MTS Systems Corp., Sensors Division announces that production of the Level Plus® model MG liquid-level transmitter with Foundation Fieldbus protocol will start in April 2009. The Foundation Fieldbus protocol will be the third protocol offered by the model MG digital level transmitter, which also includes current production of Modbus and the ASCII based proprietary DDA protocols...
MTS Systems Corp., Sensors Division announced today at Interphex that it has increased the maximum order length of the Level Plus® model MG level transmitter to 866 in. (22,000 mm) which is approximately 20% longer than the previous available length. Every liquid-level transmitter built by MTS is customized for a specific tank’s order length and process opening, and unlike other technologies, the increase in order length does not affect the accuracy of the transmitter which provides maximum...
MTS Systems Corp., Sensors Division has received CRN Canadian Registration Number) approval from all Canadian jurisdictions for their Level Plus® liquid-level transmitters. CRN identifies that the design of a boiler, pressure vessel, or, in this case, a fitting has been accepted and registered for use in that jurisdiction...
MTS Systems Corp., Sensors Division’s Temposonics® linear-position sensors are instrumental in improving the filling process for facilities that package a wide variety of products. Where a packaging facility once required a complicated, bulky and costly combination scale to switch back and forth between various products during packaging cycles...
MTS Systems Corp., Sensors Division’s Temposonics® R-Series linear-position sensors and Level-Plus® M-Series transmitters are being incorporated into automation and control applications in the food and beverage industry due to high reliability, superior accuracy, and compatibility with smart sensor networks such as DeviceNet...
MTS Systems Corp. Sensors Division is providing its MG Level Plus liquid-level transmitters to Truman Arnold Companies (TAC) of Caddo Mills, Texas, to measure and monitor its daily shipments of more than one million gallons of petroleum. When TAC management decided to implement a wireless solution that would allow them to monitor the shipments remotely while maintaining accuracy, they chose a method that combined MTS’ MG transmitters with Siemens Energy & Automation’s wireless control...
MTS Systems Corp. Sensors Division’s M-Series Level Plus® liquid-level transmitters are now being used in sump applications for numerous process industries such as Pharmaceutical, hemical, Petrochemical and Oil & Gas. The M-Series transmitters provide accurate and continuous measurement that allows for more efficient removal and transportation of waste only when the tank is full by detecting the liquid level instead of the foam level.
