All Liquid Level & Flow Sensors

Our liquid level sensors with integrated magnetic floats and cable terminals are used to detect low fluid levels or multiple fluid points. Choose from vertical or horizontal mount options and a range of switching options. They are simple, dependable, versatile, and low cost. Easily customizable and simple to install, magnetic level sensors are low power devices that don’t require electronics, making them very appealing for most applications. Reed liquid level sensors are fast becoming the level sensing technology of the future. What is driving this is its key reed sensor characteristics. They draw zero voltage and current – no power until they are energized. They can sit for years never drawing any power. This attribute alone allows them to be designed-in, in many applications where power is scarce. This includes many battery driven applications.

SPDT Changeover (1 Form C)

SPDT changeover reed switch products are a single (Form C) reed switch which is essentially a single pole double throw SPDT reed switch.  It is hermetically sealed with 3 leads: a common lead, a normally open lead, and a normally closed reed switch lead. When operated the common contact will swing from the normally closed contact to the normally open contact. This is caused by the magnetic field produced by a coil or the magnetic field from a magnet.  When the magnetic field is removed the changeover reed switches common contact will revert back and come to rest on the normally closed contact. Check out our Magnet Interaction page to see animated examples of how reed switches are used in a sensing environment.
