SE-LX10 is a flameproof magnetostrictive level transmitter that straps onto the outside of a magnetic level indicator or bypass chamber. It reads the float already inside the chamber over 200–8000 mm and sends 2-wire 4–20 mA (HART on request), 4-wire 4–20 mA / 0–10 V or RS485, with a local display.
Strapped to the outside of a magnetic flap level gauge or bypass chamber; flameproof housing with local display, for remote level transmission in hazardous areas such as petroleum and chemical plants. Part number prefix SE marks the explosion-proof version; the full ordering code is explained below and in the datasheet.
