The output of this product is a serial character-based protocol, using RS485 wires.
The integral graphic display and keypad are also included, while the sensor material used by the manufacturer is PVDF, providing an excellent solution in the presence of highly aggressive chemicals. The input power is between 10.8 and 33VDC, while the item supports USB connection as well, which allows a configuration of the system, providing local monitoring and firmware upgrades. This item is often regarded as the perfect solution for remote monitoring applications, especially when the level meter interfaces an external model.
