Product Description

Product Description

E+H Vibronic Point level detection Soliphant FTM51 point level switch

The Endress+Hauser Soliphant FTM51 is a highly reliable and rugged point level switch designed specifically for detecting the presence of fine - grained or powdery solids, even those with a low bulk density, in silos and storage containers. Since its introduction, it has been a trusted solution in the industry, known for its precision and durability.

The Endress+Hauser Soliphant FTM51 is a versatile, reliable, and high - performing point level switch for fine - grained and powdery solids. Its unique features, wide range of applications, and comprehensive certifications make it a preferred choice for industries seeking accurate and durable level - detection solutions.

Working Principle

Operating on the vibronic measuring principle, the Soliphant FTM51 features a tuning fork that is set into vibration at its natural frequency. In an unobstructed state, such as when surrounded by air or gas, the fork vibrates freely. However, when solid particles, like fine - grained powders, come into contact with the fork, the vibration frequency is altered due to the added mass and damping effect of the solids. The sensor electronics are highly sensitive to this change in frequency. Once the frequency deviation reaches a pre - determined threshold, it triggers an output signal. This signal indicates that the solid material has reached the level of the tuning fork, providing an accurate point level detection.

Field of application

Soliphant FTM51 is a robust point level switch for use in silos containing fine-grained or powdery solids even with a low bulk density. Suitable for a wide range of applications with international certificates for use in dust or gas hazardous areas. Available with polished fork and stainless steel housing with Tri-Clamp or with aluminum housing and coated fork. Maintenance-free device for use in typical applications like: cereals, flour, cocoa, sugar, animal feed, dye powder, chalk. 
Point level switch for fine grained solids and powder.

2.No mechanically moved parts, free of maintenance
3.Measurement not affected by build-up or external vibration
4.Various electronic inserts: e.g. NAMUR, relay, thyristor and PFM-signal outputs for optimum alignment with the plant control system
5.Build-up and abrasion display selectable, density setting and switching delay selectable
6.Choice of coated or polished sensor
7.Build-up and corrosion detection

High Reliability

The measurement accuracy of the Soliphant FTM51 remains consistent and is not easily affected by common factors that can disrupt other level - detection methods. Issues such as material build - up on the sensor, external vibrations from nearby machinery, or the presence of solid lumps in the powder do not impact its performance. This high level of reliability ensures that it provides accurate and consistent level indication, reducing the likelihood of false alarms and ensuring the smooth operation of industrial processes.

Thanks to its design, which has no mechanically moving parts, the FTM51 requires minimal maintenance. Without the need to replace worn - out moving components, the device has a long operational life. This not only reduces maintenance costs but also minimizes the downtime associated with equipment servicing, making it a cost - effective and reliable solution for continuous industrial operations.

Its products and technologies are widely used in electric power, metallurgy, petrochemicals, environmental protection, plastics, food, printing, tobacco,textile, dyeing, and other felds.

Valve Positioner: A valve positioner is a crucial control device that precisely regulates the position of control valves in industrial processes. It receives control signals from a controller and compares them with the actual valve position.

Flowmeter: A flowmeter is an instrument designed to measure the flow rate of liquids, gases, or steam within a pipeline or channel. 

Transmitter: A  transmitter is a device that senses a physical parameter, like pressure, temperature, or level, and converts it into a standardized output signal, usually 4 - 20 mA DC or digital signals.
