The Type 1 LLE series is available in 3 wire format and features a flange style moulded polysulphone housing with a 12 mm thread for external insertion. The Optical Liquid Level Sensor uses a photo-transistor trigger which provides a digital output that denotes the presence or absence of liquid. This series incorporates reverse polarity, over voltage, short circuit and transient protection. Features, Solid state technology, Small size , Digital output, Pre-wired , Electrically robust Benefits, Accurate repeatable switching point, Can be mounted in applications where space is limited , Microprocessor compatible Easy to install, saving assembly time. Typical Applications, Home appliances ,Spa baths , Vending machines, food and beverage, medical, compressors, machine tools Go to Order Guide for detailed product listings. Specifications
