MCP-200 Mini Capacitance Probe for Solids
The BinMaster MCP-200 mini capacitance probe is engineered for accurate point-level detection of bulk solids, powders, and granules in bins, hoppers, and small vessels. Its compact design makes it ideal for installations where space is limited but reliable level indication is critical.
From food processing and pharmaceuticals to plastics and milling, the MCP-200 delivers consistent performance in dry material handling applications.
Key Features of the MCP-200 Solid Level Sensor
- Optimized for powders, pellets, and bulk solids
- Compact design for small bins, hoppers, and feeders
- 0.5” NPT process connection for simple installation
- M12x1 connector with IP66/IP67/IP69 protection
- IO-Link, transistor output, and Bluetooth capability
- Adjustable sensitivity for varying material properties
- LED visual indicators for quick status monitoring
Ideal Applications for MCP-200
- Dry material hoppers and feeders
- Milling and grain processing equipment
- Pharmaceutical powder handling
- Plastics pellets and resin bins
- Food processing with hygienic requirements
Accurate Detection in Tight Spaces
The MCP-200 is designed to perform in confined or hard-to-access areas, providing dependable high- or low-level detection where larger sensors are impractical. Its sensitivity can be adjusted to accommodate different bulk densities and material types.
Smart Integration for Modern Operations
With Bluetooth setup and IO-Link communication, the MCP-200 simplifies configuration and integrates easily with PLCs and control systems. This enables real-time monitoring and improved process automation.
