An international standard (IEC 60529) known as the “Ingress Protection Rating” (sometimes known as “IP rating”) rates the degree of security or sealing efficacy in electrical enclosures against the entry of objects, water, dust, or accidental touch.
Ratings for sensor ingress protection, also known as IP ratings, describe how well sensors withstand intrusion by foreign substances like dust and water. These sensors should be able to tolerate a water bath without leaking because they are rated IP67.
The global Ingress resistant sensors market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
The unveiling of two new fuel-level sensors—OMNICOMM LLS 5 and OMNICOMM LLS-Ex 5—by the leading provider of fleet management and fuel management solutions in the world makes OMNICOMM proud.
Fuel characteristics are influenced by factors including oil manufacturing processes, and variations in fuel characteristics can significantly affect the accuracy of fuel measurement.
When moving from winter to summer fuel or refuelling at different stations, this becomes a problem. Gasoline-level calculation mistakes can occur when capacitive sensors utilise a characteristic (permittivity) that differs significantly from the permittivity of fuel used for calibration.
The toughest possible ingress protection grade (IP69K) is on the OMNICOMM LLS 5’s dirt-resistant body, enabling high-pressure hot-water cleaning. The OMNICOMM LLS-Ex 5 is intended for usage in hazardous situations and has the same ingress protection rating.
Both sensors have the potential to correct faults in initial calibration, a problem that affects installed sensors, and maintain a high degree of accuracy throughout their lifespan, reducing the need for maintenance and recalibration. There is a 5-year warranty on the sensors.
According to the Global Sales and Marketing VP at OMNICOMM, “The most recent generation of OMNICOMM fuel-level monitors uses cutting-edge technology to deliver accuracy in all conditions.” This translates into accurate fuel accounting for fleet owners and less expensive vehicle downtime for calibration.
