Ramsey C-Level Continuous Level Indicator - Thermo Scientific - Process Systems - #1

Text version of the page

Product Specifications The Thermo Scientific Ramsey C-Level continuous level indicator's unique precision strain gauge sensors are press-fit into a vessel’s support structure, so there is no concern for failure or maintenance issues caused by difficult materials or harsh process environments. This ensures that your process operates at its optimum level of performance. It will increase your profits and improve your bottom line. Thermo Scientific Ramsey C-Level Continuous Level Measurement for Bins and Vessels The Thermo Scientific Ramsey C-Level continuous level indicator is ideally suited for inventory monitoring and process control during the load-out or filling of bins and vessels containing bulk solids or liquids. Because its unique precision strain gauge sensors are press-fit into the vessel’s support structure, the system can operate without concern for failure or maintenance issues caused by the monitored material or process environment. This distinctive design also compensates for temperature changes that can affect the accuracy of bolt-on strain sensors. Accurate to within ±2%, the RamseyTM C-Level is unaffected by corrosive or abrasive materials, uneven material discharge, build-up on sidewalls, bridging, rat-holing or dusting. Thermo Scientific Ramsey CL-100 Control Simple operation and ease of calibration have made this a favorite with users worldwide. The microprocessor-based control uses inputs from up to eight sensors to calculate and display the material level on an easy-to-read LED bar graph. The system is easily calibrated using the keypad on the front panel. Two different material levels are used to calibrate the system: one high point and one low point. The microprocessor does the rest. It automatically averages the outputs from the sensors and indicates the material level from 0-100%. High and low alarm set-points are also adjustable from the keypad. There's even a fixed set-point at 102% of bin capacity to indicate overflow conditions. All of the set-up and calibration information is retained in a non-volatile EEPROM. Features and Benefits • Precision electronic strain sensing with hermetically-sealed stainless steel strain sensor (U.S. patent no. 4530245) • Sensor mounted externally to the bin, which eliminates contamination or corrosion that can result from contact with the monitored product • Incorporation of the sensor as an integral part of the support member cancels temperature effects common to so-called “bolt-on” sensors, eliminating the need for protective insulation
