Here at Automation Products Group, Inc. (APG), we offer a variety of pressure and level sensors to meet our customers’ needs. This blog post will focus on the PT-500 submersible pressure transducer, the RP (RPM, RPE, RPX) level probes, the PG5 digital pressure gauge, the LOE ultrasonic level sensor, and the loop-powered ultrasonic level sensors, the LPU-2428 and the LPU-2127. Discover how these innovative solutions can enhance your industrial processes.
Our PT-500 submersible pressure transducers are excellent for submersible needs. Their water-tight housing makes them well-suited to measuring dirty or clean water. With built-in lightning protection and field zero adjust, these transducers are a reliable solution to many wastewater problems. There’s a choice of a patented re-usable cage or a fixed, welded cage. A reusable cage saves money when purchasing a reusable sensor.
Our resistive level sensors are a simple, reliable, and highly repeatable way to measure liquid level. Rated as Explosion Proof and Intrinsically Safe, these sensors are fully customizable to suit your specific requirements, including probe length, float type, specific gravity, and outputs. The RPM model, equipped with a heavier float, works very well in applications where heavy build-up is present. The RPM also has the thickest stem, or sensing rod, for applications with high turbulence or flow. The RPX and RPE models are designed for smaller tanks, measuring up to 8 feet and 12.5 feet, respectively.
Our PG5 digital pressure gauge is the foundation of our PG series of gauges. This general purpose, full-feature digital pressure gauge is perfect for precise, intuitive indoor pressure measurements. The entire menu system can be navigated quickly with the use of only three buttons. The advantages of a digital pressure gauge over analog gauges are numerous: clear display for easy view, excellent resolution, and resistance to vibration.
Our LOE ultrasonic level sensor is a highly adaptable solution for liquid level monitoring and remote level monitoring. This ultrasonic level sensor is flexible enough for any network connection, with the ability to connect to our Tank Cloud remote monitoring system. The LOE level sensors can be programmed remotely via the Internet, in the comfort of your office. It can manage up to 10 APG Modbus sensors, in any combination of level, pressure, magnetostrictive, and ultrasonic sensors.
LPU-2127 is loop-powered for faster, more efficient wiring, and an easy-to-use interface and keypad eliminates the need for a computer. It boasts CSA ratings for Class 1, Div. 2, Groups C and D, along with IP 65 rated housing, making it virtually maintenance-free.
LPU-2428 is Intrinsically Safe with a 4-20 mA output, capable of internally calculating distance, level, flow, and volume. This sensor features a 32-point linearization table for non-linear tanks and channels. It’s suitable for use in hazardous areas rated CSA Class 1, Div. 1, allowing it to accurately take measurements in tough environments.
