Application

The intrinsically safe or general purpose level switch package provides high or low liquid level detection with one relay or reed switch output, and a compact junction box for wiring termination. Available in three level sensor technologies, choose the sensor type based upon your application media and classification. This PP or PVDF level switch package is selected for bulk storage, IBC or drum, and neutralization tank applications, connected to a PLC or relay controller.

Features

Rugged PP or PVDF construction for use with corrosive liquids

Available in intrinsically safe and general purpose classifications

60VA relay or 15VA dry contact switches selectable NO or NC via wiring

Offered in three sensing technologies for broad application coverage

PP enclosure rated NEMA 4X with swivel base for conduit alignment
