Endress+Hauser Nivector FTC968 Capacitance Point level detection

• Simple mounting and commissioning without calibration
• Mechanical safety, cost-efficiency and long operating life due to no wearing parts
• Reliable operation due to high immunity to electromagnetic interference and voltage peaks
• Simple control thanks to the visibility of the switching status from outside the vessel
• Function test also with filled silo possibleFunction test also with filled silo possible

For point level detection in silos containing free-flowing powders or fine-grained solids (max. particle size 10mm), also for use with foodstuffs. Nivector FTC 968 is designed for use in 
dust-explosion hazardous areas. 
Typical applications: Plastic granules, detergent, grain, sugar, spices, semolina, animal feed.
