Field of application

Liquicap FTI52 is a rope probe for point level detection of liquids that are highly viscous and tend to form build-up. Also used for detection of interface and foam of conductive liquids. Due to its active build-up compensation FTI52 offers maximum reliability and is suited for a wide range of applications thanks to international certificates. The parts in contact with the process are made of corrosion-resistant and FDA-listed materials - this guarantees a high safety standard.

For liquids that tend to form build-up. Interface detection of different liquids. Two-point control (pump control) with just one process connection. Foam detection of conductive liquids.

Process connections: Flanges, threads, special hygienic process connections
Temperature: -80 to +200°C (-112 to +392°F)
Pressure: Vacuum to +100bar (vacuum to +1,450psi)
Sensor length: 12m (39ft)
International explosion protection certificates, overfill prevention WHG, SIL, hygienic certificates, marine approval

Benefits

Cost savings thanks to easy and fast commissioning as calibration takes place at the press of a button
Reliable and safe measurement due to active build-up compensation
Reliable and universal application thanks to wide range of certificates and approvals
Short reaction time
Material in contact with the process made of corrosion-resistant and FDA-listed materials
Two-stage overvoltage protection
No need for recalibration after replacing electronics
