Level Switches

Level Switches are sensors with an electrical contact output at a specific liquid, powder or bulk level. Capacitive, conductive, diaphragm, displacer, float, inductive, optical, paddle, vibrating rod, tilt, and tuning fork models are the different types of level switches available.

 
 
 
 

Capacitive

Capacitive sensors with an electrical contact output at a specific liquid, powder, or bulk level.

  • Electronics provide highly sensitive measurement detection (requires less than a 1 picofarad shift from ambient)
  • State of the art technology ignores material build-up on the vessel sidewall or along the probe assembly
 
 
Series CLS2 Capacitive Level
Switch
 
Powder, Bulk, or Liquids, Auto-Calibration
 
  • Automatic Calibration: No need to turn calibration pots, just push the calibration button. The CLS2 even has an external magnet to activate the calibration without having to open the enclosure.
  • Universal Power Supply: One model works from 12 to 240 VAC/DC without any jumpers or settings

  • Excellent for applications with viscous or dirty liquids
 
 
Series 195 Two Stage Top Mount
Displacer Type Level Control
 
Fixed or Adjustable Deadband,
For Pumps or Alarms
 
  • Work on the principle that submerged solids weigh less in liquids, and as the liquid level rises and their weight decreases, the tension on the spring by which they are suspended is decreased.
  • Because they work on a different principle than float type liquid level controls, displacers are not affected by turbulence or pressure, and are excellent for applications with viscous or dirty liquids.
