The FTL51B is equipped with advanced diagnostic capabilities, ensuring safe and efficient level monitoring in industries such as chemicals, food and beverage, water treatment, and pharmaceuticals.
This device features vibration-based technology that is suitable for a wide range of fluids, regardless of foam, vapor, or changing density. The FTL51B provides reliable level detection with exceptional accuracy, even under extreme temperatures and pressures, offering an efficient solution for applications where high performance and minimal maintenance are required.
Product Features
Vibration-Based Level Detection: The Liquiphant FTL51B uses a tuning fork vibration principle to detect the presence or absence of liquid. The fork vibrates at its natural frequency, and when it comes into contact with the liquid, the frequency changes. This provides a clear indication of the liquid level.
No Moving Parts: The FTL51B operates without any moving components, reducing wear and tear and providing long-term reliability with minimal maintenance.
Versatile Application: Suitable for detecting liquids, slurries, and powders. It is widely used in applications such as storage tanks, pipelines, reactors, and separators.
Safe and Reliable: With ATEX, FM, CSA, and IECEx approvals, the device is certified for use in hazardous areas, making it ideal for industries like chemicals, oil and gas, and pharmaceuticals.
Universal Compatibility: The Liquiphant can be used in a wide range of process conditions, including high temperature, high pressure, and aggressive media.
Easy Installation: The FTL51B features a simple, compact design, making it easy to install and integrate into existing systems.
Integrated Diagnostics: Provides self-monitoring features to alert operators about potential issues, such as dry run conditions or failure to detect the liquid level.
Minimized Maintenance: With its sturdy design and lack of moving parts, the Liquiphant FTL51B offers reliable operation with minimal maintenance costs.
Output Signals: It offers both digital and analog output signals for easy integration with control systems. Outputs can be configured for ON/OFF control, and it can be connected to external relays or controllers for alarm or shutdown applications.
