Submersible Level
Transmitter
- Silicon Sensor
 Stainless steel, Silicon piezo-resistive sensor
 Accuracy: <±0.1% FS BFSL (0.06% optional)
 Pressure ranges from 0.5mWG to 100mWG
 Selection of housing & cable materials
 Variety of outputs including mV, Volts and mA

The IMSL has been designed for use in continuous submersion in liquids such as water, oil and other non aggressive
chemicals. The submersible uses the latest piezo-resistive media isolated silicon sensing technology and a stainless
steel diaphragm it offers excellent stability, repeatability and resolution required for use in rivers and reservoir
measurement. Housed within a 316L stainless steel housing, this submersible level transmitter is the ideal product
for reliable and repeatable hydrostatic level measurement. Every device is temperature compensated and calibrated,
supplied with a traceable serial number and calibration certificate. The electronics incorporate a microprocessor
based amplifier, this means there are no adjusting pots and therefore the electronics are very stable.

There are many options available on the IMSL level Suitable for the following applications:
