Supplied as a 10-sensor in a variety of lengths, 3-sensor or single sensor. Custom versions also available.
A failsafe version of the single sensor probe has just been released.
How reliable is it?
Ultra-reliable. There are no moving parts and no electronics, so it will last for 20+ years. That's why it gets a 10 year warranty.
No other liquid level sensor comes close.
What control devices can use it?
Anything that measures conductivity. The control device should apply a low a.c. voltage (recommend around 10-12 volts) to each sensor and measure conductivity to ground:
- For lift stations under water/wastewater utility control - try the MultiSmart pump station manager
- For smaller sumps and storm water applications with 2 pumps where no monitoring is required, try the MTDPC pump controller
- For 1 and 2 pump applications with no alternation use the MTIC
- For the simplest control, you can use the MTR family of relays
- For ultra-reliable high level, use the new failsafe version with the Safe-FS Level Alarm Relay
What skills are needed to install a level probe?
Only reading the instructions! Probe installation is easily achieved without the need to enter the wet area. The probe is simply lowered in from the top and suspended by its own cable, using the mounting kit supplied. Install near the inflow, not in the quietest part of the well!
How do I calibrate it?
No calibration required. No waiting for the well to empty and fill. You can choose the start, stop and alarm points and you can see where they are.
Usually very little or none. Install it near the inflow and it stays relatively clean. If there is any build up, it occurs on the activation sensor and rarely affects the operation.
This probe was still fully operational despite the buildup. The operator is pulling the probe through the standard cleaning bracket to clean off the buildup.
The mounting bracket shown is supplied as standard with the multi-sensor probe and includes the cleaning bracket.
The single sensor probe doesn't come with a mounting bracket as standard.
