Hydrostatic level sensors measure fluid height and thus its level by means of the hydrostatic pressure applied by the water column directly above the sensor.A measuring cell at the bottom of the sensor registers this pressure so that the sensorÕs internal electronics can generate a 4-20 mA or a 0-10 VDC signal proportional to the detected fluid level. Because all parts of the pressure sensor coming in contact with the liquid being measured are made of stainless steel, this sensor is suitable for unrestricted use in the food industry.For measurements of caustic / corrosive liquids, a design featuring a teflon-jacketed connetction cable is also available.
The FT01 level sensor is used in measuring applications that require provision of a precise, stable and reliable output signal even under extreme operating conditions. The high electrical protection rating (IP 68) and its high resistance to corrosion make the FT01 level sensor suitable for use in a vast variety of containers, basins, shafts and tanks.With its large diaphragm surface area, the FT01 has proven to be especially suitable for monitoring wastewater systems.
