F170

Level Monitor

with high / low alarms and analog outputs

Product description

The F170 is a versatile level indicator with continuous level monitoring. Its primary level indicator function is to display the measured level input with simultaneous level/height and content indication and a dedicated bargraph. For level monitoring, it offers two low and two high level alarm values with ignore function. The F170 has up to 4 outputs which can trigger an acoustic or visual device to monitor the level and an alarm situation.

The F170 level monitor is the first model in the next generation of F-Series level indicators, monitors, and controllers! These four powerful products that not only include the features of our previous F1-level-Series, but also bring a broad range of enhanced capabilities. The new F-Series level indicators take performance, functionality, and reliability to the next level!

Advantages
  • Accurate level Indicator with continuous level monitoring.
  • Robust aluminum or stainless steel 316L field enclosure (IP65, IP67 / Type4X) .
    It is so rugged, a truck can even stand on it!
  • Familiar easy operation with the Fluidwell "Know one, know them all" configuration structure, saving time, cost and aggravation.
  • Very diverse mounting possibilities: walls, pipes, panels or directly onto outdoor sensors.
  • Clear dual line display to show level/height, content, percentage filled, 4-20mA input or alarm values.

Features

  • Level monitoring: four alarm values can be set: low-low, low, high and high-high level alarm.
  • Bargraph according the level/height or content.
  • Red flashing LED backlight in case of an alarm condition.
  • Custom measurement units for level/height and content.
  • 1 level input signal: (0)4 - 20mA (HART transparent).
  • Active, isolated (passive) or loop powered analog output according to the level/height, content or input retransmission.
  • 4 passive transistor or heavy duty, mechanical relay outputs.
  • Full Modbus communication RS485, isolated RS485 or RS232.
  • Plug-and-play USB-C port for simple remote configuration.
  • Easy programming with PC/laptop and free software tool.
  • Basic power supply of 10-27V DC, an isolated 12-24VAC / 12-30VDC or isolated 115-230VAC power supply.
  • Auto backup of all setting.

Applications

  • Level measurement and continuous level monitoring is desired as well as signal re-transmission of the level or serial communication.
  • The F-Series is your first and best choice for field mount indicators in safe and hazardous area applications. Especially in harsh weather conditions like rain, snow, sandy deserts, salty atmospheres and temperatures between -40°C up to +70°C (-40°F up to 158°F).
