Custom Liquid Level Switches
Gill custom liquid level switches are designed to your exact requirements. The sensors utilise advanced capacitive technology to provide a fully configurable 0-5V switched output, which can be configured to switch at any point over the sensor length.
The sensors feature fully integrated electronics; with constructions typically designed for operation from -40ºC to +125ºC. Some designs allow for on-board liquid temperature measurement, with a thermistor mounted within the sensor probe.
Gill liquid level switches can be designed for full submersion in fuel and oil and are well suited to applications subject to harsh operating conditions.
