Siemens Level Measurement
Choose experience. Choose Siemens level.
Enormous potential benefits await your operations with Industry 4.0. With unparalleled control and access, you now have complete knowledge of what’s happening in your plant at all times.
No matter what your application is, Siemens provides a complete range of contacting and non-contacting level measurement devices for every application.
Level Technology Available at E.B. Horsman & Son
Point Measurement
Modern point level technology plays a number of critical roles in your operations – either in partnership with other instrumentation or on its own. Backup alarming to material presence detection and/or point level monitoring, protection against running empty, or a cost-effective choice for material detection – Siemens' range of point level devices covers it all. Capacitance, ultrasonic, rotating and vibrating level switches are suitable for virtually all applications from bulk solids to liquids, and everything in between.
Capacitance ◦ Rotary Paddle ◦ Ultrasonic ◦ Vibrating


Continuous Level Measurement
Processes in your facility are constantly changing – so you’d better know what’s where and how much you have, at all times. The answer? Siemens continuous level measurement, featuring a full range of technologies for your exact application: ultrasonic, radar, guided wave radar, capacitance, gravimetric and hydrostatic. With intuitive setup, world-class accuracy and a global network of support. Always monitoring, always precise, always from Siemens.
Radar Level Measurement ◦ Guided Wave Radar Level ◦ Ultrasonic Level Measurement ◦ Capacitance Level Measurement ◦ Gravimetric Level Measurement ◦ Hydrostatic Level Measurement


Interface Level Measurement
Whether it’s water and oil or two wildly different chemicals, some things just don’t mix. Luckily, Siemens interface technology measures level of multiple materials with ease and precision, handles changing pressure and temperature conditions and is unaffected by vapor or condensation.. Capacitance and guided wave radar technology provide results-driven level measurement in all your interface applications, giving you the accuracy and continuous monitoring to keep operations running smoothly throughout the day.
