FLOAT OPERATED LEVEL CONTROLLER

PNEUMATIC LEVEL SWITCH

APPLICATION: OPERATION:
Liquid level controller for oil and gas separators, water knock- The FLOAT is counterbalanced by the FLOAT LEVER. As
outs, gas scrubbers and accumulators. the liquid level increases the FLOAT is lifted. A MAGNET in the
FLOAT LEVER opposes the CHECK BALL inside the body. As

Rated for 2000 psi working pressure upward. This opens the lower CHECK VALVE SEAT. As the
Push-button dump valve override standard lower seat opens, pressure is introduced to the back of the
Standard float operates in 0.5 specific gravity VALVE DIAPHRAGM. This moves the VALVE STEM and allows
Designed for harsh gas compressor scrubber applications gas to flow through the valve.
