Fluidwell F073 Safe Intrinsically safe Level Monitor - ATEX

Description

The Fluidwell F073 Safe Intrinsically safe Level Monitor serves as a specialized solution for operators requiring basic level control without the complexity of PI(D) systems. It operates by utilizing a preset value combined with two user-defined switch points. These points are entered as percentages of the preset value to trigger the device on or off, effectively maintaining a stable level through built-in hysteresis.

What distinguishes the F073 in the field is its uncompromising build quality and safety certifications. The unit is available in GRP, Aluminum, or Stainless Steel 316L enclosures that are so rugged a truck can stand on them without causing damage. Furthermore, its Intrinsically Safe design (ATEX, IECEx, and CSA C-US) ensures it can be safely deployed in hazardous areas containing gas or dust. Configuration is handled entirely through software, eliminating the vulnerabilities associated with sensitive trimmers or DIP-switches.
