TORRIX 6S / 6B

TORRIX 6S / 6B

For applications with limited space

TORRIX 6, with its probe diameter of only 6 mm and a float diameter of only 27 mm, is ideal for applications with smaller tanks. Another advantage is that there are no dead zones in the upper and lower areas. The starting point of the measurement is only defined by the size of the float; therefore the entire volume can be measured and used.

  • Length: 100 mm to 1,000 mm
  • Tube diameter: 6 mm
  • Smallest float diameter: 27mm
  • Process temperature up to 125 °C.
  • ATEX and IECEx approval for use in Ex-Zone 0

Application Examples

Below are examples of where the TORRIX is being used successfully

Storage Tanks and Storage Containers

Storage Tanks and Storage Containers

TORRIX is ideally suited for measuring in all non-adhesive liquids and almost all tank geometries. There is no need to adjust the sensor to the liquid or the shape of the tank. Another advantage is that there are no dead zones in the upper and lower areas. The starting point of the measurement is only defined by the size of the float; therefore the entire volume can be measured and used.

Pilot plant and prototype systems

Pilot plant and prototype systems

The TORRIX 6 with his probe diameter of 6 mm and float diameter of 27 mm is ideal for applications in smaller containers. Unlike most sensors, TORRIX measures in the upper and lower region with no dead zone with the threshold point defined only by the float. The TORRIX is ideal in applications where frequent changes of media are needed as it does not require adjustment.
