Transmitter Housing

Protective enclosure for liquid level sensor transmitters in industrial applications

Component Specifications

Definition
A precision-engineered housing designed to protect the electronic components of a liquid level sensor transmitter from environmental factors such as moisture, dust, chemicals, and mechanical impacts. It ensures reliable signal transmission and maintains sensor calibration in harsh industrial environments.
Working Principle
Provides physical protection and environmental sealing for transmitter electronics while allowing proper signal transmission through appropriate cable glands and connectors. Maintains electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and thermal management for stable operation.
Materials
316L stainless steel (marine grade), aluminum alloy (6061-T6), or engineered plastics (PEEK, PVDF) depending on application requirements. IP67/IP68 rated sealing materials (EPDM, Viton gaskets).
Technical Parameters
  • Weight 0.5-2.5 kg
  • Mounting 2" NPT / G1/2" thread
  • Dimensions Varies by model (typically 80-150mm diameter)
  • Cable Entry M20x1.5 / PG13.5

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between IP67 and IP68 rated transmitter housings?

IP67 housings are dust-tight and can withstand temporary immersion in water (1 meter for 30 minutes), while IP68 housings are suitable for continuous immersion under specified conditions (typically deeper/longer immersion as specified by manufacturer).

Can transmitter housings be used in explosive atmospheres?

Yes, when certified with appropriate explosion-proof ratings (ATEX, IECEx) and constructed with flameproof or intrinsically safe designs for specific hazardous area classifications.

How often should transmitter housing seals be replaced?

Gaskets and seals should be inspected annually and replaced every 2-3 years or according to manufacturer recommendations, depending on environmental exposure and temperature cycling.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
