APGModel Series MPX-E Chemical -Chemically Resistant Magnetostrictive Float Level Transmitter

SHARE
The MPX Series Magnetostrictive Level sensor provides highly accurate and repeatable level readings in a wide variety of liquid level measurement applications. With a chemical resistant coating and a Kynar float, the MPX-E Chemical Magnetostrictive Level Transmitter delivers precision measurements in places where stainless steel doesn't measure up. The chemical resistant coating allows for use in corrosive, acidic, and marine environments.

  • Range: Up to 96 in.,Up to 12.75 ft
  • Mount: 2" NPT
  • Output: Tank Cloud Slave,4-20 mA, Modbus RTU
  • Certification: Class 1, Div 1,Class 1, Div 2

Durable
The coating on the MPX-E Chemical is designed for use in corrosive, acidic, and marine environments. It can withstand sulfuric acid, boric acid, hydrochloric acid, and sodium hydroxide.

Modbus Output
The RS-485 Modbus RTU output makes the MPX compatible with any Modbus controller or PLC. It also simplifies wiring dramatically.

Tank Cloud Compatible
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.
