Level measurement
Fields of application
The pressure transmitter FKE - NC - K3 can be used for all types of level measurement, on corrosive or non-corrosive liquids, and on tanks closed or open to the atmosphere, for nuclear applications.
Features
The FCX-AII series electronic transmitter level sensor is a device that accurately measures liquid level and converts it into a directly proportional 4-20 mAcc output signal. The heart of the measuring element is a silicon micro-capacitive sensor, offset in the neck of the cell. In addition, the electronic unit benefits from the latest microprocessor technology.
