Description
Award-winning in design and functionality
The successful design and the excellent functionality of
the WIKA switch family were already conrmed by winning
the “iF product design award 2009” for the pressure switch
model PSD-30.
The robust LED display has been designed using 0.37"
(9 mm) high characters (the largest possible) and with a
slight incline in order to make reading the level as easy as
possible from a long way o. A 14-segment display has
been used, so alphanumeric messages are much easier
to understand.
The 3-key operation makes simple, intuitive menu navigation
possible, with no need for additional assistance. The menu
navigation is designed in accordance with the latest VDMA
standard. The VDMA standard for uid sensors (24574-4,
part 4 - level switches) has the aim of considerably simplifying the use of level switches by standardising menu navigation and display.
Electronic level switch with display
Model LSD-30
The control keys have been designed as large as possible
and are arranged ergonomically to ensure fast and easy
adjustments. Operation without any additional assistance is
made easier through the tactile feedback.
Customised installation
The installation of the model LSD-30 level switch can be
exibly adapted to the individual mounting situation. Due to
the almost unlimited rotation of the display and case by more
than 300°, the display can be adjusted independently of the
electrical connection. The display can thus always be aligned
to face the operator, and the M12 x 1 connection positioned
to suit the desired cable routing.
High quality
During development of the WIKA switch family a high
value was placed on a robust design and the selection
of appropriate materials suited for machine-building
applications. For this reason the case and the threaded
connection of the electrical connector are made from
stainless steel. Overwinding or tearing o the connector
is therefore virtually impossible.
