DESCRIPTION
Magnetrol's displacement type level switches offer the
industrial user a wide choice of alarm and control
configurations. Each unit utilizes a simple buoyancy
principle and is well suited for simple or complex
applications, such as foaming or surging liquids or
agitated fluids, and usually costs less than other
types of level switches.

Standard controls
Operation is based upon simple buoyancy, whereby a
spring is loaded with weighted displacers which are heavier than the liquid. Immersion of the displacers in the liquid
results in buoyancy force change, which moves the spring
upward. Since the spring moves only when the level moves
on a displacer, spring movement (1) is always a small fraction of the level travel between displacers (2).
A magnetic sleeve (3) is connected to the spring and
operates within a non-magnetic barrier tube (4). Spring
movement causes the magnetic sleeve to attract a pivoted
magnet (5), actuating a switch mechanism (6) located outside the barrier tube. Built-in limit stops, prevent over
stroking of the spring under level surge conditions.
Proof-er® controls
The purpose of the Proof-er® is to check the operation of a
displacer control without having to raise the level in the
tank. This is accomplished by pulling downward on the
Proof-er® cable. This causes the spring loaded lever arm to
lift the switch actuator, simulating a high or high high level
condition. When the cable is released, the Proof-er® returns
the actuator to its previous position to resume normal operation.

SINGLE SWITCH MODELS
Models A15 –
Level alarm applications
Narrow differential type
These instruments are
factory calibrated to
operate over a narrow
level differential band
and are ideally suited
for liquid level alarm
applications, on either
high or low level.
The operating level is
fully adjustable by
simply repositioning
the displacer along its
suspension cable.
The differential band is
± 51 mm (2") in water and
varies with liquid specific
gravity.
Models A10 –
Pump or valve control
Wide differential type
These wide differential
units are factory calibrated
to actuate as a liquid level
reaches a given displacer
and to remain actuated
until the level reaches
a second displacer.
The minimum differential
band is approximately
152 mm (6") in water
and varies with liquid
specific gravity.
The maximum differential
is determined by the
length of the displacer
suspension cable.
DUAL SWITCH MODELS
Models B15
Narrow differential type
These instruments utilize
two switches, each
actuated at a different
level and each calibrated
with a narrow
differential band.

Models B10
Wide differential type
These wide differential
tandem units are factory
calibrated with a choice
of several operating
sequences.
O P E R AT I N G S E Q U E N C E S
Model B10 units are available factory calibrated with a
choice of switch operating sequence. Five of the most popular sequences are described below.
When ordering B10 units, an operating sequence
and specific gravity MUST be provided.
PUMP CONTROL PLUS ALARM
Arrangement N° 1 — fill with high level alarm
At the lowest level the pump starts. When the level rises to
the middle displacer, the pump stops. If the level continues to
rise, the upper displacer actuates the alarm switch which
remains actuated until the level drops to the middle displacer.
CONTROL OF 2 PUMPS
Arrangement N° 4
In this sequence N° 1 pump starts as the level rises to the
middle displacer. Should the level continue to rise to the
upper displacer, N° 2 pump is actuated. Both pumps operate until the level is dropped to the lower displacer.

Arrangement N° 3 — fill or drain

A second larger pump is started should the level continue to
fall to the bottom displacer.
