Float Level Switches – LSA Series
Marine float level switches, whether horizontally or vertically mounted, provide high-level or low-level detection of liquids in all types of vessels.
The LSA switch is mounted horizontally or vertically in the tank and uses a cylindrical float with a magnet attached to the end of the lever arm that activates a reed type magnetic micro-switch in the electrical connection housing as the float rise or falls.
Versions of the LSA switch are available with an external test handle which enables triggering of the alarm irrespective of the level of liquid in the tank.
The housing is manufactured in corrosion resistant Gun Metal (RG5 or RG10) and the float assembly in 1.4571 Stainless Steel. Inclusion of an approved cable gland and integral cable during manufacture enables I.S. approved versions to be specified.
Top mounted switches may be specified with single or double cranked arms with dimensions to suit the required switch point.
