Hydrostatic Level measurement Deltapilot FMB51
- SKU:
- Hydrostatic Level measurement Deltapilot FMB51 Series
- Weight:
- 0.00 Grams
Description
Application
The Deltapilot FMB51 is a rod-type device featuring a fixed process connection, equipped with a Contite measuring cell. It is commonly employed in the environmental sector for level measurement in both liquid and paste-like substances, within open or closed containers. The device operates reliably even in the presence of foam and is suitable for integration into SIL2 safety systems.
Key specifications for level measurement include:
- Process connections: Available with threaded or flanged options
- Operating temperature: -10 to +85°C (14°F to 185°F)
- Measuring range: 0.1 to 10 bar / 100 m H2O (1.5 to 150 psi / 300 ft H2O)
- Accuracy: ±0.2%, with an optional ±0.1%
The device is certified for international explosion protection, overfill prevention (WHG), SIL, and drinking water applications.
Benefits
The Deltapilot FMB51 offers several advantages:
- The Contite measuring cell is hermetically sealed, providing resistance to condensate and ensuring high reference accuracy of ±0.2%, with an optional upgrade to ±0.1%. Additionally, it exhibits minimal temperature influence.
- Its modular design allows for easy replacement of the display or electronics, enhancing maintenance convenience.
- The device supports seamless and independent system integration with HART, PROFIBUS PA, and FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocols.
- Operation is user-friendly and secure, with menu-guided options available on-site via the display module, or remotely through 4 to 20mA HART, PROFIBUS PA, or FOUNDATION Fieldbus.
- It is suitable for global use, backed by a wide array of international approvals.
