Versatile Liquid Level DetectionThese miniature level switches excel in applications requiring precise point level monitoring of liquids. Whether in industrial automation or water treatment, they deliver accurate results with high repeatability, supporting both horizontal and vertical mounting depending on the tank or pipeline setup.
Robust Construction & Flexible InstallationWith floats designed for atmospheric or pressurized environments up to 10 kg/cm and a rugged build rated IP65/IP68, these switches endure demanding conditions. Options for threaded or flanged mounts and standard stem lengths streamline installation in a range of industrial settings.
Reliable Performance & Simple OperationFeaturing a magnetic reed switch mechanism, the level switches maintain high reliability and operate on single-phase power (up to 220V AC/DC). The absence of a display simplifies use, while the clear NO/NC output configuration integrates easily with control systems.
FAQs of Miniature Level Switches:
Q: How does the float actuation mechanism work in these miniature level switches?
A: The float on the level switch rises or falls with the liquid, actuating a magnetic reed switch within the stem. This operation changes the output state (NO or NC), providing a precise signal for liquid point level detection.
Q: What installation options are available for these switches?
A: Miniature level switches can be installed verticallyeither top or bottom mountedusing threaded or flanged mounts. Custom stem lengths can also be provided to fit specific tank or pipeline requirements.
Q: When should I choose IP65 versus IP68 protection for my level switch?
A: IP65 is suitable for environments with dust and occasional water jets, while IP68 is recommended for continuous submersion applications or harsher wet conditions. The protection level depends on your applications environmental exposure.
Q: Where can these level switches be used effectively?
A: They are well-suited for industrial automation, process control, water treatment facilities, chemical tanks, and pipelines, especially where accurate and repeatable liquid level measurement is essential.
Q: What types of outputs and electrical configurations are supported?
A: These switches offer Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) outputs using a single pole (SPST/SPDT) configuration and can handle supply voltages up to 220V AC/DC.
Q: How does accurate point level detection benefit my process?
A: Reliable point level detection helps prevent overflows, dry running, and ensures precise process control, minimizing risks and optimizing operational efficiency in industrial environments.
