Product catalog summary
Introduction: The Universal IV™ Series by Drexelbrook represents the latest advancements in RF continuous level measurement systems, offering compatibility with previous models and enhancements such as hazardous location approval, a standard display/keypad, autoranging capabilities, and improved measurement stability and accuracy.
Models:
  • Pro Model: Features RF Admittance technology with Cote-Shield™ to ignore probe coatings, suitable for a wide range of applications including conductive, insulating, and coated materials.
  • Lite Model: An entry-level RF Capacitance system without Cote-Shield™, ideal for non-coating conductive liquids and insulated applications.
Features and Benefits:
  • Versatile technology for measuring liquids, slurries, interfaces, and granules.
  • Over 125 probe types available for various applications.
  • Operates in extreme temperatures and pressures.
  • Stable and accurate measurements with no dead zones.
  • Immune to vapor, dust, foam, and tank obstructions.
  • Low maintenance with no moving parts.
  • Easy calibration and configuration with PC-based software or handheld communicator.
  • Worldwide hazardous location approvals.
Applications:
  • Oil and Gas: Effective in desalter/dehydrators and electrostatic separators, and sulfur removal processes.
  • Water and Wastewater: Suitable for equalization tanks and digesters, handling heavy chemical build-up and foam.
  • Pharmaceutical/Biotech: Reliable in de-ionized water measurement without drift.
Probe Selection: Offers a wide range of probes for different applications, with options for customization. Probes are constructed for high quality and reliability, with various materials and process connections available.
Backward Compatibility: Fully compatible with previous Drexelbrook models, ensuring a seamless transition for existing installations.
Specifications: Utilizes RF Admittance/Capacitance technology with a supply voltage of 13-30VDC, 2-wire loop powered. The output is 4-20mA, compatible with HART® protocol. The ambient temperature range is -40°C to 75°C, and the process temperature range is -106°C to 815°C, depending on the probe. The process pressure can handle vacuum to 1350 bar. Various process connections are available, including NPT, BSP, JIS, ANSI, DIN, Grayloc, and Tri-Clamp.
Upgrade Procedure: To upgrade existing systems, the probe does not need to be removed from the tank. The old housing is replaced with the new Universal IV Housing. The retrofit kit model ‘R00’ includes all necessary adapters for all possible connections.
Model Numbering: Includes technology type, digital protocols, measurement type, approvals, electrical connections, surge/noise suppression, configuration options, dual seal options, special software, sensing element codes, process gland wetted parts, and process connections.
Key Features: Offers autoranging capacitance measurement, Cote-Shield™ for coating rejection, integral or remote configuration, high accuracy, and compliance with various international standards and approvals such as FM, FMc, ATEX, IECEx, and CE Mark.
Contact Information: Drexelbrook can be contacted via phone, fax, or email for further details.

Analytical Products Universal IV CM-1

DATA SHEET The Universal IV™ Series is the fourth generation RF continuous system built on Drexelbrook’s 50 years of experience in level measurement. The product is backward compatible with the industry standard Universal III™, Univeral Lite™, Universal II™ and RCT™ Series and is the ideal solution for a wide array of applications. A few enhancements to the Universal IV Series include worldwide hazardous location approval, standard display/ keypad, autoranging capabilities and state of the art stable and accurate measurement. Pro Model The Universal IV™ Pro model integrates the RF Admittance technology pioneered by Drexelbrook with the versatility of Cote-Shield™ technology that ignores coatings on the probe and measurement span of 1" to 800'. The Pro is compatible with a vast array of applications: conductive, insulating, and heavy or light coating. Lite Model The Universal IV™ Lite model is the entry level RF Capacitance measurement system without Cote-Shield™ capabilities. Lite models can be used in non-coating conductive liquids and insulated coating applications where Cote-Shield™ is not required. In addition, the Lite model offers a measurement range up to 20' typically. Features and Benefits: • Proven Drexelbrook level solution for the most common to the most challenging applications • The most versatile level technology for liquids, slurries, interface and granules measurement • Over 125 probe types for a wide array of applications, flex, rigid, wetted materials and process connections • 2-wire, 4-20mA loop transmitter with the widely accepted digital HART protocol • Process temperature from cryogenic to 1000°F (537°C) • Process pressure from vacuum to 10,000 PSI (690 BAR) • Measurement span as short as 1” (25mm) to 800 ft (244m), no dead zone or blocked measurement areas • Proven Cote-Shield™ technology that ignores coating build-up on the probe • Immune to vapor, dust and foam interference • Immune to tank obstructions such as nozzles, ladders, pipes and agitators • Low cost of ownership, no maintenance, and no moving parts to wear out • Stable, repeatable, and accurate measurement within 0.25% of range • Built-in isolation and surge protection for increased reliability • Easy one-time calibration, configure it once and go • Free PC-based HRTWIN™ configuration software for initial setup from anywhere on the loop or a handheld HART®communicator can be used • Standard user friendly push-button LCD display for configuration and monitoring • Integral and remote installation. The transmitter can be integrated with the probe, or for harsh environmental conditions it can be installed remotely away from the probe/vessel • Worldwide approvals: FM, FMc, ATEX, IECEx and CE mark • Hazardous location approvals, Intrinsic Safety (IS) and Explosion Proof/Flameproof for Class I, Div I, and Zone 0 installations • Fully backward compatible with Drexelbrook’s leading products such as Universal III, Universal Lite and RCT series • 50+ years of Drexelbrook applications knowledge that ensures the right solution for your application
