Level Transmitters

Level Transmitters are sensors with an electrical transmission output for remote indication of liquid, powder or bulk level. Capacitive, float, mechanical, submersible, and ultrasonic models are the different types available of level transmitters.

Capacitive Capacitive level transmitters are sensors with an electrical transmission output for remote indication of level. Models feature an easy push button calibration of zero and span. Comes with a rigid or flexible probe. Applications include chemical processing, aggregates, plastics, and mining. View More

Float Float level transmitters are sensors with an electrical transmission output for remote indication of liquid level. Available to be customizable. Provides up to the minute tank level monitoring. Applications include gas & oil and low specific gravity applications. View More

Submersible Hydrostatic submersed level transmitters are sensors with an electrical transmission output for indication of liquid level. Bullet, cage, and flush tip models are available. Applications include sumps, reservoirs, down hole, oil tanks, lime slurry, and water tanks. There is a miniature submersible transmitter that is low power voltage. View More

Ultrasonic Ultrasonic level transmitters are sensors with an electrical transmission output. Explosion-proof, remote sensor, and cellular models available. Applications include process tanks, chemical processing, and water & wastewater. Ultrasonic technology with temperature compensation provide accurate and reliable measurements. View More

Questions

Question

Our client has an MBLT pressure transmitter that appears to be malfunctioning due to scale buildup. The transmitter is installed to measure leachate level in a one-year old municipal sanitary landfill. What can we use to remove scale from the transmitter without damaging the transmitter?

Answer

If the issue is due to build-up which consequently plugs the small sensing holes, you might take a look at our PBLT2 or FBLT series. They are both more rugged and designed for sludge and slurries, whereas the MBLT and SBLT2 are better suited for cleaner applications such as ground water and wells.

Question

Is it safe to soak an MBLT level transmitter in vinegar or muratic acid to remove accumulated scale deposits?

Answer

Feel free to use whatever cleaning chemicals you like to remove accumulated scale deposits as long as the chemicals are compatible with the unit’s wetted materials as specified in our published literature.
