FMB53 Hydrostatic Level measurement Deltapilot

Pressure sensor with Contite measuring cell for hydrostatic level measurement

Field of application

The Deltapilot FMB53 is a cable version with mounting clamp. This device with the Contite measuring cell is typically used in the environmental industries. It is made for level measurement in liquid and paste-like media in open or closed containers and unaffected by possible foam formation. For use in SIL2 safety systems.

For level measurement.
