Model IL-F
Model IL-F tank sensor with integrated flushing system. Flushing water injected through 3/8″ pipe fitting clears sensor head against product buildup. Designed for continuous crystallization applications where periodic flushing maintains measurement accuracy.
Continuous Measurement in High-Buildup Applications
The Model IL-F extends the standard Model IL tank sensor with an integrated flushing system designed for applications where heavy product buildup occurs during operation. The flushing capability enables periodic cleaning of the sensor head without removing the sensor from the process—maintaining measurement accuracy in demanding continuous crystallization and high-viscosity applications.
How the flushing system works:
Flushing water is injected through a dedicated 3/8″ pipe connection, clearing product accumulation from the sensor head surfaces. Flushing can be performed manually or automated through process control systems—typically activated during batch transitions, scheduled intervals, or when measurement indicates fouling has occurred.
- Continuous vacuum pan crystallizers
- High-viscosity molasses processing
- Crystallization with heavy sugar buildup
- Long-duration batch processes with limited cleaning windows
- Applications where sensor removal for cleaning is impractical
- Measurement range (Brix / solids): 0-99%,
Factory configured to specific TS or Density range by customer specification - Accuracy & repeatability:
+/- 0.01 % TS - Sensitivity:
+/-0.001% TS - Measuring resolution:
0.01% TS - Outputs:TS % & Temperature,
4 – 20 mA, Active and Isolated. Max load 750 Ohm. - Process conditions:
- Ph= 3-11
- Temperature= 0 – 140 C
- Pressure: recommended min 1.5 bar to avoid free air
- Sensor body: Aisi 316L.
The sensor can be installed directly in the vessel wall or top nozzle and does not require a bypass or recirculation loop.
Control the process where it happens — inside the tank, in real time.
3-year warranty
A full, industry-leading warranty reflecting confidence in long-term performance.
Stable signal despite coating and buildup
Maintains a stable measurement signal even when product coating or buildup is part of normal operation
Wide Measurement Range
Accurate measurement from low concentrations to high-solids processes — one sensor covers your full production spectrum.
”Before the IL-F, we had to pull the sensor for cleaning every few days during continuous crystallization runs. Now the flushing cycle handles it automatically, and we haven’t lost measurement accuracy to buildup since installing it.”
