Hazardous-area tanks need level control that works inside an intrinsically safe system without compromising process visibility. This family is certified for liquid or fuel tanks installed underground and outdoors where flammable products are treated, with ATEX Exia approval listed in the source.
AISI 316 stainless steel construction supports demanding tank applications, while the potentiometric measuring principle provides continuous level control. A magnetic float actuates a chain of resistors and reed contacts inside the measuring rod, with selectable 5, 10 or 20 mm measuring resolution.
The configuration range helps match the sensor to the installation: lengths up to 6 m depending on the float, maximum working pressure up to 50 Bar, standard working temperature up to 100°C and execution up to 150°C on request. Outputs include potentiometric LC, 4-20mA LCT and 0-10V via SAFE POT barrier, with minimum ingress protection (IP) rating of IP65.
A magnetic float actuates a chain of resistors and reed contacts placed inside the measuring rod.
Output options include IP65 housing for 2G, IP66/67 housing for 1G, DIN 43650 IP65 connector and cable gland variants.
IP1 uses a brass IP68 cable gland, while IP2 uses a polyamide IP67 cable gland.
Installation from inside is listed for LC with IP1-2, while outside installation uses threaded and flanged process connections.
Male thread options include G parallel UNI 228/1, conical UNI 7/1 and conical NPT.
Exia level controls must be electrically connected to active or passive barriers according to EN 50020.
