The company\u2019s engineers, working closely with WIKA\u2019s experts, found the ideal solution by customizing the RLT-1000 <span><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.wika.com\/us\/\/products\/level-products\/reed-chain-transmitters-cost-effective-reliability\/\">reed-chain<\/a> <\/span>level sensor.<\/p>\n<p>After reviewing their options with WIKA\u2019s application specialist, the engineers opted for an all-stainless steel design for chemical compatibility and a dual mounted stem for the extreme shock that the farm sprayer\u2019s tank would experience moving through the field. WIKA custom-made sensors with guide tubes that ranged from 1,700 mm to 2,200 mm (70 inches to 86.6 inches) to accommodate their various tanks sizes. The level sensors were mounted through the top of the tanks and supplied with diverse process connections, including flanges to match each tank\u2019s particular requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Other reasons the ag tech company started using WIKA\u2019s level sensor for farm sprayers:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Reputation.<\/strong> The company knows that machine downtime is unacceptable in the ag industry, and prides itself on building the most reliable products in the market. Having a long history with WIKA, and witnessing the quality and robustness of their products, the ag tech company trusted only one partner for this mission-critical application.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Value.<\/strong> The RLT-1000 uses quality components and a proven WIKA design to provide exceptional value to both the manufacturer and end user by eliminating costly warranty expenses and field replacements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Relationship.<\/strong> The company\u2019s engineers have a long relationship with WIKA\u2019s application specialists, who they trust will provide the most reliable and cost-effective solution for the application. Having a sensor expert on the team made implementation quick and easy, saving time to market.<span> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Customer satisfaction.<\/strong> WIKA offers exceptional pre- and post-purchase support on all its products with a dedicated customer service representative. In addition, the ag tech company was already aware of WIKA\u2019s superior service when it comes to ordering, delivery, and customer satisfaction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span>The Ideal Level Sensor for Farm Sprayers<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The RLT-1000 is known for its durability, customizability, output capabilities, and flexibility.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Made of stainless steel or chemical-resistant plastic, this level sensor is ideal for measurement in water, oil, diesel, refrigerants, herbicides\/pesticides, and liquid fertilizers.<\/li>\n<li>The standard lengths of guide tubes range from 150mm to 1,500mm (6 inches to 59 inches), but the RLT-1000 can be custom designed to be even longer.\u00a0The float size, shape (spherical or cylindrical), and material (stainless steel or Buna\/NBR nitrile rubber) can also be customized for each application.<\/li>\n<li>The RLT-1000 offers a resistance output signal in a 3-wire potentiometer circuit or a current output signal of 4 to 20 mA.<\/li>\n<li>Various electrical and process connections (threaded, flange) make it even easier to adapt the RLT-1000 to a particular application.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These features make this level sensor ideal for use in farm sprayers, regardless of their tanks\u2019 size, media, or other specific requirements.<\/p>\n<p>With a wide range of measurement solutions for level, pressure, temperature, flow, and force, WIKA USA is the ideal partner and a one-stop shop for manufacturers of agricultural sprayers and other mobile working machines.
