About Baumer Level Measurement
"The right solution for every job"When looking for the right measuring technology and the right product we basically sub-divide measuring levels into three types of tasks:
- Is it continuous measurement or knowing when a limit is reached
- Measuring solids or liquids
- Contact-free measurement or in contact with the product
In addition the geometric surroundings and other aspects such as foaming or turbulence, as well as the chemical/physical properties need to be known.
Add in the requirements on what can be installed, cleaning, whether hygiene standards apply (3A) and the degree of precision required. Thanks to our wide-ranging technology skills we can offer you the right solution every time:

Versatile Output and Mounting OptionsBaumer Level Measurement Sensors are engineered with flexibility in mind, offering multiple output types, such as PNP/NPN, 4-20 mA analog signals, or relay switching. The mounting options-threaded, flanged, or clamp-on-allow easy integration into a variety of industrial systems, ensuring a secure and reliable fit regardless of the process environment.
Enhanced Durability for Challenging EnvironmentsWith ingress protection ratings of IP67 or IP68 and robust construction using materials like stainless steel and PBT, Baumer sensors perform reliably even in harsh conditions. They withstand process pressures up to 50 bar and wide temperature ranges, making them suitable for demanding liquid, paste, and solid applications.
Accurate and Fast Level DetectionUtilizing capacitive or conductive technology and microprocessor-based control, Baumer sensors deliver precise measurements with a response time of less than 100 ms. Optional LED indicators or digital displays provide clear visual feedback, and adjustable cable lengths ensure tailored installation for every project.
FAQ's of Baumer Level Measurement:
Q: How do Baumer Level Measurement Sensors function across different media?
A: Baumer sensors employ capacitive or conductive detection principles, enabling accurate measurement of levels in liquids, pastes, viscous substances, and even solids. Their advanced microprocessor-based controls adjust automatically to the properties of the sensing medium.
Q: What output options are available, and how do I select the right one?
A: The sensors offer PNP/NPN switching, 4-20mA analog signals, or relay switch outputs. Select the output based on your control system's input requirements; for instance, analog output suits continuous monitoring, while switch outputs are ideal for threshold detection.
Q: When should I use a threaded versus a flanged or clamp-on mounting?
A: Threaded mounting is commonly used for direct process integration in tanks or pipelines. Flanged and clamp-on options are better for installations requiring easy removal or where standard threads are not available. The choice depends on your application's construction and maintenance needs.
Q: Where can these sensors be installed safely given their environmental ratings?
A: With IP67/IP68 ingress protection and the ability to handle temperatures from -40C to +120C (or up to 200C for specific versions) and pressures up to 50 bar, these sensors are suitable for both indoor and outdoor industrial environments-including harsh, wet, or dusty locations.
Q: What are the benefits of optional LED indication or digital display for these sensors?
A: LED indicators or digital displays provide real-time visual feedback regarding the sensor's status and measured levels. This enables operators to perform quick checks without connecting to external monitoring equipment, reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency.
Q: Can the cable length be adjusted for different installations?
A: Yes, Baumer sensors come with a standard 2-meter cable, which can be extended according to installation requirements. This flexibility ensures a neat and practical setup, even in larger or more complex machinery layouts.
Q: How does Baumer ensure sensor durability in industrial settings?
A: Baumer uses high-grade materials like stainless steel for exteriors, industrial-grade insulation such as PTFE or PUR, and ensures protection against humidity, high temperature, and pressure. This robust construction guarantees reliable operation in demanding industrial processes.
