Endress+Hauser Introduces FMX21 Level Sensor

The Waterpilot FMX21 level sensor from Endress+Hauser, made for measuring the level of sludge and wastewater, has a stainless steel housing and flush-mounted process diaphragm. With an optional Pt100 sensor, it can also measure temperature. The unit uses a ceramic cell to measure pressure. Any changes in pressure cause a change in capacitance, which the sensor’s electronics convert to a 4-20 mA signal that is linear to the level of the liquid. HART 6.0 is superimposed on the signal, enabling the operator to adjust the range remotely. 317/535-1329; www.us.endress.com.
