R-Series Stainless-Steel Liquid Level Sensor

The R-Series Stainless-steel Liquid Level Sensor is designed specifically for use with aggressive or corrosive liquids including salt water, coolant, acids and chemical-based liquids. The sensor features an SAE 5-bolt mounting pattern and is manufactured to your custom length requirement up to 500mm (for longer sensor requirements please visit the Rxl Stainless-Steel Liquid Level Sensor page).

R-Series Stainless-Steel Liquid Level SensorThe sensor provides a fully-configurable 0-5V analogue output, which is typically calibrated 0.25V empty, 4.75V full. Each sensor is factory calibrated in your liquid type (or equivalent) and is supplied with free calibration software to allow re-calibration at a later date if required.

With a wide operating temperature range of ?40ºC to +125ºC, the R-Series Stainless-steel liquid level sensor is well-suited to a variety of industrial, military, motorsport and automotive applications.
