DescriptionKobold bypass level indicators provide continuous measurement, display and monitoring of liquid levels. The bypass tube is mounted to the vessel side wall; by the principle of communicating vessels the liquid level in the bypass equals the vessel level. A float with embedded circular magnets follows the liquid level inside the bypass tube and transmits it non-contact to an external display or to monitoring devices. A range of indication and monitoring options is available.
ApplicationsBypass level indicators are suitable for continuous level measurement, indication and monitoring of liquids in tanks and vessels across industrial sectors (process, chemical, water and wastewater, HVAC, energy).
