Waterpilot FMX21 is a robust hydrostatic level probe featuring an oil‑free capacitive ceramic measuring cell for stable and accurate measurement results. Freely adjustable measuring ranges can be configured via HART, enabling flexible adaptation to different process requirements in drinking water, wastewater and saltwater applications. An optionally integrated temperature sensor enables simultaneous measurement of level and temperature.
Available in three versions for drinking water, wastewater and saltwater applications, Waterpilot FMX21 is supported by international explosion protection certificates, marine and drinking water approvals. It is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including:
Deep and narrow drinking water wells and boreholes
Process and storage tanks in water and wastewater applications
Saltwater and marine tanks, e.g. ballast water tanks
Rivers, lakes and reservoirs for environmental monitoring
Benefits
Robust design with an oil-free capacitive ceramic measuring cell for long‑term operation
Easy system integration and flexible parameterization via HART communication
Geometry‑independent hydrostatic level measurement, ideal for deep, narrow boreholes and wells
Compliance with international explosion protection certificates, marine approvals and drinking water certifications
Optionally integrated temperature sensor enables temperature‑compensated density correction for high measurement accuracy
Kemira, a global chemicals company, needs accurate monitoring of level and temperature for polymer manufacturing. They use instrumentation with Bluetooth for safe and easy access to process data.
Protolaunch uses Endress+Hauser flowmeters and level sensors at a rocket propulsion test facility in Buckinghamshire to demonstrate the performance of the propulsion systems and components.
