Robust Construction for Demanding EnvironmentsEngineered with a stainless steel, rust-proof body and corrosion-resistant components, this float sensor ensures reliable performance in harsh conditions. Its hermetically sealed design guards against moisture and chemical ingress, making it maintenance free and suitable for a wide range of industries including water treatment and chemical processing.
Precision Sensing and Easy IntegrationThe sensors high accuracy (1% F.S.) and sub-millimeter resolution enable sensitive and reliable liquid level measurements. With digital NO/NC switch outputs, compatibility with 10-30VDC, and selectable 2-wire or 3-wire interface, integration into existing control or monitoring systems is straightforward, enhancing operational efficiency.
FAQs of Float Type Sensors:
Q: How does the float type sensor detect liquid levels in a tank?
A: This sensor employs a float mechanism connected to a reed switch. As the liquid level changes, the float moves, opening or closing the reed switch to give a digital signal (NO/NC). This method delivers reliable level detection with a rapid response time of less than 1 second.
Q: What types of liquids are compatible with this float sensor?
A: The sensor is designed to work effectively with water, oil, and a broad spectrum of chemicals. Its corrosion-resistant stainless steel housing ensures safe operation in aggressive and non-corrosive liquids alike.
Q: Where can this float type sensor be installed?
A: It can be mounted either vertically or horizontally inside liquid tanks up to 2 meters deep. The rust-proof, IP65-rated enclosure allows installation in both indoor and outdoor environments, offering flexibility across industrial and commercial applications.
Q: What are the benefits of using a reed switch and stainless steel enclosure?
A: The reed switch offers long service life and high reliability due to its non-contact operation, while the stainless steel enclosure provides outstanding resistance to rust and chemicals, ensuring durability and maintenance-free operation.
Q: When should you choose this float sensor for your system?
A: Select this sensor when you require accurate, high-resolution (1 mm) liquid level measurement in demanding environments, minimal power consumption, and compatibility with a digital interface for control or monitoring systems.
Q: What is involved in the installation process of the float sensor?
A: Installation is straightforward: mount the sensor vertically or horizontally as needed, connect the electrical output (PVC cable or terminal block) to your monitoring system, and ensure the voltage supply is within 10-30VDC. The sensor supports both 2-wire and 3-wire configurations.
