General Description


MODEL 8301

Designed for sensing either resistance or fluid level to control the SPST relay. Primarily used for cutoff protection of sumps, pumps and heaters in high or low water conditions.

Integrated circuits, tested components and current design technology guarantee maximum reliability and savings. Ideal for OEM applications that require LOW COST and HIGH QUALITY performance.

DIRECT OPERATION

PUMP DOWN-output remains ON until the absence of liquid (HIGH RESISTANCE) on probe circuit.

INVERSE OPERATION

PUMP UP-output remains ON until the presence of liquid (LOW RESISTANCE) on probe circuit.

Typical Applications

Detection of level conditions in Tanks, Sumps, Reservoirs, Wells or Pools. Vending Machines, Water Softeners, Dishwashers, Coffee Makers, Ice Machines. Food, Dairy, Brewing and Chemical Processing. Metal to Metal Contact Detection in Conveyor and Robotic Applications. Leak Detection in Ducts, Sub-Floors, etc.

AS ACTUATORS/ SENSORS

Probes, Float, Flow, Pressure Switches Thermostats, Push-button Actuators, Temperature, Pressure, Humidity.
