FAQ

Based on its appearance, the sensor is fitted with a sanitary tri-clamp style connection, which is common in hygienic applications like food processing and pharmaceuticals. Please verify the dimensions for your specific application.

Yes, capacitance level sensors like the MST9500 are generally versatile and can be calibrated to detect the level of both conductive (e.g., water-based liquids) and non-conductive (e.g., oils, plastics) media.

The probe appears to be made of stainless steel. In the images, the probe does not appear to have a specific coating (like PFA or Teflon), making it suitable for a wide range of non-corrosive materials. Always check chemical compatibility with your process media.
