Application
The CLS54 conductivity sensor is specifically designed for use in hygienic applications
in the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries and in biotechnology. Thanks to
its hygiene certificates and its food-safe, virgin PEEK design without any joints or
crevices, it meets the strict demands of these industries. The CLS54 is ideal for:
- Phase separation of product/water and product/product mixtures in pipe systems
- Control of cleaning in place (CIP) processes in the return line
- Concentration control in the remaking of CIP cleaning agents
- Product monitoring in pipes, bottling plants and quality assurance
- Leakage monitoring
in the following industries:
- Dairies
- Breweries
- Beverages (water, juices, soft drinks)
- Pharmaceuticals and biotechnology
Use with the Liquiline CM42 and Liquisys CLM223/253 transmitters; integral part of
the Smartec CLD134 measuring system.
Your benefits

- Has all the process connections commonly used in the hygiene sector
- Durable thanks to fully encapsulated, sealless design
- Fast measurement with temperature response time t 90 under 26 s, ensuring safe and efficient phase separation
- Insensitive to electrode contamination and polarization thanks to inductive measuring principle
- Explosion protection
Measuring principle
An oscillator (1) generates an alternating magnetic field in the primary coil (5), which induces a
current flow (4) in the medium. The strength of the current depends on the conductivity and thus on
the ion concentration in the medium. The current flow in the medium, in turn, generates a magnetic
field in the secondary coil (3). The resulting induced current is measured by the receiver (2) and used
to determine the conductivity.
