General
APG MPX-E Chemically Resistant Level Transmitter provides highly accurate and repeatable level readings in a wide variety of liquid level measurement applications. The MPX-R’s large, buoyant, and robust float allows it to be used in harsh applications where fouling or buildup might otherwise be of concern. The MPX-E’s lighter weight design allows it to be used in applications where space is limited.
The MPX-E Chemical has a chemical resistant coating, allowing for use in corrosive, acidic, and marine environments. And the MPX-F’s flexible stainless steel stem allows for installation in tall tanks without needing a crane. Anti-corrosion coating for use in hostile chemical environments. With a chemical resistant coating and a Kynar® float, the MPX-E Chemical delivers precision measurements in corrosive, acidic and marine environments.
APG MPX-E Chemically Resistant Features
- Class 1 Division 1 Groups C & D, Class 1 Zone 1, Class 1 Zone 2
- Highly accurate and repeatable readings
- 4-20 mA, RS-485 (Modbus RTU) output
- Rugged and reliable, lengths up to 32 feet (9.75 m)
- Dual level (interface) measurement • Tank volume/level, strapping table
Durable
The coating on the MPX-E Chemical is designed for use in corrosive, acidic, and marine environments. It can withstand sulfuric acid, boric acid, hydrochloric acid, and sodium hydroxide.
Modbus Output
The RS-485 Modbus RTU output makes the MPX compatible with any Modbus controller or PLC. It also simplifies wiring dramatically.
Tank Cloud Compatible
The MPX 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.
Application
- C I, D 1 Hazardous Locations
- Corrosive Chemicals
- Marine (Salt Water) Environments
- Sulfuric, Boric, or Hydrochloric Acids
- Sodium Hydroxide
