Sanitary Float Level Switch

A polypropylene float makes these switches buoyant even in viscous liquids.

Sanitary float level switch.

Float level switches are sensors with an electrical contact output at a specific liquid level. We offer level control and limit switching for most media from potable water to sewage alkalies and acids or free flowing powdered bulk or granular solids. When water rises to a preset level in the sump basin the switch turns on and the pump starts. 316 ss single point ultrasonic liquid level switch lvsw 701 switch.

The switch employs proven ultrasonic technology and solid state electronics. The float switch is used to close or open a circuit that is carrying small amount of current typically at low voltage and amperage. Level switches provide accurate and reliable remote liquid level indication for hygienic brewery food and beverage and biopharm processes. The lvsw 701 series liquid level switch is a direct replacement for mechanical float type devices.

Applications include level control valve control deaerators condensate tanks oil level control drip legs and boilers. 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. Our side mount single point level switches for water tanks work in any water environment where float switches or other level controls are used. When the water is drained down the switch turns off and the pump stops.

It can be mounted externally or internally in a water storage tank. A sanitary sensor is a device which measures temperature flow or pressure in an environment where products will be for human consumption. Learn more about single point level switches. As the liquid level moves up and down in the tank the float s magnet activates the internal reed switch at the designed point.

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. 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. Can be used as a high alarm or low alarm for water. Whether the measurement medium be liquid or solid.

A few models are designed for the automation of pumps specifically filling and draining of tanks wells and reservoirs. The switch can be designed to turn on or turn off when activated.
