Field of application

The economical Soliswitch FTE30 is a paddle switch for point level detection in bulk materials. Its robust polymer housing and compact design makes it an ideal sensor for full, empty and demand alarm in applications with bulk solids. The optimized materials make the unit outstandingly robust and therefore suitable for use in dust explosive areas.

Process connections: G 1½", PBT; G 1½", 1.4305; Reinforced shaft G 1½", 1.4305
Sensor length: Different standard lengths between 100 mm (4") and 600 mm (24"), additional rope length of 2,000 mm (80") (can be shortened)
Temperature: -20 to +80 °C (-4 to +170 °F)
Pressure: 0.5 to 1.8 bar (7 to 25 psi)

Benefits

Reliable and economical paddle switch
Highest safety standard
Diverse instrument designs for use under different application conditions
