Miniature level switches use optical sensing
Sensortechnics is introducing the OLP series of miniature optical liquid level switches. These very cost-effective point level sensors measure the presence or absence of liquid in a wide range of OEM applications.
The optical OLP switches use solid-state technology with no moving parts to give highly accurate and reliable measurements.
The product range offers basic devices with analogue signals, switches with microprocessor-compatible digital outputs, or high-power transistor output versions capable of switching currents up to 500mA.
With their miniature plastic polysulphone housings, the sensors have excellent media compatibility. Additionally, Sensortechnics can easily modify or customise these products to suit customers' special requirements.
The new OLP point level sensors are applicable to a wide range of OEM applications such as medical equipment, HVAC, compressors, hydraulic reservoirs, machine tools and leak detection as well as food, beverage and pharmaceutical processing.
