MAGNETIC FLOAT OPERATED

GUIDED LEVEL TRANSMITTER
“FGT”
It is a reliable technique for continuous level measurement of variety of liquids, chemically
compatible with the transmitter MOC. The float is designed for variety of liquids and its unique
self cleaning construction is well suited for even sticky or dirty liquids with no float hang-ups.

SALIENT FEATURES
• Factory calibrated, ready to install
• Liquid level or liquid/ liquid interface detection
• Customized lengths upto 4 meters
• Option of Integral Display
• Option of HART or RS 485 output
• Option of Zener Barrier for Intrinsic safety for
hazardous area

CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING

It consists of a float & guide tube assembly in
non-magnetic material, to achieve undisturbed
flux. A PCB strip of closely spaced glass
encapsulated reed switches and resistors is
placed inside the guide tube fig.1.

During rise and fall of liquid level, the magnetic

float moves and actuates a reed switch and
develops a proportional voltage. The sensed
voltage is fed to the transmitter located in the
enclosure for conversion to a signal of 4-20 mA, to
use with PLC or DCS. Alternatively, the signal can
be transmitted to a display unit for remote
indication or to a display unit integral with
transmitter for local indication.

INSTALLATION

1. Internal Installation
Transmitter is top mounted on the tank. A stillwell with
perforation is recommended for liquids under turbulence.
For fitment of stillwell, ensure that NB of tank nozzle is
greater than the diameter of stillwell.

2. External Installation
Transmitter is top mounted on a chamber, external to the
tank. This installation is adopted on the tank, containing
mechanical devices like stirrers, ladders & other internals
or to overcome space limitation in the tank.
