Description
Intempco two-wire LTX50 series level transmitters are compact in design and ideal where installation space is limited or tanks are small. Excellent for mobile equipment applications. LTX50 can be used to measure level of conductive or non-conductive liquids in metal tanks. In non-metallic tanks a ground reference electrode must be used. The 12-30 VDC 4.00mA base current is the supply to the unit. The LTX works on the RF principle and monitors level change by converting movement of media up or down the probe into pulse wave form which is proportional to changes in level. The amplifier converts this pulse wave into 4 to 20mA output signal.
The LTX50 comes complete with housing or fitting, probe, cable or connector, and remote transmitter. Remote electronics are protected and potted within a metal fitting. The connection between sensor and remote transmitter is accomplished via a 3-conductor cable which can be up to a 1000 feet (300 meters) long. The calibration is made via four push buttons, located on transmitter.
