Intrinsically Safe, Titanium Stem Magnetostrictive Float Level Transmitter

MPI-T

Big Time Anti-Corrosion and HazLoc Ratings For Big Applications

With a 1"∅ titanium stem, Class I Div 1 and Class I Zone 0 approvals, and floats that just don't get stuck, the MPI-T is built to conquer corrosive chemicals and hazardous locations.

Description

The MPI-T takes the fight to large-scale corrosive or acidic level-measurement conditions.

Anti-corrosion
The MPI-T is made specifically for use with Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) and other corrosive liquids.

Modbus Output
The RS-485 Modbus RTU output makes any MPI compatible with any Modbus controller. It also pairs with the MDI controller to create a self-contained, Intrinsically Safe level monitoring solution.

Tank Cloud Compatible
The MPI liquid level sensor is a Tank Cloud slave sensor, able to communicate via the Internet with the addition of an LOE Master sensor or an RST-5003 module.

Common Applications
  • C I, D 1 Hazardous Locations
  • C I, Z 0 Hazardous Locations
  • Storage Tanks (up to 25 ft. measurable length)
  • Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S)
  • Corrosive Chemicals
  • Marine (Salt Water) Environments
  • Chromic (H2CrO4), Boric (H3BO3), and Nitrating (S15% H2SO4) Acids
  • Water and Wastewater Treatment
  • Pulp and Paper
  • Biotech
  • Chemical
