COMPACT VERTICAL

LIQUID LEVEL SENSORS

VCS Series

High- or low-level switching

N.O. or N.C. SPST output

Can be mounted in the bottom or top of a tank

Certified reed switch (UL component listed)

Choice of several non-reactive wetted materials

18 different configurations available

The VCS series of point liquid level switches demonstrates a high

degree of reliability due to the use of non-reactive wetted

components and a unique reed switch designed specifically for

level sensing applications. The sensor utilizes a moving float with

an embedded magnet to activate a reed switch located in the

sensor stem. As the liquid level passes the sensor, the float

moves up or down on the stem giving a normally closed or

normally open switch indication.

Features

 Voltage rating up to 250VAC

 Current rating up to 1.0 amp

 Compact design and low profile

 Optional cable lengths

Applications

The reliability of this sensor results from a very simple operating

principle, a single moving part, media compatible wetted materials,

and a unique reed switch design that has a UL recognized

component certification.

 Water and fuel storage tanks

 Full and/or empty detection

 Pump on/off controls

The sensor mounts into the top or bottom of a liquid storage tank

from the inside (internal fitting) using either a 1/8” NPT or M8 x

1.25 threaded fitting. The output is a simple N.O. or N.C. SPST

reed switch that utilizes Ruthenium contact points for reliability.

Changing from a N.O contact to a N.C. output is done by removing

the float, inverting it and re-attaching. This change can be done in

the field. Electrical outputs are a single pair of wires with PVC

insulation and optional lengths of 100 mm or 600 mm.

 Marine bilge and ballast tanks

 Flood detection and prevention

 Coolant level indication

 Livestock watering tanks

 Irrigation systems

 Water treatment plants

 Waste water tanks

 Chemical storage and processing

Application Information

The versatile design of the VCS series level sensor provides four different mounting and operating

modes. The sensor can mount at either the top or bottom of a liquid storage tank. In either position,

the float can be oriented to provide a N.O. or N.C. contact. Because the magnet is positioned at one

end of the float, it can be removed from the stem, turned upside down, and reinstalled to provide any of

the four configurations shown below.

To remove and re-orient the float, gently squeeze the retainer clips at the end of the sensor and slide

the float off the stem. Reinstall the float by sliding it back over the stem ensuring that it passes the clips

and allows them to return to their original position.

To avoid leaks, especially when mounting at the

bottom of a tank, use appropriate sealing

techniques around the threaded area. For the

1/8” NPT fitting, wrap PTFE tape on the threads

prior to installation. For the M8 x 1.25 fitting, use

an O-ring or sealing washer around the threads

on the interior of the tank along with a properly

sized locking nut on the outside.
