Endress+Hauser Capacitance Point level detection Minicap FTC260 Minicap FTC260 is a simple and cost-effective rod probe for point
level detection in bulk solids, particularly suited to applications
involving aggressive media and heavy build-up. It is designed for
point level detection of light bulk solids, e.g. grain products,
flour, milk powder, animal feed, cement, chalk or gypsum. For point level detection of light bulk solids, with a grain size
up to max. 30mm and a dielectric constant εr ≥ 1.6. Typical applications: Grain products, flour, milk powder, animal
feed, cement, chalk or gypsum. Process connection: Threads Temperature: -40 to +80°C (-40 to +176°F) Pressure: -1 to +25bar (-14.5 to +360psi) Sensor length: 140mm (5.51") International explosion protection certificates, overfill
