The MPX-E’s light weight design makes it ideal for applications where space is limited, while the MPX-R’ s large, robust floats and stem make it ideal for harsh applications where fouling or build up might be a concern.
The MPX magnetostrictive liquid level probe is very accurate and tough as nails. It's also an ideal solution for taking two measurements: both the interface level measurement and a total volume.
The RS-485 Modbus RTU output makes the MPX compatible with any Modbus controller or PLC. It also simplifies wiring dramatically.
The MPX liquid level sensor is a Tank Cloud slave sensor, able to communicate via the Internet with the addition of an LOE Master sensor or an RST-5003 module.
This liquid level sensor is built to take a beating - designed for high turbidity environments in hazardous locations. It also has several materials options for the stem and floats for maximum chemical compatibility.
