Deltapilot FMB70 - Hydrostatic Level measurement

The Deltapilot FMB70with the condensate resistant Contite measuring cell 
and two-chamber housing is typically used in the process and hygienic applications.
It is made for level measurement in liquid and paste-like media in open or closed
containers and unaffected by possible foam formation. The integrated HistoROM/M-DAT
data module makes management of process and device parameters easy. Designed according
to IEC 61508 for use in SIL3 safety systems.

Benefits

  • Hermetically sealed Contite measuring cell with condensate-resistance, high reference accuracy: ±0.1%, optionally ±0.075% and minimum temperature effects thanks to active temperature compensation

  • Best batch-to-batch repeatability and long-term stability

  • Modular concept for easy replacement of display or electronics

  • HistoROM/M-DAT data backup for instrument settings and measured values

  • Function-monitored from the measuring cell to the electronics

  • Seamless and independent system integration (HART/PA/FF)

  • International usage thanks to a wide range of approvals

 

Field of application

For level and/or pressure measurement.

  • Process connections: Threads, flanges and hygienic connections

  • Temperature: –10 to +100°C (14 to 212°F) (+135°C (275°F) for 30 minutes maximum)

  • Measuring range: 0.1 to 10 bar rel. (1.5 to 150 psi)

  • Accuracy: ±0.075%

  • International explosion protection certificates, overfill prevention WHG, SIL, hygienic certificates, marine approvals
