Sealed External Cage
Liquid Level Switches
DESCRIPTION
Sealed external cage type level switches are completely
self-contained units designed for side mounting to a tank
or vessel with threaded or flanged pipe connections.
These units are an industry standard in petroleum
refineries and chemical plants. Thousands of these
switches are in daily service throughout the world.
FEATURES
• Carbon steel or stainless steel welded float chamber
• Service pressures up to 2240 psig (154 bar)
• Process temperatures up to +1000° F (+538° C)
• Specific gravity ratings as low as 0.32
• Available switch styles including dry contact,
hermetically sealed and pneumatic
• Single or multiple switch mechanisms available
• Available switch enclosures include:
APPLICATIONS
NEMA 1 carbon steel for pneumatics
• Accumulators
• Flash tanks
TYPE 4X/7/9 Class I, Div. 1 Groups C & D or
Groups B, C & D polymer coated aluminum
• Receivers
• Knockout drums
• Flare pots
• Storage tanks
• 1", 11⁄2", or 2" tank connections available in either
NPT, socket weld, flanged side/side or flanged
side/bottom construction
• Scrubbers
• Separators
• Oil refineries
• Chemical processing plants
• Optional high temperature insulation available.
See bulletin 41-106.
• Steam and electric generating stations
TECHNOLOGY
A permanent magnet is attached to a pivoted switch
actuator and adjustment screw . As the float rises
following the liquid level, it raises the attraction sleeve
into the field of the magnet, which then snaps
against the non-magnetic enclosing tube , actuating
the switch . The enclosing tube provides a static
pressure boundary between the switch mechanism and
the process. On a falling level, an inconel spring retracts
the magnet, deactivating the switch.

IEC Installation Instructions: The cable entry and closing devices shall be Ex d certified suitable for the conditions of use and correctly installed.
For ambient temperatures above +55° C or for process temperatures above +150° C, suitable heat resistant cables shall be used.
Heat extensions (between process connection and housing) shall never be insulated.
Special conditions for safe use:
When the equipment is installed in process temperatures higher than +85° C the temperature classification must be reduced according to
the following table as per IEC60079-0.

Minimum specific gravity ratings apply only to single stage
units. Consult factory for two or three stage units.
Models are limited to maximum temperature rating of selected
switch mechanism. See Switch Mechanism Charts above.
Use caution when specifying carbon steel and stainless steel
for temperatures greater than +800° F (+427° C), as they
become sensitized.
S75, V75 & Z75 contain 17-7 ph float.
Valid for Models V75 & Z75 only.
Process temperature based on +100° F (+38° C) ambient.
HS and H1 switches can be used with only materials of construction code 1 on models S75, V75 & Z75.
On steam and other condensing applications, temperature
down-rated to +400° F (+204° C) process at +100° F (+38° C)
ambient.
