ATEX floating electrodes

Areas of application

Ex floating electrodes are designed for use only in pits, reservoirs, pump shafts, separator plants for light liquids or similar areas.

It should be noted that Ex floating electrodes can only be used to detect the presence of a layer of a light liquid which is not soluble in water and which is not conductive on a surface of water (or another conductive liquid which has a higher specific density than the respective light liquid) which is sufficiently calm to allow phase formation.

The precondition for proper functioning of the Ex floating electrodes is, namely, that clear separation between the heavy conductive liquid and the lighter non-conductive liquid to be detected is possible in the various loca tions, such as pits, reservoirs, pump shafts, separator plants or similar.
