Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides technical specifications and details for the Series LE float level transmitters, designed for liquid level measurement in various industrial applications. These transmitters are characterized by their simple construction, watertight installation, and excellent chemical resistance.

Specifications
  • Measuring range: 150 mm to 6 m
  • Resolution: 10 mm
  • Materials: EN 1.4404 (AISI 316L), PVC, PP, PVDF, PTFE
  • Connections: EN 1092-1 flange, BSP or NPT threaded connections
  • Output: 4-20 mA analog, with optional HART, PROFIBUS, FIELDBUS protocols
  • ATEX certified for safe or hazardous areas

Working Principle
The transmitters operate using a float with a magnetic field and a reed chain. Changes in liquid level alter the float position, activating reed switches that provide a resistance variation output, which is converted into an analog voltage or current output.

Applications
  • Industrial process control and dosing tanks
  • Food and beverage storage
  • Shipping industry level control
  • Chemical and textile industries

Models
  • LEM: Guide tube length < 2000 mm, minimum liquid density 0.8 kg/l
  • LE: Guide tube length > 2000 mm, minimum liquid density 0.6 kg/l

Technical Data
  • Resolution: 10 mm
  • Hysteresis: ±5 mm
  • Maximum liquid viscosity: 1500 cSt
  • Liquid temperature range varies by material
  • Working pressure: PN16 for EN 1.4404 and PVC/PP/PTFE with AISI 316L inside, PN10 for PVC/PP/PTFE
  • Ingress protection: IP67 for plastic housing, IP65 for connector and aluminum housing

Transmitters
The transmitters use a resistive sensor based on a reed and resistance chain. Variations in liquid level move the float, altering the resistance value, which is processed to provide a 0-4-20 mA current output proportional to the liquid level.

System Configurations
  • 2-wire system: TR2420 converter, IP67 plastic housing or IP65 aluminum housing
  • 4-wire system: TR420 converter, DIN 46277 rail mounted

Certifications
  • ISO 9001 Quality Management System
  • Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/CE
  • ATEX European Directive 94/9/CE

Working principle By means of float with magnetic field and reed chain. A reed switches / resistance chain is mounted inside a guide tube. The changes in liquid level modify the float position in this guide tube, so that it activates the reed switches providing an output signal of variation of resistance, which can be later converted into an analog output of voltage or current. - PTFE, PVDF:  Ambient temperature: - EN 1.4404 (AISI 316L): - PTFE, PVDF:  Working pressure: - EN 1.4404 (AISI 316L) and PVC / PP / PTFE with AISI 316L inside: PN16 - PVC / PP / PTFE: PN10 Others on request Applications...

Series_LE_Float_Level_Transmitter-5

Level transmitters Series LE Transmitters Transmitter composed of a resistive sensor based on a reed and resistances chain, mounted on a printed circuit placed inside a guide tube. Variations in level inside the tank move the float, which by means of magnetic coupling changes the value of the resistance of the resistive sensor in correspondence to the measured liquid level. These variations of resistance are processed by an electronic converter in order to obtain a 0 ... 4-20 mA current output proportional to liquid level.
