optiswitch 6700’s double output can be individually programmed to monitor different processes or media, making it a suitable solution for adhesives and difficult products, as detection is not affected by product buildup, foam, or condensation. The switch offers maintenance-free function with an optimal sensor shape for cleaning.

It has the ability to monitor CIP and SIP cleaning processes, media separation, clogged or blocked pipes, and moisture levels, and offers dry run protection.

The Optiswitch 6700 is customizable, offering a range of available hygienic adapters, the potential to add a sliding connection for tanks with thicker walls and insulation, and an alternate sensor version complete with reverse-threaded G¾ connection, enabling low-level detection from the top of a tank.
