Overview
The BM26A-8000 is a magnetic level indicator (MLI) for redundant level measurement in liquid applications. It comes in two versions: BM26A-8000-TWIN and BM26A-8000-BI.
The BM26A-8000-TWIN consists of a double measuring chamber with one chamber featuring a flapper indication and the other one – equipped with a level transmitter (TDR guided radar, FMCW radar or displacer) – acting as a bypass chamber. The BM26A-8000-BI features a unique measuring chamber with two compartments, one for the OPTIFLEX 7200 transmitter probe and one for the float moving next to it.
