LS-3 Series Single-Point Level Switch
Brand: Gems Sensors, Inc
The durable construction of these reed switch designs ensures long, trouble-free service. Because the effects of shock, wear and vibration are minimized, these hermetically sealed level switches provide precise repeatability with no more than 1% deviation.
The level switch actuation points remain constant over the life of the unit. Ideal for shallow tanks or restricted spaces, or for any low-cost, high volume use.
LS-3 Series are available in FDA/NSF compliant materials upon request, consult Gems™ for details.
LS-3 MICRO: The newest addition to the LS-3 series family is the LS-3 Micro. It is the smallest LS-3 series switch available.
These units are ideal for potable water, medical devices and other compact appliances such as printers. The LS-3 Micro float enables use in lighter-than-water fluids.
These switches are also made with FDA compliant material, which expands the scope in which these floats can be used.
