General Y/17B6 P10 Series

Specifications Pneumatic Buoyancy Transmitter

GS 02C01E01-00EN

Model Y/17B6 Pneumatic Buoyant Transmitters

measure liquid level, interface level or liquid density
by sensing the buoyant force exerted by a displacer
element. The instruments transmit a proportional 20 to
100 kPa, signal to remote pneumatic receivers.

 FEATURES
● Maintenance-Free Operation.
● High Performance Force-Balance Operation.
● Time-Proven Pneumatic Differential Pressure
Transmitter Design.
