    Capacitive
    Capacitive level switches are sensors with an electrical contact output at a specific liquid, powder, or bulk level. Their traditional use is for non-metallic materials such as: plastics industry, chemical industry, wood industry, ceramic and glass industry, and packing industry. A few models are no maintenance.

    Displacer
    Displacer level switches are sensors with an electrical contact output at a specific liquid level. Models are suspended on a coil spring. Displacers are not affected by turbulence or pressure and are excellent for applications with viscous or dirty liquids. Applications include foaming liquids, heavy oil refineries, paints & varnishes, and chemical plants.

    Question
    What are the two dry product level switch model types? What ranges do they cover? How are they adjusted? How many set-points do they have?
    Answer
    GSD3DA - gravity (elastomer) suspension, aluminum housing, polyurethane diaphragm, standard 15 amp switch. PSD16A - pneumatic (fabric), suspension, aluminum housing, filter fabric diaphragm, polyester 150 micron permeability, standard 15 amp switch. They can be adjusted to any level. They are adjusted by a screw adjustment. One setpoint available. For additional options, you could look at our CLS2 Series Capacitive Level Switch, TFLS Series Tuning Fork Level Switch, PLS and PLS2 Series Paddle Level Switches.

    Question
    Why is the minimum specific gravity important on the float level switches?
    Answer
    If a medium has a lower s.g. than the rated minimum for a float, the float will sink through the media and the switch will not operate.
