Why choose the EM410-RDL sensor ?

The EM410-RDL sensor uses high-quality materials, including PVDF (Polyvinylidene fluoride), which offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, wear, and high durability. These features enable it to operate optimally even in industrial settings where exposure to chemicals and temperature variations is common. The advantage of this sensor is its small detection angle (8°), allowing it to accurately measure fluid levels in confined spaces.

Moreover, the sensor is fully integrated into the IoT ecosystem thanks to its compatibility with the LoRaWAN® protocol. This means you can effortlessly incorporate it into various existing systems, facilitating data management and remote control. Whether you work in an environment that requires sophisticated IoT infrastructure or are venturing into IoT integration for the first time, this sensor provides the flexibility needed to adapt to your specific needs.

Why PVDF ?

PVDF, or polyvinylidene fluoride, is often highlighted for its exceptional resistance to corrosion due to several specific reasons that set it apart from other plastics like ABS or PU.

• Chemical Structure : PVDF is a fluoropolymer, meaning it contains fluorine atoms in its molecular structure. These carbon-fluorine bonds are extremely stable and resistant to chemical attacks, making PVDF particularly resistant to many acids, bases, and solvents.

• Chemical Inertness : Fluorine is highly electronegative and forms a very strong bond with carbon, minimizing the material's reactivity with other chemical substances. This makes it almost inert, which is ideal for applications where corrosion resistance is crucial.

• Temperature and Stability : PVDF maintains its mechanical and chemical properties over a wide range of temperatures, compared to some other plastics that can degrade more easily under heat or chemical exposure.

• Specific Applications : Thanks to its properties, PVDF is often used in highly corrosive environments, such as in chemical, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries, where other plastics like ABS or PU might not perform as well.
