The AMETEK BW Controls 6013GPNINIT6B is supplied as a gland plug and assembly. It is a Series 6012 ice-free electrode or gland-plug assembly from AMETEK BW Controls, a probe fitting used with conductivity-based level controls to provide a reliable sensing point in tanks subject to fouling, ice, or buildup.

BW Controls developed the ice-free electrode design to keep a conductivity probe's sensing tip clear of ice or material buildup that could otherwise cause a false level reading, a known failure mode for simple probe electrodes in outdoor or cold-process tanks. The Series 6012 gland-plug assembly provides the mechanical fitting that holds the electrode in the tank wall or nozzle, with options such as adjustable insertion length and choice of wetted material, including PVC and fluoropolymer.

Key Features and Specifications:

• Manufactured by AMETEK BW Controls
• Identified by AMETEK part number 6013GPNINIT6B

The 6013GPNINIT6B is typically ordered as a replacement gland-plug or electrode assembly matched to the original insertion length and wetted material, for use with an existing BW Controls conductivity level-control system. Ice-free and adjustable-gland variants are commonly specified for outdoor tanks or vessels prone to probe fouling.
