APG Continuous Float Level Transmitter MPX API 18.2

 

 

Certified accuracy for oil storage and transfer. The MPX-R offers a 1"-diameter, stainless steel stem, while the MPX-T uses a 1"-diameter titanium stem for a larger range of chemical compatibility. All models come with required digital temperature sensors and feature large, robust floats that resist fouling. MPX API 18.2 Custody Transfer Magnetostrictive Level Sensors provide the highly accurate and repeatable level and temperature readings necessary for oil storage and transfer from lease tanks.

The MPX Series API 18.2 Custody Transfer Magnetostrictive Level sensors provide the highly accurate and repeatable level and temperature readings necessary for oil storage and transfer from lease tanks. The MPX-R offers a 1”-diameter, stainless steel stem, while the MPX-T uses a 1”-diameter titanium stem for a larger range of chemical compatibility. All models come with required digital temperature sensors in the stem and feature robust floats that resist fouling and buildup.

Modbus Output

The RS-485 Modbus RTU output of the MPX API 18.2 gives you precise level measurements and fully configurable level or volume output that can be accessed with industry standard control protocols.

Built For Hard Work

This liquid level sensor is built to take a beating - designed for high turbidity environments in hazardous locations. It also has several materials options for the stem and floats for maximum chemical compatibility.

Tank Cloud Compatible

With 1"-diameter stems and large, buoyant floats, the MPX API 18.2 is built for the rough and tough environment of oil storage and oil transfer.
