TAKEX_FL-6BC

φ6.35 PFA chemical-resistant contact liquid level fiber optic unit

  • TAKEX FL-6BC is a φ6.35 PFA-covered fiber optic unit for liquid level detection in water, oil, and chemicals.
  • Its refractive sensing method provides 1 mm or less repeatability with water, −0.1 to +0.5 MPa pressure resistance, and a 2.5 m fiber.
  • Brand TAKEX Takenaka Engineering Co., Ltd.
Features
  • PFA chemical-resistant construction: The fiber covering uses PFA fluoropolymer for liquid level detection in water, oil, and a wide range of chemical liquids.
  • Contact liquid level detection: The sensing tip detects liquid contact through the optical change caused by the difference in refractive index between air and liquid.
  • φ6.35 cylindrical sensing tip: The cylindrical φ6.35 sensing tip can be positioned at the required liquid level in tanks and process equipment.
  • 1 mm or less repeatability: Repeatability is 1 mm or less when detecting water, supporting stable liquid level position detection.
  • Pressure and temperature capability: The unit supports −0.1 to +0.5 MPa pressure resistance and an ambient temperature range of −40 to +70°C.

FAQ

Q1: What is TAKEX FL-6BC?
A: FL-6BC is a φ6.35 PFA-covered chemical-resistant fiber optic unit that uses refractive sensing for liquid level detection.


Q2: What liquids can FL-6BC detect?
A: It can detect water, oil, and a wide range of chemical liquids, including colored and colorless transparent liquids. Sample testing is recommended for highly viscous or turbid liquids.


Q3: How does FL-6BC detect liquid level?
A: It detects the optical change caused by the difference in refractive index between air and liquid when the sensing tip contacts the liquid.


Q4: What is the sensing tip size of FL-6BC?
A: FL-6BC uses a φ6.35 cylindrical sensing tip.


Q5: What is the repeatability of FL-6BC?
A: Repeatability is 1 mm or less when detecting water.


Q6: What is the pressure resistance of FL-6BC?
A: The pressure resistance range is −0.1 to +0.5 MPa.


Q7: What is the ambient temperature range of FL-6BC?
A: The ambient temperature range is −40 to +70°C, provided condensation does not occur inside the PFA tube.


Q8: What are the fiber length and bending requirements of FL-6BC?
A: The fiber length is 2.5 m, with an allowable bending radius of R40 mm. The first 50 mm from the sensing tip must not be bent.


Q9: Does FL-6BC provide NPN or PNP output?
A: No. FL-6BC is a fiber optic sensing unit and requires a compatible TAKEX fiber amplifier for electrical output.
