Endress+Hauser Waterpilot FMX167

Buy online your Endress+Hauser Waterpilot FMX167 from our US e-store Cnc-shopping USA, specialist in CNC machine-tools spare parts.

The Endress+Hauser FMX167 is a submersible hydrostatic level transmitter designed for continuous liquid level measurement in industrial tanks, wells, reservoirs, and pumping stations. Commonly integrated with PLC and SCADA systems, it provides reliable level monitoring for pump control, inventory management, and alarm functions. It is an ideal replacement transmitter for water treatment facilities, wastewater systems, and industrial utilities supporting CNC production environments.

Designed for continuous immersion, the FMX167 measures hydrostatic pressure to accurately determine liquid level with excellent repeatability, even under fluctuating process conditions. It is widely used in storage tanks, sumps, lift stations, cooling water systems, process water tanks, and neutralization pits where precise level measurement is essential and conventional float switches do not provide sufficient accuracy.

The FMX167 is available with ceramic measuring cells to suit different applications. The 22 mm diameter version is intended for standard industrial and potable water applications, the 42 mm version is designed for wastewater installations, and the 29 mm version is optimized for seawater applications. Its compact, sealed construction makes it well suited for confined spaces and deep wells where top-mounted level instruments cannot be installed.

Operating from a 10 to 30 VDC power supply, the transmitter provides a standard 4–20 mA analog output for easy integration with industrial PLCs, pump controllers, and building automation systems. It offers a reference accuracy of ±0.2%, long-term stability of ±0.1% of URL per year, and supports measuring ranges up to 40 bar (600 psi). Depending on the model, the process and ambient temperature range extends from -10°C to +70°C, while the seawater version operates from 0°C to +50°C.

The FMX167 carries numerous industrial certifications, including ATEX, FM, CSA, NSF, KTW, ACS, GL, and ABS, making it suitable for hazardous areas, potable water systems, and marine applications. Manufactured in France, it is a professional-grade instrument designed for long-term industrial service. The recommended successor model is the Endress+Hauser FMX21 with analog output.

Ready to replace your defective Endress+Hauser FMX167 Submersible Hydrostatic Level Transmitter, this unit helps restore reliable level measurement after probe damage, cable failure, or signal drift. For a direct replacement, always verify the original measuring range, cable length, and PLC scaling to ensure seamless installation without modifying the control system.

Each transmitter can be supplied as a fully tested unit, inspected by experienced engineers on dedicated instrumentation test benches to verify signal stability and overall performance before shipment. Supplied with a warranty, the FMX167 is carefully packaged for safe international transportation. CNC-Shopping also offers repair services, exchange programs, and sourcing solutions for obsolete Endress+Hauser instrumentation, helping maintenance teams minimize downtime and extend the service life of legacy industrial installations.

Frequently asked questions about FMX167:

How do I confirm the FMX167 will replace my existing probe?
Match the measuring range, cable length and mounting accessories to the installed device, then confirm the control system scaling on the analog input. If those parameters align, the FMX167 is typically a straightforward drop-in replacement.

Is the FMX167 suitable for coolant or process water tanks in CNC lines?
It is commonly used for water-based fluids found in industrial utilities and process tanks. Always verify chemical compatibility of the wetted parts with your specific medium before replacement.

What integration is typical with plant control systems?
The probe is generally wired to standard analog input cards on PLCs or pump controllers used for level control, alarming and pump staging. Keep existing setpoints and scaling consistent to minimize commissioning time.

Can Cnc-shopping support refurbished or exchange options for this model?
Yes, depending on sourcing and condition, you can request a tested unit, refurbished unit or an exchange service to speed up turnaround while managing budget and downtime risk.

What shipping lead time should I expect?
Typical handling allows shipment within 3 days subject to availability, with protective packaging suitable for industrial MRO logistics and worldwide shipping through trusted carriers.
