Level Measurement & Control
Information Security
Industrial (Industry)
IFM Electronic's new LK level sensors provide easy selection of the medium in the user menu. They are designed for continuous detection of levels in all kinds of vessels such as coolant pumping stations, hydraulic tanks and industrial washing machines.
Levels are conveniently controlled within the set limits using the operating switching output while the integrated LED display allows direct readout of the present level. Critical process states such as overflow of the vessel can be directly monitored using the overflow switch-point. For safety reasons this output is completely independent of the level measurement.
Now one integrated unit can be used instead of individual units for level measurement and overflow detection. This creates savings from reduced mounting, purchasing and maintenance costs. Versatile mounting accessories enable installation in different processes and the insertion depth can be adjusted. Probes are available in 264, 472 and 728 mm lengths and the units meet IP67 protection requirements.
