Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi VNI2 Conductive Level Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi VNI2 is a robust conductive level sensor with two insulated stainless steel electrodes designed for reliable liquid level detection and control in tanks, reservoirs and industrial process systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi VN series, it provides two sensing electrodes in a single probe assembly for applications requiring multiple liquid level detection points.
The VNI2 is equipped with 2 × 1 m stainless steel electrodes with insulation along their length. Conductive sensing technology allows the probe to detect electrically conductive liquids when used with a compatible Carlo Gavazzi level control relay, providing a straightforward solution for monitoring and controlling liquid levels without moving mechanical parts.
The two-electrode arrangement makes the VNI2 particularly useful for applications requiring minimum and maximum level detection within the same vessel. The electrode lengths can be adapted during installation to establish the required switching levels, making the probe suitable for automatic filling, draining, pump control and liquid level alarm systems.

Reliable Two-Level Detection for Industrial Processes
Conductive level sensing uses the electrical conductivity of the process liquid to determine when it reaches a defined electrode position. When connected to a compatible level controller, the Carlo Gavazzi VNI2 can provide two detection points that can be used to establish minimum and maximum liquid levels within a tank or vessel.
This arrangement is particularly useful for automatic pump and valve control. One electrode can establish the lower switching level while the second establishes the upper level, allowing a control system to maintain liquid within the required operating range. With no floats or other moving sensing parts, conductive probes offer a simple and effective solution for compatible water-based and conductive process liquids.
