Float Level Switch · Cargo Level & Temperature Gauging

Class-certified type (DNV register) · technical data sheet not yet verified

Krohne BM70A 5m Ex d Marine — Cargo Level & Temperature Gauging. As a Float Level Switch, it is normally installed at a cargo tank or associated stilling arrangement with signal wiring to cargo monitoring or alarm equipment. In that role, its primary purpose is to provide a discrete or continuous indication of cargo level for operations and overfill protection according to the listed device. A float level switch provides a mechanical level-triggered signal rather than continuous radar or pressure measurement and therefore depends on free float movement and reliable electrical switching. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we can check availability and prices faster; without them we may have to ask first, which can cost a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
