HLS-M Float Switch
- Item #: 3121
Product Description
The WIKA HLS-M float switch for horizontal installation is ideal for use in miniature design due to its compact design. It is most commonly used for indicating minimum/maximum levels in small tanks.
The HLS-M float is attached to a supported, swivelling lever and moves with the level of the medium being measured. By means of a permanent magnet, when a preset switch point is reached, a reed contact (inert gas contact) is actuated.
By using a magnet and reed contact the switching operation is non-contact, free from wear and needs no power supply. The contacts are potential-free. The switching function refers to a rising liquid level: Standard use as normally open contact (can be used as normally closed contact by a 180° rotation). The float switch is simple to mount and maintenance-free, so the costs of mounting, commissioning and operation are low.
