MT10/1   MT10/3  MT10-Z

Sensor uses conductivity between the electrode and the ground to detect a level. For FRP or other plastic tanks, an earth electrode is required.

The sensor has a pair of electrodes, and applies alternating current to them. When the liquid covers the electrodes, it forms a part of an electric circuit, causing current to flow. The sensor measures electric resistance of the liquid, and compares the measured value with a preset value to determine liquid presence. When liquid presence is detected, the sensor sends a signal to an amplifier to open or close relay contacts of relay units.

• Insensitive to contamination
  Relay unit with sequential logic circuit (RE9000) ignores affection from scum, suspended solids or other contamination.
• Extremely rugged
  Having no moving parts, the sensor offers long service life.
• Easy-to-use relay unit
  Mounting the sensor is easy with a cleaner and a mounting bracket.
• Suitable for a wide range of applications
  DIP switch on relay unit allows measurement of various liquids.
