PY pressure transmitter | Level applications

Insulated tank level

Many times, process tanks are insulated to keep the medium inside a constant temperature. Often, pressure transmitters to measure level in these applications are fitted with diaphragm seals which extend the body of the sensor to reach the medium though the insulation. The diaphragm seals are fragile and easily damaged in the cleaning process when hit directly by spray balls or when mechanically cleaned. What if you didn’t have to worry about damaging metal diaphragms or fill fluid leaking into your process? 

The direct process measurement via the PY’s capacitive-ceramic technology offers an accurate solution in a robust package. ifm makes adapters to retrofit the PY and PM sensors into existing weld-in tank shells.
