Pointek CLS200/300
Pointek CLS200/300 Digital
Pointek CLS200/300 is a versatile capacitance switch, ideal for level detection of
interfaces, solids, liquids, slurries, and foam, and for simple pump control. The switch
responds to the presence of any material with a relative dielectric constant of 1.5 or more
by detecting a change in capacitance, which is registered as a change in oscillating
frequency.
The switch can be set to detect before contact or on contact with the probe. The design
of the CLS200 Digital allows the instrument to operate independently of the tank wall or
pipe, so it does not require an external reference electrode for level detection in a non-
conductive vessel such as concrete or plastic1. The CLS300 Digital requires a connection
to earth/ground for effective capacitance measurement.
The power supply is galvanically isolated and can accept voltages in the range 12 to
30 V DC (12 to 24 V DC for Intrinsically Safe (IS) models), depending on the application.
The materials used in the probe construction provide a high level of chemical resistance,
and an excellent temperature rating on the process wetted portion of the probe: up to
125 °C (257 °F) for the CLS200 and 400 °C (752 °F) for the CLS300.
Notes:
• Pointek CLS200/300 is available in two models: the standard model, and the digital
model with integral local display. For information on the CLS200/300 Standard,
please see manual 7ML19985JH02.
• Pointek CLS200/300 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this instruction
manual, otherwise protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
• This product is intended for use in industrial areas. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area may cause interference to several frequency based
communications.

Pointek CLS200/300
Modular design and construction provide a wide choice of configurations, including rod,
cable, and sanitary versions. Pointek CLS200/300 Digital can be used either:
• as a standalone unit, programmed locally using the local user interface, or
• installed as part of a network, programmed remotely using SIMATIC PDM on a
Profibus PA network (or locally using the Local User Interface).
Applications
Level Detection
Pointek CLS200/300 is designed for level detection and simple pump control in a variety of
applications:
• Liquids, solids (powder and granules), slurries, interface detection (for example, oil/
water), and foam detection
• Foods and pharmaceuticals
• Chemical and petrochemical
• High pressure and temperature
Alarm signalling
The solid-state switch can be set to react either to a diagnosed fault in the instrument, or
to a change in the process level.
Fault Signalling
Pointek CLS200/300 can actively report information on its own status via PROFIBUS PA
when used as part of a network, or by means of a pre-defined output status at the solid
state switch and on the Local User Interface (LUI).
Features
• Potted construction protects components from shock, vibration, humidity, and/or
condensation
• High chemical resistance on probes
• Level detection independent of tank wall/pipe (CLS200 only)1
• Freely programmable set up covers wide range of applications/materials
• Integrated Local User Interface (LUI) for ease of use
• Rigid and cable versions available
• Communication via PROFIBUS PA (profile version 3.0, Class B)
• Intrinsically Safe (IS) transmitter design for hazardous areas (requires external
barrier or IS power supply)
• Patented Active Shield minimizes the effect of product build-up at the sensor
mounting point (CLS300 only)

System Implementation
Pointek CLS200/300 supports PROFIBUS communication protocol, and SIMATIC PDM
software.
Programming
Pointek CLS200/300 carries out its level measurement function according to the set of
built-in parameters. You can make parameter changes locally via the local user interface,
or from a remote location via a PC using SIMATIC PDM software.

1. Or 1.4404 material.
Note: The use of approved watertight conduit hubs/glands is required for Type 4 /
NEMA 4, Type 6 / NEMA 6, IP68 (outdoor applications). For CE requirements the use
of EMC rated cable entries is required for all CLS200 devices.
