levelpro 6100 and pumppro 6150 product launch
 
 
16 Nov 2004
 
 

 
ES&S has officially launched the new series of advanced liquid level sensors for high accuracy water and liquid level measurement. Featuring pressure to volume or flow conversion, LCD display, analogue and digital output, the sensors have applications in water resource, oceanographic and process industries.

levelpro 6100 advanced liquid level sensor
Based on the popular 2100 level sensor, the 6100 uses a piezo-resistive strain gauge pressure sensor to accurately measure pressure in all ranges between 0-5m water and 0-70m water. The 6100 has an integral 4 line LCD display and keypad for easy user configuration. A summary of key features is listed below:

• Averaging function - for tide level monitoring
• Stage to volume conversion – uses standard volume shape to convert to volume
• Stage to flow discharge conversion – uses equation or table
• Selectable units of measure – metres, mm, inches, feet (level); litres, gallons, cubic metres (volume); litres per second, megalitres per day, cubic metres per second (flow discharge)
• User selectable output – 4-20mA, 0-1V or 0-2.5V analogue; SDI-12 or RS232 digital. Analogue and digital outputs are available simultaneously – great for interfacing directly to SCADA RTUs retrofitted to existing monitoring sites.

The 6100 is supplied with removable signal and power cables, 1/4” tube swaging type brass fitting and stainless steel wall mounting bracket. Other pneumatic tube fittings are available to suit your requirements. All sensors are supplied with calibration certificate showing the measured accuracy and calibration curve. Measuring accuracy ±0.05% of full scale over 0-50 °C range or ±5mm for a 10m range sensor.

pumppro 6150 integrated compressor module
For applications where gas bubbler systems using compressed inert gas cannot be employed, the 6150 pumppro is the ideal instrument. Effectively the pumppro is an accessory module for the 6100 levelpro that provides the electro-mechanical components to self generate compressed air. This means no gas bottles, no bubbler regulators or large site shelters. All you need is a 12 V battery and a much smaller site shelter. The pumppro is virtually maintenance free. An in-built Automatic Discharge Valve will expel condensation water ( a bi-product from compressing moist air), and housekeeping functions such as sensor zero and overpressure cutout are integrated and completely automatic.

The 6150 pumppro has all the functions of the 6100 levelpro sensor as well as several other unique to the pumppro. These include a user configurable pump sequence used for fine tuning the instrument to very long or very short bubble tubes.

The 6150 is supplied with removable signal and power cables, 1/4” tube swaging type brass fitting. Other pneumatic tube fittings are available to suit your requirements. All sensors are supplied with calibration certificate showing the measured accuracy and calibration curve. Measuring accuracy ±0.08% of full scale over 0-50 °C range or ±8mm for a 10m range sensor.
