Triflex LNI 250 Launched By Fluidwell Instruments

Adequate level measurement of conductive products inside a tank, like humid pet food, has been very difficult with highly sensitive materials, harsh environments (pressurized, abrasive, hot, corrosive) or complicated tanks. The resulting reliability issues have a negative effect on costs and downtime. To solve these problems, Fluidwell Instruments, a division of Fluidwell, launches an extension of its Triflex level detection sensors family: The LNI 250, a “Field Time Control” (FTC) based level detection sensor, which uniquely measures with great reliability from the outside of a non-metallic tank.
