Dual Magnet Horizontal Mounting Float Switch

Mahalaxmi Instruments offers a dual magnet horizontal mounting float switch. The MLS-04/MLS-16 model magnetic level switches work on the principle of magnetic repulsion and therefore they are glandless and leak proof instruments. A permanent magnet fitted in the tailpiece of the float repels another magnet inside the switch housing, which in turn operates an SPDT microswitch. The contacts of the microswitch can be utilised for initiating audio-visual signals or pump control. Salient features: as the switches work on magnetic repulsion principle, they are glandless and leak proof; no power consumption; internal assembly wirings are Teflon insulated; internal switch assembly bracket is of cast aluminium; practically no maintenance is required except periodic cleaning; suitable for 2.5" (65 mm) NB nozzle mounting (for 63 mm dia float) and 2” (51 mm) NB nozzle for 48 mm dia float; differential between make and break 10 mm approximately; maximum working pressure 10 kg/cm2; maximum working temperature – 250°C (process temperature); contact ratings of microswitch 5 A at 230 V AC resistive; also available with micro switch having current rating 10 A at 230 V AC resistive; number of contacts – 1 change over as standard, optional - 2 change over; for high temperature up to 350°C (process temperature) 1 number SPDT reed switch with current rating 100 VA, max switching current – 5 A; max switching voltage – 230 V AC/200 V DC; and specific gravity range – down to 0.75.
