Miniature float-level sensor C4954-xxxxx from Madison Co.

April 27, 2019 By Lisa Eitel

Accurate measurement of liquid volumes at any point in a container is critical for many commercial and industrial processes. Reducing process variability results in less waste, higher quality and reduced cost, and can make a big difference in profitability for OEMs.

Madison continuous float level sensors offer all the advantages of reed-switch-based technology, now available in a ruggedized, miniature version for applications with a small tank footprint.

Miniature float-level sensor C4954-xxxxx from Madison Co.

Madison’s miniature continuous float level sensors provide feedback that is used to achieve precise fluid level detection at any point in the tank. As part of a feedback loop, the linear sensor output can also be used to adjust metering pumps or flow valves to maintain predictable process control.

Features of the miniature float-level sensor:

• Customizable mountings and sensing length from 3 to 13 in.

• Proven, durable construction for harsh environments

• Provides precise, linear, continuous liquid level values

• Configurable in mixed materials for fluid compatibility and long life; ideal for small dosing tanks

• Provides standard 4-20mA, resistive or 1-5 VDC voltage output types for panel meters and PLCs

• Much smaller deadband than radar and ultrasonic sensors

Applications abound and include:

Dispensing fuel additives; monitoring dispensed agricultural fertilizers

Monitoring high value chemicals; small day tank level monitoring; lubricating applications
