Field of application
Solicap FTI56 is a fully/partly insulated and robust rope probe for point level detection of fine-grained to coarse-grained bulk solids. It offers maximum reliability and is suited for a wide range of applications thanks to numerous certificates and approvals. Due to its robust construction, it can also be used to provide accurate measurements in applications with very high tensile loads up to 60kN.
For applications with very high tensile loads up to 60kN. Fieldgate and Solicap represent a solution for material provisioning and logistical optimization (inventory control).

Benefits
Extremely robust design for harsh process conditionsCost savings thanks to easy and fast commissioning as calibration is performed at the press of a button Universal application thanks to wide range of certificates and approvalsTwo-stage overvoltage protection against static discharges from the siloIncreased safety due to permanent automatic monitoring of electronicsReduction in storage costs thanks to easy-to-shorten rod model (for partial insulation) and rope model (for partial and full insulation)
