Level Detection: Safety Level Package

Aug. 9, 2010
Reducing risk and increasing safety is the daily mantra in the process industry, and now comes a complete safety level package for measurement systems.
This new safety level package combines redundant systems, independent technologies and a SIL2 certified device. Included in this offering is the AT200 high accuracy transmitter, a magnetostrictive device that help reduce risk at the process measurement level when implementing Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) in process plant environments. Another component are point level switches, such as the TX Thermal Dispersion and Resonator Vibrating forks, which offer an independent and redundant form of level detection. The MagWave dual-chamber level measurement system has an  enclosure that includes a magnetic level gauge for level indication based on the specify gravity of the process, and a guided wave radar transmitter for measurements based on dielectric constant.
