Tough new metal electrooptic liquid level sensor

Specialist in liquid level, pressure, and flow sensors, miniature solenoid valves and fluidic systems, Gems Sensors & Controls has introduced a new compact, durable, and low cost Electro Optic Level Sensor (ELS) for liquid level sensor applications. The ELS 950M expands on the existing ELS 950 Series and will benefit OEMs and end users in a wide range of industries and environments.

Encased in a brass housing, the new ELS 950M liquid level sensor features an over-moulded electronics insert, TPE insulated wires, and a fluorocarbon O-ring seal to create an air- and watertight resistant assembly that is able to perform in harsh environments.

This sensor can maintain integrity in temperatures ranging from -40 to +110°C and pressures up to 17 bar.

The ELS-950M has been rigorously developed to meet the demands of a wide range of industry applications and is approved to UL Recognition, CE marked to EMI standards, shock and vibration tested to MIL standards, ingress protected to IP66/67 and is RoHS compliant for hazardous materials.
