Level Switch – Model L-21
Wide Differential Level Switch
The L-21 is a low cost, high performance level switch made from highly durable plastics. It features a variable liquid level differential and a single point pump up/pump down level control.
The L-21 Level Switch can be ordered with level differentials of 1, 2, 3 or 5 inches. The L-21+ can be ordered with level differentials from 12 to 48 inches. The L-21’s large differential provides immunity to nuisance switch tripping due to wave action and turbulence. The large differential also provides very low cost single point pump-up/pump-down level control. No latching relay needed!
Maintenance and checkout is easy using any standard multimeter. Each unit comes with a detailed instruction manual and parts list.

Note: Model L-21 employs magnetic coupling between float arm and switch body. Magnetic particles can accumulate on and around magnet housing which may affect proper operation. Please conduct appropriate fluid magnetic particle evaluation and operational tests prior to and during installation and use.
