Atlas™ Magnetic Level Indicator DESCRIPTION Magnetically coupled liquid level indicators, or MLIs, are in widespread use throughout process industries. Originally designed as an alternative to sight and gauge glass devices, the MLI is now commonly used in both new construction and plant expansion. Magnetic level indicators are precision engineered and manufactured to indicate liquid level accurately, reliably, and continuously. These units are completely sealed and require no periodic maintenance. MLIs also eliminate vapour or liquid emission problems common with sight and gauge glasses. To complement these products, a complete range of level switches and transmitters is available. Combinations using Jupiter® (magnetostrictive technology) are also possible. The Atlas™ is our standard high-performance magnetic level indicator. Atlas is a single chamber design with either a 2”, 2 1/2”, or 3” chamber diameter, as required by the application. There are several configuration styles including top mount models. Consult factory for choices not listed in this bulletin. ATLAS MLIs are produced in a wide range of materials, including exotic alloys and plastics. We also offer the most complete selection of process connection types and sizes in the industry. ATLAS can be equipped with a variety of level transmitters and switches as well as flag and shuttle indicators with or without stainless steel scales. This enables the ATLAS to be a complete level and monitoring control. FEATURES • Numerous chamber styles (or configurations) are available for each design. Consult factory for choices not listed in this bulletin • Complete range of level switches and level transmitters. • Fabricated, non-magnetic chamber assembly produced in a wide range of metal and plastic materials • A wide range of process connections is available • Precision manufactured float with internal magnets and magnetic flux ring • ASME and EN 1092-1 process connections available • Flag or shuttle type indicator with stainless steel scale to measure height or percentage of level • Standard float stop springs at top and bottom of chamber • Exceptional code qualified welding Feedwater heaters Industrial boilers Oil/water separators Flash drums Surge tanks Gas chillers Deaerators Blowdown flash tanks Hot wells Vacuum tower bottoms Alkyl

ORION FLOAT TECHNOLOGY Weld ring: Secures float cap to main body. Flux ring: Absorbs magnetic energy and directs it outward. Magnets: A full array surrounds the float with a strong and consistent magnetic field. The float contained within the magnetic level indicator is perhaps the most important element of the instrument. Its structural design, volume displacement, weight, and buoyancy force are all carefully considered when a float is specified for a particular application. Our engineers have designed and tested hundreds of floats to gather the most accurate data available. We have...
