Coolant Level Alarm Switch Model S85
Coolant Level Alarm Switch Model S85 is an active device which is designed to give an alarm signal if water/coolant based fluids falls below or rises above a present level. It will only signal after a 10 seconds delay in sensing the level to eliminate false alarms due to turbulence.
Containing a programmable microprocessor, the switch can offer one or two output pins which can sink to ground or supply a source voltage, or both.
Its tiny footprint with limited intrusion into the tank means a reduced risk of damage and a wide range of options and customisations makes it suitable for most applications.
Product background:
The Level Alarm Switch S85 series was introduced to the market over 10 years ago and since its inception over half a million sensors have been supplied proving it as a very robust and reliable product. It has now become an industry standard and is specified worldwide by many leading engine manufacturers including Perkins, Cummins and Caterpillar.
