RCT RF Series
RF Admittance Level Transmitter

A Leader In Level Measurement Solutions

The RCT RF smart level transmitter provides remote calibration without having to empty and fill the vessel. Configuration Without Changing Level
Configure the RCT RF quickly and easily before installation or on the vessel without moving the level. Simply key in the calibration data and walk away.

Remote Configuration
No longer is it necessary to sniff for hazardous gasses or to go out in inclement weather to calibrate your level transmitter. Configure the RCT RF from the convenience and comfort of the control room... or anywhere along the two-wire loop. The RCT RF Series can also be configured with the HART Model 275 Communicator or optional AMETEK Drexelbrook PC Software.

ATEX 1249

One Transmitter for All Applications


With RF Admittance technology, one transmitter handles all your applications (Liquids, granulars, slurries, interfaces; cryogenic to 500F, full vacuum to 10,000 PSI)

Easy Calibration Saves Time


Push button calibration is menu-driven through a full 4-digit LCD display that resides integral to the electronic unit. Hand-held communicators are not required for a fast and complete set-up.

Smart Advantages
Major advantages of the RCT RF: Ignores coatings on the sensor Built in tank strapping Choice of output in level, flow, weight or volume Factory precalibration available Choice of digital or 4-20 mA transmission Built-in self diagnostics Integral or remote electronics

Unsurpassed Accuracy
No other RF transmitter matches the accuracy, stability, and repeatability of the RCT RF. This translates into smoother operation and less downtime.

Compatibility with the Future


The standard HART protocol is a proven instrumentation protocol. Over a half million field instruments have been supplied by over 70 instrument manufacturers to process plants all over the world. The RCT RF is also compatible with Allen Bradley PLCs through their Smart Transmitter Interface products.

Each System is available with:

User definable display (percent or engineering units) Easy 2-point calibration Adjustable time delay provides signal damping Meter trim to adjust the output signal to a known plant standard Real-time view of input capacitance values Optional display/keypad for quick and easy setup and local indication
