Level
Continuous level measurement and
level limit detection

Visionary concepts in the development of new products


produce innovative solutions which meet the challenges
of tomorrow’s world yet can be integrated into the new
automation systems of today.

Since 1953, Endress+Hauser has been manufacturing


level measurement devices for industrial use in fluids
and bulk solids of all kinds. During this time a number
of different methods for level measurement or level
limit detection have been developed and constantly
optimized.

Today you have at your disposal the most up-to-date


measuring systems in a variety of designs with variable
process connections and matching interfaces. All
measuring devices have trade-specific and safety-relevant
certificates and approvals.

Liquid analysis is one of the most quality-relevant


processing variables in the chemical, pharmaceutical,
power, water and food industries. Reliable measuring
points guarantee safe processes and high product quality
for the measurement of pH, conductivity, turbidity and
solids content, oxygen, chlorine, ammonium, nitrate
and phosphate as well as other chemical components
of fluids. Endress+Hauser is the leading specialist
worldwide for analysis and sensing techniques in the
environment and process industries.

Ranging from single measuring points composed of


sensor, process connection and transmitter to fully
automatic measuring systems and application-specific
engineering combined with ultra-modern communication
technology – all the products are available from a
single supplier.

The innovative Memosens technology makes the

This success was only possible in close cooperation


with our customers, research institutes and universities,
which enable us to develop application-specific products
in line with the latest technologies.

Perfect command of all technically sophisticated


production steps coupled with a high degree of
automation, puts Endress+Hauser in a manufacturing
class of its own. For the customer this means extended
sensor operating times, fewer maintenance cycles and

System Integration
With the introduction of communication technologies such as
HART®, PROFIBUS® and FOUNDATION fieldbus™, instruments
have become more intelligent and are now an integral part of the
automation architecture. Nowadays, a fieldbus output is more than
just an interface to the field instrument. It is the carrier of additional
information from the field. Instrument status, maintenance and
diagnostics information from the process contributes to increased
plant availability.

Endress+Hauser ensures that this information is available to the


system environment. We offer comprehensive engineering services
for the integration of field instruments into all relevant automation
systems within the process industry. In addition, we are actively
involved in standardization committees and user organizations.
In this way we ensure that our engineers and our customers are

Plant Asset Management


The total costs arising over the entire life cycle of the plant are
an important factor when making decisions about investment in
production plant. The challenge here is to reduce the running
costs of production plants while increasing their availability. Asset
management systems for plant engineering components are an
ideal way to meet these requirements. Many asset management
systems are used solely for the purpose of configuring and
commissioning field devices, which means that their overall
potential as far as plant operation is concerned frequently remains
untapped. By contrast, FieldCare Plant Asset Management software,
a key component of Endress+Hauser’s “Life Cycle Management –
W@M”, supports you in your plant management by providing a
wide selection of additional modules. User management, device
management, document management, activity and event logging,

some of the functions which will help manage your plant more
efficiently.
