Introduction to using ultrasonics instead of weighing cylinders.
Portalevel® MAX is the flagship 8th generation handheld ultrasonic liquid level indicator. It is used for inspecting the fire suppression systems contents e.g. for CO2, clean agents like FM200®, NOVEC®1230, Halons, and other liquid-based Halon replacement extinguishants. It is a world-leading alternative to manually weighing cylinders. It uses quick, accurate, reliable, easy-to-use, clean, environmentally-safe ultrasonic technology. It is UL listed, ABS and RINA approved.

Does the Portalevel MAX have any type approval ?

Hi Mariano,

Thankyou for your question, CO2 has a boiling point of -57°C. CO2 is retained in liquid form due to the high pressure of around 58 Bar at room temperature that it is subjected to within the cylinder. It will revert to gas state at a lower pressure.

It looks very convenience to do level check of liquid gas inside cylinders from fixed fire distinguish systems. Could it be used in the tropical or near tropical zones legally?
