Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi VNI3 Level Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi VNI3 is a robust conductive level probe designed for reliable level detection of electrically conductive liquids in tanks, vessels and industrial process systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi VN / VNI level sensor range, it features three long stainless steel electrodes for multi-point liquid level monitoring when connected to compatible level-control electronics.

The VNI3 incorporates three 1,000 mm AISI 316 stainless steel electrodes, each measuring 5 mm in diameter. Unlike the uninsulated VN version, the VNI configuration features polyethylene electrode insulation, providing an insulated probe arrangement for suitable conductive-liquid applications.

With a 2 m PVC cable, 1½-inch pipe thread, Nylon 6 construction and IP67 protection, the VNI3 is engineered for dependable industrial installation. It supports operating temperatures from 0 to +90 °C, making it suitable for a broad range of tank level, pump control and process-monitoring duties.

Key Advantages

  • Three-electrode conductive level probe for multi-point liquid level detection.
  • Durable AISI 316 stainless steel electrodes.
  • Each electrode provides a generous 1,000 mm probe length.
  • Polyethylene-insulated electrodes distinguish the VNI configuration.
  • Integrated 2 m PVC cable simplifies connection to compatible level-control equipment.
  • IP67 protection supports dependable use in industrial environments.

  • CE marked.

Reliable Conductive Level Monitoring for Industrial Processes

Conductive level probes detect electrically conductive liquids through electrodes positioned at predetermined levels within a tank or vessel. When liquid reaches the relevant electrodes, a compatible external level controller detects the conductive path and can use this information for level indication, pump control, filling, draining or alarm functions.

The Carlo Gavazzi VNI3 provides three insulated AISI 316 stainless steel electrodes, allowing several level points to be monitored from one probe assembly. Its IP67 construction, 1½-inch process connection and 2 m PVC cable make it a practical solution for integrating conductive level monitoring into industrial automation and process-control systems.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial tank and vessel level monitoring.
  • Conductive liquid detection.
  • High- and low-level alarm systems.
  • Pump start and stop control.
  • Automatic tank filling and emptying systems.
  • Water treatment and process equipment.
  • Industrial automation and process-control installations.
