Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Icon 200C accuracy | ±0.25% std, ±0.125% optional — the tightest tolerance in Icon's level line | Icon Process Controls — Level Sensors, Sentinel Remote Monitoring, Level Displays |
| Icon 300S construction | Fully-welded 316SS, no elastomer diaphragm | Icon Process Controls — Level Sensors, Sentinel Remote Monitoring, Level Displays |
| Icon submersible seal options | FFKM (Kalrez®) | FKM across the 100/200C/TankPro series | Icon Process Controls — Level Sensors, Sentinel Remote Monitoring, Level Displays |
| Icon MLR-70 named application | Explicitly named for "Chemical Sumps" | Icon Process Controls — Level Sensors, Sentinel Remote Monitoring, Level Displays |
The 300S's fully-welded 316SS construction trades the ceramic diaphragm's precision for zero elastomer exposure to the process chemical — the real choice for a plating sump where even a premium Kalrez seal isn't rated for what's actually being dumped in.
A plating chemical sump level sensor sits in whatever the line dumps into it — rinse water, drag-out acid, or a cyanide/chrome waste stream — and Icon's submersible line covers that range from the 200C's ±0.125% precision option down to the 300S's all-welded 316SS body with no elastomer diaphragm at all.
