    For Liquids

    For Liquids with Solids

    FM and C-FM approved, these transmitters safely measure liquid levels where explosive gas or dust may be present. Set them at the bottom of your tank in applications that make traditional mounting difficult. They sense liquid levels by measuring the pressure from the weight of the liquid above them. All continuously send measurements, so you can monitor status and manage components in your system. Also known as level loggers, level sensors, and pressure transducers.
    For Liquids with Solids—Transmitters for liquids with solids have an unobstructed sensing element that resists clogging and sludge buildup in water with particulate and sewage.

    Noncontact Liquid-Level Transmitters

    Use these transmitters to measure the levels of corrosive, dirty, or sticky liquids without coming into contact with them. They’ll continuously send measurements, so you can monitor status and manage components in your system. Mount at the top of your tank. There should be no tank walls, agitators, or other objects in the path of the transmitter.

    Interface

    Ultrasonic transmitters use high-frequency sound waves and are often used to measure water, wastewater, chemicals, and oil but won’t work on vapors, foam, and other media that’s difficult to measure. The included fob allows you to connect your transmitter to your computer, where you'll download software that guides you through the setup process to make sure you get accurate readings.
    Digital Switch Output—Transmitters with a switch can also signal your controller to turn components on or off when they reach a set level.
    NEMA 6P Enclosure Rating—NEMA 6P rated transmitters protect against dust, weather, washdowns, corrosion, and submersion. IP68 rated transmitters seal out dust and water from temporary submersion.
    Button Interface—Ultrasonic transmitters with a button interface can be set up and calibrated without the fob.

    Radar transmitters use high-frequency electromagnetic waves and are best for liquids that are tricky to measure because they work even if there’s condensation, foam, or other difficult conditions. They also measure the level of liquids with solids and small solids. In addition to the traditional 4-20 mA output, these transmitters can also send measurements to your Android smartphone or tablet using Bluetooth. There’s an app you can use to set up your transmitter and calibrate it for your system.
