CAPACITIVE SENSORS WITH NO MOVING PARTS
LEVEL MONITORING SENSORS
Wherever pressure switches or temperature sensors are today used as level monitoring elements, this sensor offers the advantage of indicating a critical condition far earlier.
BEDIA level monitoring sensors differ from float-type switches in their compact design and their resistance to vibration.
Since they contain no mechanical moving parts, their function will not be influenced by dirt particles or other influences. No electrical current is sent through the medium via an electrode with BEDIA sensors, an electrolysis of the medium is not possible.
The function of the sensor is based on the capacitive principle. It detects the change in capacitance that occurs when an electrode surrounded by air is immersed into a liquid medium.
The level monitoring sensors are designed for two different media types:
- For electrically conductive liquid media
(water, coolant, water/glycol mixture) - For electrically non-conductive liquid media
(engine oil, fuels, hydraulic oil)
All BEDIA level monitoring sensors may be installed in any position.

LEVEL MONITORING SENSOR
CLS 10 – Special Versions for Heavy Duty Applications
BEDIA CLS 10 stands for special versions of our well-proven CLS 40 series for heavy duty applications.
Currently, the BEDIA CLS 10 series includes a variety of sensors, which are compatible replacement parts for level switches from Cooper Standard and Robert Shaw which are obsolete nowadays – and this in well proven BEDIA quality.
This also includes sensors with 2 complementary CMOS outputs. It should be emphasized that the water sensors with two complementary outputs can be operated with a supply voltage of 4.75 V DC – 32 V DC. Thus, the same sensor can be operated at a supply voltage of nominal voltage 5 V DC and a supply voltage of 7 … 32 V DC.
BEDIA level monitoring sensors are used to monitor the filling levels of liquids. The sensors react when a filling level is exceeded or falls below a limit.
Aqueous mediums like coolants, AdBlue®, fresh water, waste water, bilge water and oil-based liquids like engine oils, hydraulic oils, fuels and brake fluids can be monitored.
Due to their rugged design, high IP protection classes and a working temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C (-40 °F to +257 °F) the BEDIA monitoring sensors are primarily used in the following areas:
- Engines
- Agricultural machinery
- Construction equipment
- Hydraulic units
- Commercial vehicles
