MultiCap Probe
The MultiCap Probe contains an FEC 12 electronic insert that functions
as a transmitter for capacitance measurement. Capacitance
measurement functions:
S The MultiCap Probe and vessel form a capacitor.
S Depending on the level, the space between these capacitor plates
is filled either with air (empty vessel) or an unspecified quantity of
material.
S The initial capacitance for the empty vessel is low, but increases
proportionally to the amount of material covering the MultiCap
Probe.
NOTE: The MultiCap Probe is shipped according to the specifications
shown in Figure 5. The rod may be cut to a shorter length if needed.
