New LT Level Transducers and Low Range Load Cells

Product News Thursday, February 9, 2012: StrainSense Limited

LTA and LTB Level Transducers

These are submersible hydrostatic level transducers specifically designed to meet the rigorous environments encountered in liquid level measurement and control. The LT Level Transducers utilize a highly accurate pressure sensor assembly specifically designed for hostile fluids. The assembly is integrated with supporting electronics in a durable waterproof housing constructed of 316 stainless steel. The attached electrical polyurethane cable is custom manufactured and attached with an over-moulding process that prevents moisture intrusion for reliable long product life.

The LTA features a 1.0” body with a ported nose cap design that protects the stainless steel diaphragm from damage. The LTB features a wide mouth non-fouling protective cage that protects the 2.75” TFM PTFE flexible diaphragm.

FEATURES

• Welded 316 Stainless Steel Housing
• Polyurethane Cable
• 4 – 20 mA Output
• Pre-calibrated Pressure Ranges
• Custom Cable Lengths up to 999 feet
• Sealed and Vented Pressure Reference

APPLICATIONS

• Lift Station Monitoring
• Pump Control
• Tank Liquid Level
• Landfill Leachate Monitoring
• Construction Bypass Pumping
• Dewatering

FN3280 Low Range Load Cell with Mechanical Stops

The FN3280 S-beam load cell is designed to measure low force and has standard ranges of 1 to 5 N [0.2 to 1 lbf]. Integrated mechanical stops protect against accidental overloads up to 100 times F.S. The FN3280 provides a combination of economy and performance, this low cost load cell has an accuracy of 0.1% F.S. For higher ranges, the model FN3148 can measurement loads from 10 N to 2 kN [2 to 400 lbf] with mechanical stops.

FEATURES

• Combined non-linearity & hysteresis 0.1% F.S
• Tension and Compression
• Integrated Mechanical Stops
• Full Wheatstone bridge
• Cable output

APPLICATIONS

• Process control equipment
• Medical Instruments
• Weighing
• Laboratory and Research
• Calibration test benches
