Transmitter provides non-contact level measurement

Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Apr 5, 2006

Combining microprocessor-based electronics with ultrasonic technology, non-contact level transmitter is suitable for corrosive coating or waste liquids.

The Flowline Minime level transmitter, available from the firm's UK distributor Chem Resist in Dewsbury, provides non-contact level measurement up to 3m in a standard 2.54cm mount.

Optional 5.1cm mount versions are available with a measurement span up to 7.6 or 12.2m.

Accuracy is +/-0.15% of span while resolution is 3mm.

Signal output is 4-20mA.

Combining microprocessor-based electronics with ultrasonic technology, the series is suitable for corrosive coating or waste liquids.

The polycarbonate and ABS enclosure is rated to IP67 with a rugged Kynar transducer.

Features include the firm's Digital Infinity surface mapping for accuracy and reliability, a small dead band, which optimises the filling of tanks and sumps, fail-safe intelligence with diagnostic feedback for troubleshooting, and a 7.6cm beam diameter for applications involving restricted space.

Automatic temperature compensation is provided from -40 to +71C.

The range of level measurement and control equipment is designed with corrosive and aggressive chemical applications in mind.
