Overview / Design Principle: 

 These Electro-Optic switches feature a one piece removable electronics module with 1/2" NPT conduit connection and an internal O-ring seal to protect against external moisture intrusion. Simply unthread the 1/2" NPT conduit connection for easy replacement of the electronics module without the inconvenience of emptying or depressurizing tanks. ELS-1200RE switches feature glass prisms fused to zinc/nickel plated, carbon steel housings. Select from either 1/2" NPT mounting connections, or 3/4"-16 UNJF-3A straight thread connections with an external O-ring seal. They monitor high pressure liquid processes with very little intrusion into tanks or piping.

ELS Series Level Switches are low cost, compact, optical, level sensors with built-in switching electronics. With no moving parts, these small units are ideal for a variety of point level sensing applications especially where dependability and economy are a must.

Level switches are suitable for high, low or intermediate level detection in practically any tank top, large or small. Installation is simple and quick through the tank top, bottom or side. Solid state-switching ensures dependability over long service life.

The sensor offers ±1mm repeatability and broad liquid compatibility. They are not recommended for use in any liquid that crystallizes or leaves a solid residue.
