Description
A float fitted with a magnet slides along a guide tube and
follows the fluid level. The float unit consists of a magnetcarrying
float installed around a stainless steel tube. As
the float moves up or down on the tube, a reed switch
chain is actuated inside the guide tube.
Reed switches act as a variable resistance. The variable
resistance signal is coverted into an analog 4-20mA
signal by a 2 wire loop powered transducer. The current
output is proportional to the liquid level in the tank. The
transducer is installed in a standard or flame-proof ATEX
housing outside of the tank. An Intrinsically Safe version
is also available.
