The Liquiphant FTL33 is a point level switch for universal use in all liquids. It is used
preferably in storage tanks, mixing vessels and pipes, where the internal and
external hygiene requirements are particularly stringent.
Ideal for applications in which float switches or conductive, capacitance and optical
sensors have been used up to now. The Liquiphant FTL33 also works in areas where
these measuring principles are not suitable due to conductivity, buildup, turbulence,
flow conditions or air bubbles.
The Liquiphant FTL33 can be used for process temperatures up to:
• 100 °C (212 °F), CIP-capable
• 150 °C (302 °F), CIP- and SIP-capable
Your benefits
• 3-A and EHEDG certificates
• CIP and SIP cleanability guaranteed up to 150 °C (302 °F)
continuous temperature
• All-metal separation, no plastics in the process
• Robust stainless steel housing, optionally available with M12x1 connector with
IP69 protection (optional)
• External function test with test magnet
• Onsite function check possible thanks to LED indication
• Compact design for easy installation even in confined conditions or hard-to-access
areas

Liquiphant FTL33
Measuring principle
Measuring system
A piezoelectric drive causes the tuning fork of the Liquiphant FTL33 to vibrate at its resonance
frequency. When the tuning fork is immersed in a liquid, its intrinsic frequency changes due to the
change in density of the surrounding medium. The electronics system in the point level switch
monitors the resonance frequency and indicates whether the tuning fork is vibrating in air or is
covered by liquid.
A signal is output via the DC-PNP or AC/DC electrical connection.
The measuring system consists of a Liquiphant FTL33 point level switch, e.g. for connection to
programmable logic controllers (PLC), a mini-contactor or solenoid valve.

Function
3-wire DC-PNP:
Positive voltage signal at the switch output of the electronics (PNP), switching capacity 200 mA
2-wire AC/DC:
Load switching in the power supply line, switching capacity 250 mA
The device has two operating modes: maximum safety (MAX) and minimum safety (MIN).
By choosing the corresponding operating mode, the user ensures that the device also switches in a
safety-oriented manner even in an alarm condition, e.g. if the power supply line is disconnected.
• Maximum safety (MAX)
The device keeps the electronic switch closed as long as the liquid level is below the fork. Sample
application: overfill prevention
• Minimum safety (MIN)
The device keeps the electronic switch closed as long as the fork is immersed in liquid. Sample
application: Dry running protection for pumps
The electronic switch opens if the limit is reached, if a fault occurs or the power fails (quiescent
current principle).

Using a two-channel analysis, function monitoring of the sensor can be implemented in addition to
level monitoring, e.g. per relay switch, PLC, AS-i Bus I/O module, …).
When both outputs are connected, the MIN and MAX outputs assume opposite states when the
device is operating fault-free (XOR). In the event of an alarm condition or a line break, both outputs
are deenergized.

Function test with test
magnet
For the metallic housing cover (IP69), there is no external signaling via LEDs. A connecting
cable with an M12 connector and LED display can be ordered as an accessory → 31.
Carry out a function test while the device is in operation.
Hold the test magnet against the marking on the housing for at least 2 seconds.
‣
This inverts the current switch status, and the yellow LED changes state. When the magnet
is removed, the switching status valid at that time is adopted.
If the test magnet is held against the marking for longer than 30 seconds, the red LED will flash: The
device returns automatically to the current switch status.
The test magnet is not included in the scope of delivery. It can be ordered as an optional
accessory → 29.

CSA C/US General Purpose
The Liquiphant FTL33 was developed for use in hygienic processes. The materials in contact with the
process meet FDA requirements as well as the 3-A Sanitary Standard No. 74-06. Endress+Hauser
confirms this by affixing the 3-A sign to the device.
The following certificate copies can be ordered with the device (optional):

• If cleaning in place (CIP) is required, weld-in adapters that comply with 3-A requirements are
offered. If installed horizontally, ensure that the leakage hole is pointing down. This allows leaks
to be detected as quickly as possible.
• To avoid the risk of contamination, install the device in accordance with the design principles of
EHEDG, Document 37 "Hygienic Design and Application for Sensors" and Document 16 "Hygienic
Pipe Connections".
• Suitable connections and seals must be used in order to guarantee a hygienic design in accordance
with the specifications of 3-A and EHEDG.
• Information on 3-A and EHEDG-approved weld-in adapters can be found in the "Weld-in adapters,
process adapters and flanges" documentation, TI00426F/00.
• The gap-free connections can be cleaned of all residue using sterilization in place (SIP) and
cleaning in place (CIP), which are typical cleaning methods within the industry. Attention must be
paid to the pressure and temperature specifications of the sensor and process connections for CIP
and SIP processes.
