Level sensors beat limescale buildup

Horizontal mount liquid level sensors from Gentech can be mounted at a 45deg angle to eradicate the problem of limescale build up on the sensor hinge and avoid costly modification of the sensor

Horizontal mount liquid level sensors from switching, sensing and control solutions specialist Gentech International can be mounted at a 45deg angle to eradicate the problem of limescale build up on the sensor hinge and avoid costly modification of the sensor.

Instead, insertion at 45deg keeps the hinge clear of the liquid without inhibiting sensor performance.

The Gentech LS4 sensor is of glass filled polypropylene construction, with an operating temperature range of -30C to +110C, while the LS5 is constructed in glass reinforced polyphenylene with an operating temperature range of -30C to +130C.

Both have WRC approval for use in hot and cold potable water applications.

Suitable for high and low level sensing, the sensors can be fitted internally via M12, M16 or 1/4" NPT or externally by means of the Gentech compression grommet system or 1/2" NPT, and feature normally open or normally closed operation by rotating through 180deg.
