Original Press Release:
Introducing the TURCK EZ-track R16 Line of Intrinsically Safe, Programmable Liquid Level Sensors
Minneapolis, MN-January 3, 2005-TURCK announces the EZ-track R16 line of intrinsically safe, programmable liquid level sensors. The R16 liquid level sensor is a 2-wire loop powered intrinsically safe sensor that is ideal for continuous level monitoring in a variety of liquid and tank designs.
The R16 sensor uses magnetostrictive technology to monitor the position of a magnetic float along the active stroke of the sensing tube that is then converted into a configurable 4-20 mA output. The IP 68 rated R16 liquid level sensors are available in a rigid stainless steel housing or a flexible PVDF design. The probe lengths vary between 20 and 288 inches. The stainless steel version is also available with an optional food grade or 3A rated sanitary finish for use in an array of food service, dairy and beverage applications. A variety of floats, tri-clamp fittings and accessories are available to fit virtually any application requirements.
All the electronics for the EZ-track R16 sensor are incorporated within the 5/8 inch sensing rod which eliminates the need for an electronics enclosure at the top of the sensor. When ordered with the standard 4-pin minifast® quick disconnect, this feature offers greater mounting options and a faster, more reliable installation. The R16 liquid level sensor has a resolution of 0.02 inch of full scale, and an accuracy of 0.1 percent over the full 4-20 mA span, making it the ideal sensor for applications where continuous level position is required.
