Schneider Electric is discontinuing the DTBXXB-Y-IS IS float monitor—a hall-effect remote dial sensor for 9″–96″ applications. Rivio is the modern cellular replacement that connects directly to the cloud.
Affects: DTBXXB-Y-IS · Centron IS float monitor · Hall effect remote dial · 9″–96″ range
DTBXXB-Y-IS
⚠ Float monitors are commonly used in shallow tanks and cisterns where other sensor types can't operate.
When Schneider's cloud goes offline, your DTBXXB units will stop reporting—leaving these specialized applications without visibility.

Note each float monitor's tank type, depth range, and application. Rivio will recommend the right ultrasonic sensor for each—typically matching the 9″–96″ range of the DTBXXB.
Rivio's ultrasonic sensors mount to the top of the tank. No moving parts, no float mechanism to replace, no tank entry. Install in under 2 hours per tank.
Tanks appear on the Rivio live dashboard immediately. Your existing alert thresholds and historical baselines can be recreated in minutes.
Float monitors are often on tanks with no backup monitoring. When the Centron servers go dark, you need Rivio already in place.
