A Side Mounted Magnetic Level Indicator with Transmitter is an advanced level measurement solution that combines the reliability of visual level indication with the convenience of continuous remote level monitoring. Designed for tanks, vessels, reactors, and storage systems, the instrument provides both local level indication and an electronic output signal for integration with PLC, DCS, SCADA, and other process control systems.
The system operates on the principle of magnetic coupling. A float containing a permanent magnet moves inside a chamber according to the liquid level. This movement is magnetically transferred to an external indicator for visual level display and simultaneously detected by a transmitter mounted along the chamber. The transmitter converts the liquid level into a standard output signal such as 4–20 mA, enabling real-time monitoring and control from remote locations.
Side Mounted Magnetic Level Indicators with Transmitters are widely used in chemical plants, refineries, oil & gas facilities, pharmaceutical industries, power plants, water treatment systems, and other industrial applications where accurate level measurement and automation are essential.
