Nivector FTC968 is a simple and cost-effective probe for point level detection in bulk solids in silos containing free-flowing powders or fine-grained solids. Its flush-mounted construction and materials make it suitable for use in the food industry.
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.
