LPT-15 Submersible Level Transmitter

Suitable for measuring the liquid level in open water tanks and containers. This product features an IP68 protection rating, allowing it to be continuously submerged in water. It operates based on the formula P = ρgh, using pressure measurement to determine the corresponding liquid level value, and outputs a 4-20mA signal—enabling accurate measurement, display, or even remote monitoring of the liquid level. Key features of this product include:
● Integrated design with excellent sealing performance
● Multiple output signals available
● Supports HART protocol (please specify when ordering)
●Isolated Circuit Design
● Dedicated gas-conducting cable

Submersible Pressure Transmitter

Product Description

Product Overview Product overview

The LPT-15 series submersible level transmitters are designed based on the principle that pressure is directly proportional to liquid level height. The calculation formula is P = ρgh (where ρ represents density, and g—the gravitational acceleration—is a known constant), clearly demonstrating that liquid level and the pressure generated by the liquid column maintain a direct proportional relationship. Essentially, this product line consists of standard pressure transmitters that have undergone waterproof sealing treatment. After the measured liquid level data is processed through circuitry, it is output as either a 4–20mA signal or a Modbus RTU RS-485 communication signal, enabling seamless data acquisition, display, and control by downstream systems. Thanks to their outstanding reliability, flexibility, and versatility, these transmitters are widely used in industrial applications such as water supply, heating systems, oil production, chemical processing, metallurgy, power generation, and hydrological monitoring—providing precise and dependable liquid level measurement and control in real-world process environments.

Installation Requirements INSTALLATION

1. The pressure transmitter can be directly installed on the pipe component to be measured. For ease of installation and maintenance, it is recommended to install a shut-off valve between the pipe component and the pressure transmitter. In environments with significant vibration or shock, a flexible hose can be connected to the pressure transmitter’s fitting to achieve mechanical decoupling.
2. A sealing ring should be installed between the pressure transmitter connector and the pipe fitting or shut-off valve. For flush-head pressure transmitters, the internal thread depth of the pipe fitting or shut-off valve must exceed 25 mm.
3. In general, the pressure transmitter should be installed vertically facing upward relative to the horizontal plane. During installation, use a wrench to tighten the transmitter by turning the hexagonal nut at its base—avoid directly twisting the upper part of the transmitter.
Note:
1. Do not poke the pressure port with sharp or hard objects, as this may damage the sensor’s pressure diaphragm. Since the pressure diaphragm is permanently integrated with the housing, it will become irreparable if damaged. Additionally, product quality issues caused by improper use—such as accidental pressing of the diaphragm, static overloading from particulate-containing media, or dynamic pressure surges—are not covered under our warranty. Therefore, users are strongly advised to take extra care in protecting the diaphragm during both installation and operation.
2. For areas prone to frequent lightning strikes, it is recommended to install lightning protection devices along the lines.
