  • Switch for neutral and aggressive liquids NO/NC Reed contact Vertical or horizontal mounting Molded lying leads or cable The device Type 8181 is a float switch that is insensitive to dirt particles in the liquid and is used to monitor the level in neutral or aggressive liquids in containers. The device consists of a fixed part, which contains the hermetically sealed reed contacts, and a float (moving part), which contains the magnets. This float actuates the reed contact, which can be either normally open or normally closed, depending on fluctuations in the liquid level. The device is available in different versions depending on the material (PP or stain less steel), installation position (horizontal or vertical), process connection (thread G ⅛" G ¼", G ¾"...) and electrical connection (leads or cable). Product variants described in the data sheet may differ from the product presentation and description. Type description Type 8181 © Christian Bürkert GmbH & Co. KG, Subject to alteration
