VA-234-SEP

Combined continuous level monitoring and multi-point process control in a single device

CAPTRON

External amplifier with analog level measurement and three programmable switching points

The VA-234-SEP Capacitive Level Controller with Analog Output and 3 Switching Outputs combines continuous level measurement with flexible multi-point switching functionality. Designed for use with CAPTRON external probes, the system enables precise process monitoring and control across a wide range of industrial applications.

The amplifier provides one continuous analog output and three independently programmable switching points. Each switching point can be configured as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) and positioned freely along the probe length to match specific process requirements.

The measured level value can be transmitted as a current or voltage signal, while integrated cable-break protection increases operational reliability. A built-in LED bar display provides a clear visual indication of the current fill level directly on the amplifier housing.

The VA-234-SEP is ideal for applications requiring continuous level measurement together with multiple alarm, control or process switching functions.
