CSM_BF-@(R)/BS-1(T)_DS_E_8_2

Electrode Holder

BF-@(R)/BS-1(T)

Complete Lineup for Use in High-temperature,

High-pressure Environments or Where

Exposed to Chemicals

• The BF-1 is ideal for liquids with low specific resistance, such as

wastewater.

•The BF-@(R) is used when a strong mounting is required.

• The BS-1 is used when high-temperature, high-pressure resistant

is required.

• The BS-1T is used when corrosion resistance is required.

Ordering Information

■ Electrode Holders ■ Accessories (Order Separately)

Note: Refer to Installing an Electrode Holder on a Tank under Level

Controller Installation in the Technical Guide for Level

Controllers for information on Level Controller installation.

Refer to PS-

Separately) for dimensions.

Specifications

Note: 1. Two-wire Electrode Holders (R models) have a built-in resistance of 6.8 kΩ. They should be used with the Two-wire 61F Controllers.

2. There must be a sufficient ambient temperature in a high-pressure environment to prevent vapor leakage. Use the Electrode Holder

according to the following pressure-temperature curve.

Refer to Safety Precautions for Electrodes and

Electrode Holders.
