Technical Specification
LS100, Level sensor
TECHNICAL DATA
The ITT Flygt level sensor LS 100 is used to measure a liquid level and to give a signal to a control system. The
sensor is specially developed to withstand a harsh environment and for media typical for Flygt pumps: sewage,
slurry and viscous liquids. The output is a standard 4–20 mA direct current, proportional to the measured level.
The sensor is therefore well adapted to the prevalent control systems on the market and fits of course also the
ITT Flygt controllers of type MACTEC FMC100 - 700, IPC and SPC.
The heart of the sensor is a ceramic so-called CCS-sensor (Capacitive Ceramic Sensor). The sensor element
unites high performance with robustness, properties usually hard to combine.
The sensor is characterised by:
• High accuracy, repeatability and long term stability
• Wide temperature range: –20°C to 80°C
• Durability to foam, dirt and sediment
• Durability to overpressure (5 times the meas. range)
• High tear and chemical resistance
