SOR® mechanical level switches

are rugged, industrial products specifically
designed for versatility of application.
This catalog contains application and
ordering data for float and displacer-
operated level switches. Switches are
available with flanged or sealed chambers
or as insertion models.
Options available for each type of switch

include: switch type and number, housing
type, chamber material, process connections,
accessories, and more. Units may be
customized to suit customers’ needs.
Inside this catalog you will find solutions to

your level sensing puzzles. SOR mechanical
level switches have many configurations
available. If you don’t see what you need, we
will engineer a solution for your application.

Notes
1. Standard Units: It is important to consider the installation configuration when selecting the process
connection. Be sure that the float will fit through the process connection, or that the vessel has access to
attach the float from inside the vessel after instrument installation.
2. Tandem Float Units: It is important to consider the installation configuration when selecting the process
connection. Be sure that the float will fit through the process connection. Tandem floats are not removable
and must be installed through the nozzle opening. Operating specific gravity and insertion depths must be
specified.

Level Switches Switching Mechanisms
SOR switching mechanisms are designed for use in punishing industrial atmospheres. SOR offers
a variety of electrical and pneumatic switching mechanism types to fit a wide range of applications.
The basic types of switch mechanisms available are listed below. See page 46 for specifications.
All SOR switching mechanisms are constructed from stainless steel and other durable
manufactured materials. Each mechanism is individually calibrated and inspected to insure
accuracy and repeatability. See below for the benefits and application of each switch type.
All mechanisms are interchangeable with most competitor units.
Standard Dry-Contact Switches

Types A, B, C, E
Standard dry-contact switches have open mechanisms and
exposed switching elements. These switching mechanisms are
easy to maintain. Visual confirmation of operation is obvious.
Dry-contact switch mechanisms are recommended for most level
switch applications and are available in SPDT and DPDT switch
arrangements.
Dry-Contact Switch Mechanisms feature:

 High-load carrying capacity
 High-quality phenolic insulator
 Vibration resistance
 Versatility of application
Hermetically Sealed Switches

Types F, G, H
Hermetically sealed switches are entirely enclosed in a
hermetically sealed enclosure. Both switching elements and
mechanisms are sealed. Good for very volatile atmospheres
and low temperatures.
Hermetically Sealed Switch Mechanisms feature:

 Completely enclosed switching mechanism and
switch contacts
 Long-term reliability in harsh environmental conditions
Mini-Hermetically Sealed Switches

Types L, S, T, V
Mini-hermetically sealed switches have a hermetically sealed
switch element on an exposed mechanism. Good for high-
temperature service and normal applications that require
hermetically sealed contacts.
Mini-Hermetically Sealed Switch Mechanisms feature:

 Rugged stainless steel construction
 Class I Group A rating for use in hazardous areas
 High operating temperature limits
Form 912
Mechanical
Level Switches Switching Mechanisms
Anti-Vibration Switches
Types D and R
Anti-Vibration Switches employ two magnets to provide
vibration protection. Dual magnets prevent false trips by
providing a positive mechanical lock to the enclosing tube
when the switch is in any position.
(Type T switches are mini-hermetically sealed units with
dual magnets.)
Pneumatic Switches
Type J
Pneumatic switches are available for applications that prohibit
electrical switching or where electricity is not available.
Pneumatic switches feature:

 Three-way aluminum valve
 Anti-vibration design
 Available 1/4" NPT ports in 316SS for additional
corrosion resistance
Mercury Switches
Types M and N
Mercury switches are particularly valuable for applications
requiring visual verification of switch actuation. The mercury
switching elements are attached to the outside of the switch
mechanism to facilitate visual inspection.
Mercury Switches feature:
 Hermetically sealed switch contacts
 Visual verification of switch actuation
 Compatibility with high DC current applications
Extra-High Temperature Switches

Type Z
The Z Series level switch mechanism is designed to
operate normally under extremely high-temperature
conditions. Constructed of stainless steel, ceramic, and
oxidation-resistant alloys, the Z Series is designed to
counteract the warping and seizure normally associated with
this type of mechanism in high temperatures. The Z Series
switch is especially well suited for power plant conditions.
Z Series Switch Mechanisms feature:
 Mica/glass insulation on wires and switches
 Stainless steel and ceramic switch element and
terminal block rated 1000°F (538°C)

 Switch mechanism rated at 650°F (343°C)

Notes
1. Minimum ambient temperature at which the switch mechanism will operate normally. This may vary
according to actual climatic conditions. Actual minimum process temperature may be much lower.
Consult the factory for details.
2. Maximum process temperature at which the switch mechanism will operate normally. This can be increased
according to the type of process. Refer to pages 50 - 52 for more details.
3. Mercury switches include a hazardous material. MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) supplied with
each switch.
4. Pneumatic switches must be used with clean, dry air or gas.

The condensate pot temperature extension is designed to protect the electrical portion of a level switch
from heat damage due to condensing processes. When used in combination with high-temperature switch
mechanisms, this option allows operation in process temperatures up to 1000oF (538oC).
How It Works
This temperature extension condenses process steam and 179.4
reduces its heat before it can reach the switching mechanism. 7.06

The design resists steam entering the enclosing tube, 4.00
protecting the switching mechanism from deterioration

Consult the factory if any of these conditions exist.
ET Accessory
The straight temperature extension provides physical distance
between the process and the switching mechanism. It is 201 A -A1C-B-A1-N4-ET TT
constructed of a straight piece of pipe welded between the 179.4
chamber and enclosing tube connection. 7.06

How It Works 4.00
The straight temperature extension is designed to remove the
switch from direct radiant heat in dry heat processes. It also
provides some protection against steam heat. Consult the 1” NPT(F) 228.6
chart on page 51 for application. Electrical 9.00

Level Switches Specific Gravity of Water
The specific gravity of water changes as it heats and cools. The chart below lists properties of
saturated steam. Saturated steam is the state where water is in transition between liquid and vapor.
The chart provides the process temperature with the associated pressure and specific gravity of the
condensate water. If a water application has a high temperature and low pressure, condensate will
only be present at the temperature that corresponds to the maximum pressure. Select the proper
row based on the temperature and pressure, and read the specific gravity.
Figures are based on saturated steam.

2. The design gage pressure does not exceed 150 psi.
3. The design temperature is between -20°F and 366°F.
Category M A fluid service in which the potential for personnel exposure is judged to be significant and

produce serious irreversible harm to persons on breathing or bodily contact, even when
prompt restorative measures are taken.

Level Switches MC and TC Options
702A-AIC-B-A1-MC-CRTT
Manual Check (MC) and Tru-Check (TC) options permit manual actuation of vertical displacer level
switches, addressing EPA and OSHA safety requirements. The standard 30-foot stainless steel
chain allows manual actuation from the tank base, eliminating potentially hazardous trips to the top
of the tank. Specify either an MC or TC option by placing the designator in the accessory section of
the model number.
Designator Application
TC Tanks or vessels pressurized to 100 psi
MC Atmospheric vented tanks or vessels
These options can be supplied on SOR level switch Series 701 through 704 and 730 through 733.
MC and TC option available on carbon steel units only.
How It Works
Pulling the handle transfers downward motion to the actuator lever by means of the beaded
stainless steel chain. The resultant motion lifts the entire level sensing assembly which moves
the attraction sleeve and actuates the switching element to simulate a high-level condition.
Switching action for alarm, shutdown or control is verified.
