Point Level Switch Soliswitch FTE20 Rotary Paddle Switch
Brand: Endress+HauserPoint Level Switch Soliswitch FTE20 Rotary Paddle Switch
Brand: Endress+Hauser
The economical Soliswitch FTE20 is a paddle switch for point level detection in bulk materials. Its robust polymer housing and compact design makes it an ideal sensor for full, empty and demand alarm in applications with bulk solids. The optimized polymers make the unit outstandingly robust and therefore suitable for use in dust explosive areas according the latest standards.
