SICK LFV200 Series Sensor Level Sensor, Threaded, Housing 316L Stainless Steel, Polyetherimide

SICK LFV200 Series Level Sensor, 70 °C Maximum Operating Temperature, 64 Bar Maximum Pressure - LFV200-XXSGBIPM

This level sensor is a Compact IO-Link device for detecting fluid levels in automated processes. It is built for threaded installation and constructed from a combination of food-grade 316L stainless steel and a chemically resistant polyetherimide material, enabling use where corrosion resistance and material compatibility are required. The unit operates across a wide ambient temperature range and is suited to control and monitoring systems that communicate via IO-Link.

Features and Benefits:

• IO-Link Interface supports digital communication with control systems
  Maximum operating temperature 70°C enabling warm-process monitoring
  Minimum operating temperature -40°C for cold-environment performance
  Maximum pressure rating 64 bar allowing use under high system pressures
  Maximum current draw 250mA keeping power requirements modest
  Maximum supply voltage 30V providing compatibility with common DC supplies

Applications

• Suitable for level monitoring in automated filling systems
  Ideal for use in food-processing environments requiring 316L wetted parts
  Used for liquid level detection in high-pressure hydraulic circuits
  Can be used with IoT-ready PLCs requiring IO-Link sensors
  Used for chemical handling where PEI offers resistance to aggressive media

What mounting method is required for installation?

It is designed for threaded mounting allowing secure integration into process ports and tank fittings.

Which materials are in contact with the medium and why are they chosen?

Wetted components include 316L stainless steel for compatibility with food applications and polyetherimide for chemical resistance.

How does the electrical Interface affect system integration?

The IO-Link connection enables parameter access and digital data exchange with compatible automation controllers.

What environmental extremes can it tolerate during operation?

It can operate down to -40°C and up to 70°C while maintaining functional integrity.

What pressure conditions can it withstand in process applications?

It is rated to withstand system pressures up to 64 bar for use in demanding pressure scenarios.
