Electrode Level SwitchGuide to Electrode Level Switch
Reliably Detects Conductive Liquids
Engineered for liquid management across all industrial sectors
Reliable level detection, control, and alarms
for a wide range of conductive liquids.
■Features of Level Switch
- Reliable Detection of Conductive Liquids
Reliably detects conductive liquids using an electrode-based sensing principle, ensuring stable and accurate level detection. - DC Power Compatible for Compact Equipment
Designed for low-voltage DC power, making it ideal for compact equipment and embedded applications. - Easy PLC Integration
Supports direct connection to PLCs and control circuits, enabling simple and flexible system integration. - Long Service Life with Simple Structure
No moving parts and a simple internal structure reduce mechanical wear and support long-term reliable operation. - High Safety and Stable Control Performance
Low-voltage, low-power design minimizes electrical noise while delivering precise and stable control performance.
■Main Applications
- Moisture detection in fuel filters, radiators, and washer tanks
- Water level monitoring and pump control for water and wastewater facilities
- Liquid level control for steel, food, chemical, pharma and semiconductor equipment
- Irrigation and agricultural water-management
- Leakage and flooding detection in roads, tunnels, and underground areas
- Automatic water supply and drainage in buildings
- Boilers, cooling towers, chillers, washers, kitchen equipment, pump trucks
