• Introduction
The miniature magnetic level sensors are used for liquid level detection. They
have been designed for reliable operation in small tanks and containers. Their
rugged design and careful engineering make them the optimum solution for
OEM and large volume applications.

• Installation Location
Locate the LFE where the change in liquid level will actuate the switch. DO
NOT locate near liquid inlets/outlets. If there is turbulence, use a time delay
relay to dampen the switch action.

• Wiring
Wiring shall be in accordance with all local codes. Lead wires are #22 AWG,
UL listed (UL1430). APG recommends the use of solderless lugs for connection.

Switch Rating (Resistive)
• Max capacity 50 VA, 50 W
• Max current 0.5 A AC, 0.5 A DC
• Max voltage 300 VAC, 300 VDC
Yellow

Switch Rating (Resistive)
• Max capacity 10 VA, 10 W
• Max current 0.2 A AC, 0.2 A DC
• Max voltage 100 VAC, 100 VDC
Note: Max pull-load of the lead wire is 19.6 N. Excessive pulling or kinking
of the lead wire may break the switch.
Caution!
Protection for electrical surges:
• Overvoltage
Reed switches are not designed for the direct starting of inductive loads
such as motors, contactors, solenoid valves, and so on. They are susceptible
to damage from overvoltages. DO NOT EXCEED THE CONTACT
RATINGS. Contact should be wired to miniature relays, suppressors or
similar devices.
• Overcurrent
Momentary surge current may be produced by switching lamps or stray
capacity from long cable length, consequently welding the reed switch.
Contact should be wired to a relay unit, coils in series, or suppressors.
