AX1X

Application

The intrinsically safe or general purpose level switch package
provides high or low liquid level detection with one relay or reed
switch output, and a compact junction box for wiring termination.
Available in three level sensor technologies, choose the sensor type
based upon your application media. This PP or PVDF level switch
package is selected for bulk storage, IBC or drum, and neutralization
tank applications, connected to a PLC or relay controller.

Relay Control

For remote relay control, add a LC4X

(general purpose) or LC9X (isolation)

controller to Switch-Pak™. They’re

available in two configurations with

one or two switch inputs and one or

two relay outputs for pump shut off,

valve closure or alarm actuation.

NOTES

Select the best sensor technology based upon your application.

1)
Available only in the following configurations:

2)
Vibration = AZ18 (General purpose with relay contact)
Ultrasonic = AU18 (Intrinsically safe with relay contact)
Buoyancy = AV16 (General purpose with reed contact)
PVDF is only available with ultrasonic or buoyancy sensors.

3)
Specify the A-dimension at the end of the part number (ie:

4)
AV16-4243-17”). The dimension may be specified in 1/2” (1.3cm)
increments from 6” to 10’ (15cm to 3m).
To calculate the length adder, round up the A-dimension to the

5)
next foot (30cm), multiply it by the selected material, and add
that sum to the price. For PP, add $10 per foot (30cm). For PVDF,
add $50 per foot (30cm).
