(Save $27.93)Description
The Minicap FTC262 (52005489) is a simple and cost-effective capacitive rope probe designed for point level detection in bulk solids, particularly suitable for aggressive media and applications with heavy build-up.
It is used for detecting levels of light bulk solids such as grain products, flour, milk powder, animal feed, cement, chalk, or gypsum. With its active build-up compensation and mechanically robust design, the probe ensures reliable operation even in demanding silo and hopper conditions.
The rope probe can be shortened for precise adjustment to the measuring point, offering installation flexibility. With a wide range of supply/communication options and international approvals (ATEX, IECEx, FM, CSA, NEPSI, UKEx), the FTC262 provides a reliable solution for safe and efficient level monitoring.
