Durable and Versatile ConstructionDesigned with high-quality stainless steel or polypropylene, and protected by either ABS or stainless steel enclosure, the side mounted level switch offers excellent chemical and corrosion resistance. Its IP65 rating makes it suitable for harsh environments in water, oil, and chemical processing tanks, providing reliable performance regardless of application context.
Fast Response and Accurate MeasurementUtilizing a magnetic reed switch mechanism, this level switch detects fluid level changes in under 50 ms with an accuracy of 3 mm. Whether you are automating tank filling or monitoring liquid presence, this swift, precise response minimizes operational delays and enhances process efficiency.
Flexible Installation and CustomizationThe switch supports horizontal, side-flange mounting, with a compact form factor (120 mm x 60 mm x 40 mm) for easy adaptation to various tank designs. Customizable cable length and choice of terminal (screw or flying leads) ensure straightforward integration, while NO/NC contact configuration meets diverse control system requirements.
FAQs of Side Mounted Level Switch:
Q: How is the side mounted level switch installed on a tank?
A: The switch is installed horizontally on the tanks side using a side flange. It is designed for easy mounting, generally requiring simple tools to secure it in place. Ensure that the float is submerged in the target liquid for accurate operation.
Q: What types of fluids are compatible with this level switch?
A: This device is compatible with a broad spectrum of fluids, such as water, fuels, oils, and various chemicals. The choice of float and enclosure material (stainless steel or polypropylene, ABS or SS) ensures compatibility with corrosive and non-corrosive substances alike.
Q: When should the cable length be customized?
A: Customizing the cable length is recommended when the standard 1-meter lead is insufficient due to the distance between the switch and the control panel. Specify your requirements during ordering to ensure proper installation and connection.
Q: What benefits does the magnetically actuated reed switch offer?
A: The magnetic reed switch provides fast, contactless liquid level detection with minimal wear, contributing to high reliability (>100,000 operations). This technology also enables precise switching with a response time under 50 milliseconds, ensuring rapid system feedback.
Q: Where can this level switch be used in industrial applications?
A: It is ideal for water, oil, and chemical tanks in automation systems, liquid level control, and safety monitoring. Its rugged construction, high pressure, and temperature handling make it suitable for industrial, commercial, or process industries.
Q: How does the switch configuration (NO/NC) work?
A: The switch can be set to normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) configurations, allowing you to match the control logic of your system. This adaptability simplifies integration into existing or new automation schemes.
