Advantages
- Can be used with liquids with a specific gravity of 0.8 to 1.2.
- Float position can be set freely.
- It can detect up to about 9m.
Features
- Resistant to adhesion: If there is no adhesion that exceeds weight of float, there will be no effect on operation.
- Easy to set up: Works anywhere on wire. You can freely change float position with just one screwdriver.
- Resistant to waves and currents: A self-holding circuit is added to contact and a balance weight is attached to lower end of the wire, so it is almost unaffected by ripples or currents on liquid surface.
Operating principle
A float integrated with wire moves up and down due to buoyancy as liquid level changes. A magnet at top of wire opens and closes a reed switch built into bottom of terminal box to detect water level.
How to use?
- Mounting position-1:
Please install it away from strong magnetic fields such as motors, transformers, solenoid valves, etc. - Mounting position-2:
Avoid using product in areas with strong currents, such as inlet, outlet, locations that come into direct contact with water, and locations with agitators. - Wiring:
Contact reed switches are voltage-free contacts and cannot be repaired if damaged.
Before turning on power, be sure to check that there are no short circuits, overloads, or incorrect wiring. - Float position adjustment:
Operating position is 20mm from top surface of float. Loosen fixing screw with a screwdriver, move it to desired position, then tighten screw again and secure with nut. Tighten screws to a torque of 0.35 to 0.4Nm.
Wire digs into groove, making it difficult to fall.
