Product catalog summary

Overview of Reed Level Sensors
Reed level sensors are designed to detect changes in liquid levels using a float with a built-in magnet that moves along a shaft. The reed switch, installed in the shaft, is activated by the magnetic field, signaling a change in liquid level. Standex Electronics offers a wide range of designs, configurations, and materials for these sensors, from simple models to complex systems with various switching states.

Properties of Reed Technology

Hermetically sealed and compact design
No power consumption in standby mode
High reliability with millions of switching operations
Accurate control of open and closure points
Low contact and high isolation resistance
No switching noise

Advantages of Reed Level Sensors

Operational up to 200°C
Stem diameters from 7 to 14 mm and lengths from 80 to 1000 mm
Horizontal and vertical mounting options
Customizable designs for various applications
Switching signal currents and loads up to 100 W

Automotive and Fluid Level Applications
The LS04 Series is designed for versatile liquid level sensing, capable of handling up to 9 sensing positions and 6 floats on one shaft. It features a long vertical sensing range and uses standard PVC cables for insulation. The tooling can be molded in various plastics suitable for different liquids, such as polyamide for oils and polypropylene for water.

Specifications of LS04 Series

Switching voltage: 1000 V
Switching current: 1.0 Amps
Contact rating: 200 Watts
Operate temperature: -40 to 200°C
Storage temperature: -20 to 100°C
