Product DescriptionProduct DescriptionEndress+Hauser Minicap FTC260 Capacitive Level DetectorThe Endress+Hauser Minicap FTC260 Capacitive Level Detector is a robust, non-contact point-level sensor designed for reliable detection of liquids, solids, and slurries in industrial environments. Engineered for versatility, the FTC260 combines advanced capacitance technology with durable materials to deliver accurate, maintenance-free performance across diverse applications. Whether monitoring tank levels in chemical plants, detecting bulk solids in silos, or ensuring overfill protection in hazardous zones, this device stands as a benchmark for precision and durability.Advanced Capacitance TechnologyThe FTC260 operates on a dielectric change principle, measuring variations in capacitance when the target medium comes into proximity with the probe. This non-invasive method eliminates direct contact with the process media, minimizing wear and contamination risks. The sensor's adjustable sensitivity allows customization for media with varying dielectric constants, from water (high dielectric) to hydrocarbons (low dielectric), ensuring reliable detection even in challenging conditions. With response times as fast as 0.15 seconds, the FTC260 provides rapid alerts for critical level thresholds, reducing downtime and enhancing process safety.Rugged Design for Demanding EnvironmentsBuilt to withstand harsh industrial conditions, the FTC260 features a robust stainless steel (316L) probe and a corrosion-resistant housing rated IP66/NEMA 4X as standard, with optional IP68 protection for submerged installations. The device tolerates extreme temperatures (-40°C to +150°C) and pressures (-1 bar to +16 bar), making it suitable for aggressive chemicals, high-temperature liquids, and abrasive solids. Optional PTFE-coated probes further enhance chemical compatibility, while hygienic designs (e.g., Tri-Clamp fittings) meet FDA and EHEDG standards for food, pharmaceutical, and biotech applications.Versatile Output and IntegrationThe FTC260 supports multiple output configurations to align with control system requirements:2-wire 4–20 mA: Ideal for loop-powered systems in remote or hazardous areas.3-wire PNP/NPN transistor outputs: Direct switching for alarms, pumps, or valves. With dual-voltage compatibility (10–30 VDC for 2-wire; 18–30 VDC for 3-wire), the device integrates seamlessly into PLCs, SCADA systems, and standalone control circuits. Optional HART? communication enables remote diagnostics and configuration adjustments, streamlining maintenance workflows.Global Certifications and Safety ComplianceEngineered for safety-critical environments, the FTC260 holds ATEX, IECEx, FM, and CSA certifications for use in Zones 0/1/2 (gas) and 20/21/22 (dust). It also meets SIL 2 functional safety standards, ensuring compliance in hazardous applications such as oil refineries, paint manufacturing, and grain storage facilities. For hygienic industries, approvals like FDA, USDA, and EHEDG make it suitable for direct food contact and sterile processes.Applications Across IndustriesThe FTC260's adaptability spans countless sectors:Chemical Processing: Detecting corrosive acids, solvents, and resins in storage tanks.Water/Wastewater: Monitoring sump levels, clarifiers, and effluent tanks.Food & Beverage: Ensuring accurate fill levels in syrups, edible oils, and powder silos.Pharmaceuticals: High-purity level detection in reactors and ingredient hoppers.Oil & Gas: Overfill protection for fuel tanks and separators.Bulk Solids Handling: Reliable detection of cement, plastics granules, and minerals.Ease of Installation and MaintenanceDesigned for plug-and-play efficiency, the FTC260 requires minimal setup. Adjustable mounting options—including threaded (G1", NPT), flanged (ANSI/DIN), and hygienic connections—accommodate diverse vessel designs. The sensor's self-monitoring diagnostics flag faults, signal damping issues, or probe contamination, enabling proactive maintenance. With no moving parts, the FTC260 eliminates mechanical wear, reducing long-term servicing costs.SpecificationEndress+Hauser Minicap FTC260 Capacitive Level DetectorParameterSpecificationMeasuring principleCapacitive SolidCharacteristic / ApplicationCompact rod probe with build-up compensationSpecialitiesFDA-listed materialSupply / Communication10,8 ... 45V DC, DC-PNP 3-wire20 ... 253V AC, or20 ... 55V DC, Relay outputAmbient temperature-40°C...+70 °C(-40°F...+158°F)Process temperature-40°C ...+120°C(-40°F ...+248°F)Process pressure / max. overpressure limit-1 ... 25 bar(-14.5 ... 360 psi)Main wetted partsPPS = Polyphenylene sulphide(glass fibre content approx. 40%)Process connectionR1"NPT1"Sensor length140 mm (5.51")CommunicationPNP transistor outputRelay output (potential-freechange-over contact / SPDT)Certificates / ApprovalsATEX , IEC Ex, FM, CSA, NEPSI, UK ExCompany ProfileCompany ProfileKeRul (WeiFang) Automation Equipment Co., Ltd. is speciallzed in industrialautomation instrument development, production and sales, technical servicesand supporting equipment supply of specialized companies, The mainproducts are fow meters, level meters, temperature meters, pressuremeters, electrical meters, thermal meters, programmable controller(PLC), Dcs distributed control system, eight series of more than 1,000specifcations. its products and technologies are widely used in electrlcpower, metallurgy, petrochemical, environ. mental protection, plastics,food,l printing, tobacco, textile, dyeing and other fields.Our ServiceOEM / ODM servicesTo meet the user diversified requirement, Holykell have established a set of customer service and technical support system with OEM / ODM order as the center, and responded and Handle the customer's requirements in a timely manner to ensure accurate delivery time and product quality.Order servicesFastest reply:Professional sales engineers 7/24 online servicesPayment terms:T/T ,Western union, Paypal, Credit Card, L/C othersFast delivery: within 24 hours release the cargo (normal spec.), Customized 7-12 days after payment .
