TECHNICAL DATA

S287 Coolant Level Switch –


Capacitance Type

The S287 is an active device designed to give an alarm signal if liquid falls
below, or rises above, a preset level. It can be specified with a delay to
eliminate false alarms due to turbulence and the flying lead enables
customers to specify a suitable connector of their choice.
Containing a factory programmable microprocessor, the switch offers sink to
ground or source voltage output. Its small footprint with limited intrusion into
the tank means a reduced risk of damage and a wide range of customer
specifiable options make it suitable for most applications.
The switch is designed to operate in both earthed metal and isolated plastic
tanks. For high accuracy the S287 is ideally mounted horizontally at the point
where an alarm or control signal is required. However, the switch can be
mounted vertically – contact Fozmula with your application requirements.
