Faqs:
What is the working principle of the FTL50 Vibronic Level Transmitter?
The FTL50 uses a metal tuning fork that vibrates at its natural resonance. When liquid covers the fork, the vibration dampens, and the frequency shift is detected, triggering a switch state change. This principle works independently of conductivity, dielectric constant, density, and viscosity.
What are the key applications for the FTL50?
The FTL50 is used for overfill protection in tanks, dry-run protection for pumps, leak detection in pipelines, and safety-critical loops. It's suitable for water & wastewater, chemical and petrochemical, oil & gas, food & beverage, and power plants.
What certifications does the FTL50 have?
The FTL50 is certified for functional safety (SIL2/3), explosion protection (ATEX, IECEx, FM, CSA, NEPSI), marine approvals (ABS, BV, DNV GL, LR), and hygienic standards (EHEDG, 3A, FDA-compliant materials for FTL51C).
