FAQs of Hanging type LBFS Level Switch:
Q: How is the Hanging Type LBFS Level Switch installed in a tank or well?
A: The switch is installed by suspending it from its attached cable inside the tank, well, or container. The hanging cable allows you to adjust the detection point by varying its length, making installation straightforward and adaptable to different liquid levels.
Q: What type of output does the LBFS Level Switch provide?
A: This level switch provides a switching contact output via a relay, specifically a single-pole single-throw (SPST) circuit. The relay uses silver alloy contacts for improved conductivity and longevity.
Q: When is the switching distance for level detection adjusted?
A: The switching distance can be set during installation by adjusting the length of the hanging cable. This allows you to position the float at the desired activation point within the tank or container, ensuring precise liquid level detection.
Q: Where can the LBFS Level Switch be used?
A: It is suitable for use in a wide range of environments, including tanks, wells, and open containers in industrial, agricultural, and commercial applications where liquid level monitoring is essential.
Q: What benefits does this hanging-type switch offer compared to other designs?
A: The hanging-type design simplifies installation, allows for flexible adjustment of detection points, and removes the need for complex mounting hardware. Its robust build, customizable cable length, and automatic operation provide convenience and reliability.
Q: How does the float-activated switch operate to detect liquid levels?
A: The float mechanism rises or falls with the liquid level. When the preset level is reached, the float activates the internal relay switch, which can then send a signal to external control systems or alarms.
Q: What is the typical usage process for this switch once installed?
A: After installation and adjusting the cable to the desired depth, the switch continuously monitors the liquid level. When the fluid reaches the set point, the relay contact toggles, enabling automated control of pumps, alarms, or other devices connected to the circuit.
