1. Description The BM 26A/BM26B/BM26G is a simple, rugged instrument designed to indicate level or interface of liquid. It is a totally metal design, with optional level transmitter and limit switch for alarming. It indicates level using a float magnetically coupled to an index or a column of rotating flaps. It is ideal for aggressive media stored in tanks when the PTFE lining option is used.

It is widely used in petrochemical, chemical, metal, power, food, pharmaceutical, paper industry for level

and interface measurement.

2. Operating principle The BM 26 operates on the principle of communicating tubes. The measuring tube is connected as a side vessel to the tank so that the same conditions are obtained in the tube as those in the tank.

The float is equipped with a system of permanent magnets to transmit measured value to the local indicator. The magnet system of the float activates the magnetic flaps according to the liquid level, or a movable follower magnet in the indicating section of the indicator. The column of reversed yellow magnetic flaps, or the vertical position of the follower magnet, is the indication of the liquid level.

10. BM26A float selection

The floats of BM26A consist of standard and special design.

10.1 Standard float

The indicator should be installed according to the X value

showed in below picture, which is the distance between

the magnet and center line of bottom flange.

Advantage:

The standard float can be used interchangeably. If the

density changed, adjust the indicator position according to X value.

Serial production with some inventory

Reliable and stable measurement

Note: compared with the special float, there is a difference between

the real level and the rotated flapper, but the indicated value is correct.

Suggest to choose the standard float. BM26A standard float

10.2 Special float

The zero position of indicator is exactly the same with centerline of the bottom flange, no difference between the

real level and the rotated flapper, as below picture. The special float is named as T type.

Advantage:

No difference between the real level and rotated flapper,

the same with glass level gauge.

Note:

Adjust the weight of the float to keep the real level the same

with the magnet. Different density with different float weight.

The float is not able to exchange, without serial production.

The liquid density must be accurate.

15. level transmitter

15.1 Principle In addition to the local indicator, the BM 26 can be equipped with the ER analog transmitter system. This transmitter consists of a tube that clamped onto the measuring tube and with reed and resistor chain inside, a housing with converter inside to provide the current output. The moveable float will activate different reeds when level changing, also provide different resistance value and then convert to 4…20mA current output.

For non-Ex application, ER transmitter provide 4…20 mA current output directly.

For Exd application, choose the explosive-proof transmitter housing with marking Ex d IIC T3-T6.

For Exi application, please connect suitable related apparatus to the transmitter. Ex marking :ExiaIICT3-T6.
