An Integrated Approach
The MCG 8150B/8190A Magnetostrictive Level Probes are highly accurate, continuous measurement devices that are easy to install and
maintain. The compact design allows for the collection and transmission of an impressive amount of data. In addition to measuring two
levels (product and interface or two interfaces), five (5) temperature sensors are embedded in the probe at different levels to provide
average temperature measurement of the product.
Versatility
With rigid probes available in lengths up to 25 feet (7.6 m) and flexible probes in lengths up to 48 feet (13.7 m), the MCG 8150B
probe can be installed in nearly any type of storage or process vessel; aboveground or underground. Mounting options include
a 4” riser or a 7/8” NPT connector. Flanged connections are also available.
Level Measurement and Point Switch...All in One
Because of the probe’s packaging and its high degree of resolution (+/- .001”), the MCG 8150B can provide both level gauging
data and act as a point switch for process vessels or overspill alarms.
Density Calculation
The MCG 8190A is a specialized version of the MCG 8150B, adding the ability to measure the density of the stored product and use
this information to accurately calculate corrected volume. The density measurement is gathered by a pressure sensor mounted
directly to the stainless steel housing of the probe itself. The collected data is then analyzed to provide the most comprehensive
and accurate measurement available.
Proven Technology
The magnetostrictive technology that is employed in the MCG 8150B has been proven to be extremely reliable. The probe is
comprised of a wave guide, one or two floats with permanently-embedded magnets, a motion or stress sensing device, and a
probe housing. Together, these components measure the level of product in a vessel through a simple physical property known
as the Wiedemann Effect.
