The submersible probe head contains a mathematically characterized spring-float system. When the head is immersed vertically in the liquid, the float moves vertically and the position of the float controls the position of a permanent magnet whose displacement is sensed by a concentric array of Hall-effect linear displacement sensors. The output signals of the sensors are mixed in a dedicated electronics module that provides an single output voltage whose magnitude is a direct linear measure of the quantity to be measured.

The submersible probe head connects to an electronics module that can be 120vac operated or optional battery operated. Basic electronics module provides power to the sensors and contains a programmable process meter that can be push button programmed to provide digital panel meter readout of the quantity to be measured in preferred engineering units (sgu, Baume, Brix, % alcohol, etc.). The electronics module can accommodate optional microprocessor boards that provide a choice of analog outputs of 0-5 vdc or 4-20 ma for process control. The submersible prove head operates on 5 vdc with a total power of less than 120 milliwatts, which renders it intrinsically safe. The submersible probe head has an output 0-5 vdc.

Please note: When asking for quotation please include information as to specific density range, lead length (4-foot standard), and sensor compatibility to the monitoring medium, especially regarding virulent solvents, as sensors are custom made to application. The end user must verify results to their application specifications prior to ordering.
