Liquid Level Sensors - Hermetic Switch
Description
Hermetic Switch, Inc.announces a new series of liquid level sensors, also known as float sensors or fluid level sensors.
The new PRX+1660 series represents a new product line for the company, which enables Hermetic to address the need for reliable, robust, and reasonably priced sensors for liquid level monitoring applications in appliance, automotive, control, household, industrial, municipal, petrochemical, power generation, processing, and recreational markets.
These sensors can be used for level sensing or monitoring of brake fluid, contained water, dilute acid, gasoline, oil, or any number of process liquids, limited only by the series’ material of construction (polyamide or polypropylene).
As with all Hermetic Switch reed-switch-based designs, these sensors require no electric power to function since they operate using a permanent magnet?in this case, designed into the level sensor?so the sensors are not dependent on batteries and thereby can be used in extreme and/or remote environments for an extended period of time. Both “normally open” and “normally closed” designs are available in the new PRX+1660 series.
These PRX+1660 sensors can be mounted at the top or bottom of a liquid container or tank, depending on the application’s requirements. When operated within rated electrical loads, these float sensors will provide millions of cycles, long life, and years of reliable operation.
