Explosion Proof Magnetostrictive Float Level Sensor

MPX-T

Titanium Float Level Transmitter

The MPX-T Titanium Float Level Sensor is engineered for extreme environments, specifically for applications with hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and aggressive chemicals. With a 1″ titanium stem, this durable sensor resists corrosion where other probes fail. The MPX-T is ideal for industries requiring reliable liquid level measurement in harsh conditions.

  • Safety Rated: Explosion-proof design for hazardous environments
  • Max length: 25 ft for deep tank applications
  • Output: RS-485 Modbus and 4-20 mA for seamless integration

What is the MPX-T Magnetostrictive Float Level Transmitter?

The MPX-T is an Intrinsically Safe magnetostrictive float level transmitter featuring a titanium stem, designed for precise liquid level measurements in various industrial applications.

The MPX-T shares similar features with other APG magnetostrictive transmitters, however, its titanium stem offers enhanced corrosion resistance, making it particularly suitable for applications involving corrosive liquids.

The MPX-T offers two primary output options:​

  • 4-20 mA Analog Output: Provides a current signal proportional to the liquid level, commonly used in industrial control systems.​

  • RS-485 Modbus RTU Output: Allows for digital communication, enabling integration with Modbus-compatible devices and systems.

The MPX-T operates on a power supply ranging from 12 to 24 VDC, with a maximum current consumption of 80 mA.

The MPX-T can be equipped with integrated temperature sensors to provide temperature readings along with level measurements. This feature allows for temperature compensation in applications where temperature variations could affect measurement accuracy.
