Technical Information
Liquiphant M FTL51C
Vibronic
Point level switch for all kinds of liquids
with high corrosion-resistant coating
Application
The Liquiphant M is a point level switch which can be
used in all liquids
– for temperatures from –50 °C to 150 °C
(up to 230 °C on request)
– for pressures up to 40 bar
– for viscosity up to 10,000 mm2/s
– for densities ≥ 0.5 g/cm3
or ≥ 0.7 g/cm3
,
other settings available on request
– foam detection on request
The reliable function is not affected by flow, turbulence,
bubbles, foam, vibration, solids content or buildup. The
Liquiphant is thus the ideal substitute for float switches.
All the wetted parts of the sensor (process connection,
extension pipe and tuning fork) are coated in enamel or
various synthetic materials, making the point level
switch suitable for applications in very aggressive liquids.
International approvals certify use in hazardous areas.

Application
Point level detection Maximum or minimum detection in tanks or pipes containing all kinds of liquids, including use in hazardous
areas. Particularly suitable for very aggressive liquids that to high level of corrosion protection.
L00-FTL51Cxx-11-05-xx-xx-001
Function and system design
Measuring principle The sensor's fork vibrates at its intrinsic frequency.
This frequency is reduced when covered with liquid. This change in frequency causes the point level switch to
switch.

Switches the load directly into the power supply circuit
via an electronic switch.
Always connect in series with a load!
Check the following:
• The residual current in blocked state
(up to 3.8 mA)
• That for low voltage
– the voltage drop across the load is such that the
minimum terminal voltage at the electronic insert
(19 V)
when blocked is not undershot.
– the voltage drop across the electronics when
switched through is observed (up to 12 V)
• That a relay cannot de-energize with holding power
below 3.8 mA.
If this is the case, a resistor should be
connected parallel to the relay. An RC module is
available under the modification number
MVT2Y1278.
• When selecting the relay, pay attention to the hold-

With the aid of this signal, the fork frequency is constantly
forwarded to the switching unit.

Adjustment In the Liquiphant M modular system, the option of an adjustment is also provided in addition to the electronics
(see feature 60: "Accessories").
There are three types of adjustment:
Standard adjustment (see ordering information for additional options, basic version A)
• Here, two fork parameters are determined to describe the sensor characteristics, indicated in the adjustment
report and provided with the product.
These parameters must be transmitted to the Density Computer FML621.
Special adjustment (see ordering information for additional options, special adjustment, density H2O (K) or
special adjustment, density H2O with 3.1 certificate (L))
• Here, three fork parameters are determined to describe the sensor characteristics, indicated in the adjust-
ment report and provided with the product.
These parameters must be transmitted to the Density Computer FML621.
Greater accuracy is achieved with this type of adjustment (see also "Performance characteristics").
Field adjustment
• During field adjustment, a density value actually determined by the customer is entered and the system is
automatically adjusted to this value (wet adjustment).
