Kayden CLASSIC 800 Series, Switch and Transmitter

Kayden CLASSIC 800 Series, Switch and Transmitter

The CLASSIC 800 Series switch and transmitter offers threaded, flanged,  Tri-Clamp, and retractable packing gland process connection. It is user configurable for flow, level, fluids interface, temperature applications, and is suitable for use in air, gases, water, liquids, and slurries. Models in the Kayden CLASSIC 800 Series have several unique features that make them the world’s most advanced thermal flow and level switch including: temperature mode, 4-20 mA outputs, Modbus, digital temperature compensation, automated self-test diagnostics, and a simple, intuitive user interface.

The patented design of the CLASSIC 800 Series provides the ultimate performance and features package for flow, level, interface, and temperature sensing. It combines precision welded, highly accurate sensors, extremely rugged enclosures, and advanced digital electronics. In addition, these switches / transmitters offer failure resistance inherent in Thermal Dispersion technology with the performance and features usually reserved for much more expensive instrumentation.

Description

The CLASSIC 800 Series features switches and transmitters for flow, level, interface, and temperature process control. Each model has a precision welded, highly accurate stainless steel thermal sensor. The Kayden CLASSIC 800 Series is ideal for liquids, gases, and slurries in clean or dirty processes. Options for process connections include: raised face, RTJ flange, threaded, or retractable packing glands. In addition, all Kayden CLASSIC models feature a rugged flameproof enclosure with blind or lens cover options. Its advanced digital electronics will revolutionize the way you monitor and control your process.
