The Liquiphant FTL43 is a point level switch for liquids and part of the Compact Line. The product line is especially developed for hygienic applications and combines compact design with full performance. The proven vibronic technology works reliably in all pumpable liquids, without media adjustment. The Liquiphant FTL43 is distinguished by its ease of use with plug & play functionality and a wide range of digital communication options.

Liquiphant FTL43 is used for point level detection in process and storage tanks as well as in pipelines.

Liquiphant FTL43 covers a wide range of hygienic applications:

  • Level detection in narrow skids and modules for various liquids
  • Pump dry run protection in pipes
  • Overfill protection in process tanks
  • Detection of media with different densities
Features
  • Outstanding ease of use due to easy commissioning with plug & play functionality
  • Improved process and product safety through configuration integrity - a checksum algorithm (CRC) ensures that safety relevant parameters remain unchanged
  • Increased productivity thanks to traceable and documented on-demand verification without process interruption and continuous diagnostics with Heartbeat Technology
  • Documented compliance through certified hygienic design as well as proven material conformity and traceability
  • User-friendly operation with guided wizards and a wide range of digital communication options
