When measuring shallow liquid levels in specialised industrial environments, standard transmitters fail for two reasons: they are too bulky to fit existing tank entry ports, or their metallurgy cannot survive harsh process fluids.
The Novus WL320 solves both challenges natively. Featuring an ultra-slim 19 mm profile, it slips easily into tight 1″ inspection bungs, narrow vertical guide tubes, and restricted dosing tank openings. Built entirely from 316L Stainless Steel, it delivers elite corrosion resistance where cheaper sensors degrade.
True Barometric Balancing: Shallow liquid columns generate very little pressure. The WL320 uses an internal capillary vent tube to continuously cancel out surface weather shifts, preventing false level readings.
Zero-Friction Deployment: The sleek, smooth body profile prevents the transmitter from catching or hanging up on tight pump couplings, internal tank baffles, or narrow bracket assemblies.
Industry-Standard 2-Wire Loop:Â Features a standard 4-20 mA current output powered entirely by the signal loop (12 to 36 vDC). This allows easy, direct integration into standard PLCs, RTUs, data loggers, and local panel displays.

Accurate hydrostatic measurement relies entirely on balancing the sensor against local atmospheric pressure changes via an internal cable vent tube. To prevent moisture, humidity, and dirt from entering this delicate tube and damaging your transmitter, we highly recommend installing a specialised Vented Compensation Box. This enclosure allows the sensor to breathe freely while utilising a replaceable desiccant to seal out the elements, ensuring long-term system accuracy and preventing premature sensor failure.
Small ABS Compensation Box. Provides a venting point for a depth sensor close to the monitoring location, whilst offering a connection for a longer cable back to monitoring equipment. Enclosure is IP67 rated to prevent water ingress but not air tight.
