Babbitt International Nordson 224413 Level Switch PC Board LS8000/R Rev 4
The Babbitt International Nordson 224413 Level Switch PC Board LS8000/R Rev 4 is a remote-mounted radio frequency (RF) level switch designed for applications where it is unsafe or impractical to mount electronics directly to the probe. This advanced system offers precise level detection for a wide range of materials, including dry powders, liquids, and interfaces between immiscible liquids.
Key Features
- Remote Electronics: The receiver board can be installed up to a mile away from the probe, facilitating flexible and safe installation in challenging environments.
- High Sensitivity: Ultra-high sensitivity adjustments allow for the detection of even the driest powders, fines, and flakes, making it suitable for materials such as dry herbicides, plastic pellets, wood chips, and fly ash.
- Solid-State Design: With no moving parts, the LS8000/R serves as a reliable replacement for mechanical devices like floats and rotating paddles, reducing maintenance needs.
- Built-in Time Delay: User-programmable time delay settings help prevent false switching during filling operations or in turbulent conditions, enhancing operational accuracy.
- Explosion-Proof Housing: The cast aluminum enclosure is rated for hazardous areas, ensuring safe operation in environments with explosive gases or dust.
- Static Protection: Integrated static suppression circuitry protects against static buildup, which is particularly beneficial when handling materials prone to generating static electricity.
Specifications
- Power Supply: Standard 115 Vac (±15%) 50/60 Hz, 2 Watts; optional 12 Vdc, 24 Vdc, or 230 Vac.
- Output: Dual Form C Contact DPDT Relay, rated at 5 A resistive at 125/230 Vac or 30 Vdc.
- On-Board Fuse: 250 mA for circuit protection.
- Failsafe Operation: Selectable high or low level settings to suit various application requirements.
