Sanitary float level switch.

Level switches are the most frequent level instrumentation. The switch employs proven ultrasonic technology and solid state electronics. Float level switches are sensors with an electrical contact output at a specific liquid level. Can be used as a high alarm or low alarm for water.

When water rises to a preset level in the sump basin the switch turns on and the pump starts. The switch can be designed to turn on or turn off when activated. Single point level switches are available in a vast range of sizes mountings materials and sensing technologies from mechanical to no moving parts which include float level sensors and switches electro optic level switches capacitive level sensors and switches and ultrasonic level sensors. In typical industrial applications measurements of parameters such as temperature flow level or pressure simply involve finding a device with the right specifications that is designed to provide reasonable durability and a satisfactory life in its.

The lvsw 701 series liquid level switch is a direct replacement for mechanical float type devices. It can be mounted externally or internally in a water storage tank. Sanitary level switches certified by 3 a and ehedg european hygienic engineering and design group to meet sanitary design standards these switches detect levels of air foam liquid and solids in tanks and pipelines. Applications include level control valve control deaerators condensate tanks oil level control drip legs and boilers.

Sump and sewage float switches have a float that raises and lowers depending on the water level in the sump basin to automatically control switch operation. Gems sensors single point level switches are ideal for reliable and accurate tank level detection. As the liquid level moves up and down in the tank the float s magnet activates the internal reed switch at the designed point. The float switch is used to close or open a circuit that is carrying small amount of current typically at low voltage and amperage.

When the water is drained down the switch turns off and the pump stops. Level switches provide accurate and reliable remote liquid level indication for hygienic brewery food and beverage and biopharm processes. A few models are designed for the automation of pumps specifically filling and draining of tanks wells and reservoirs. A sanitary sensor is a device which measures temperature flow or pressure in an environment where products will be for human consumption.

Our side mount single point level switches for water tanks work in any water environment where float switches or other level controls are used. A polypropylene float makes these switches buoyant even in viscous liquids.
