Turck’s new LS-5 is a programmable probe-style level sensor that is used to measure liquid in metal or plastic containers. The sensor shows the measured liquid level on an integrated display while the programmable analog and switching outputs communicate critical process information to a control system. This sensor is well suited for level control in factory automation such as automotive assembly, stationary hydraulic power and automated parts machining. IO-Link capabilities available on all models.


Applications

  • Accumulator
  • Chemical storage and small additive vessels
  • Lube oil pots and reservoirs
  • Balance tanks used to maintain a constant level of product above a pump inlet
  • Level in hydraulic power units
  • Machine tool cutting fluids
