The LMT Series of level transmitters is a modular range of field mounted, advanced microprocessor-based electronic transmitters, utilizing multiple sensor technologies. Accurate and reliable measurement\u00a0of liquid level and interface\u00a0are provided in even the most difficult and hazardous\u00a0 industrial environments.<\/div>\n

The LMT200 is based upon the magnetostrictive principle.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. The device electronics generates a low energy current pulse at fixed intervals.
\n2. The electrical pulses create a magnetic field which travels down a specialized wire inside the sensor tube.
\n3. The interaction of the magnetic field around the wire and the magnetic float causes a torsional stress wave to be induced in the wire. This torsion propagates along the wire at a known velocity, from the position of the magnetic float and toward both ends of the wire.
\n4. A patented sensing element placed in the transmitter assembly converts the received mechanical torsion into an electrical return pulse.
\n5. The microprocessor-based electronics measures the elapsed time between the start and return pulses (Time of Flight) and converts it into a position measure-ment which is proportional to the level\u00a0 of the float.<\/p>\n
