Media with Aggressive 

Technical Features

The Minicap FTC262 is particularly well - suited for point level detection in light bulk solids. Applications include industries such as food and beverage, where it can be used to detect the level of cereal products, flour, and milk powder. In the animal feed industry, it helps monitor the level of feed in storage silos.
In the construction materials sector, it is effective for detecting the level of cement, chalk, or gypsum. The sensor can handle bulk solids with a grain size up to a maximum of 30mm and a dielectric constant εr ≥ 1.6.

It is designed to operate in applications involving aggressive media. This makes it suitable for use in chemical plants or other industrial settings where the substances being monitored may be corrosive. Additionally, it can handle heavy buildup, ensuring reliable operation even in environments where materials tend to accumulate on the sensor.

The process connection is available in NPT or R thread, and the cable entry is via a gland.

The sensor features a rope probe, which can have a length ranging from 500 mm (20") to 6,000 mm (236"). This allows for flexibility in installation, as it can be adjusted to fit different tank or silo sizes. The rope probe of the Minicap FTC262 can also be shortened on - site, enabling optimum matching to the measuring point and reducing the need for excessive stocks.

The probe material is steel with HD - PE insulation, providing durability and protection against the process media.
