Madison M4548 tilt float switch is employed in wastewater treatment, oil & gas and manufacturing industries to monitor and control liquid levels. It relies on a buoyant structure that tilts with the liquid's rise or fall to safeguard against overflows or low liquid levels.
Working Mechanism:
- Madison tilt float switch operates uses a buoyant structure that tilts with changes in liquid levels.
- In its normally open state, the switch is triggered to close when the float tilts, completing an electrical circuit.
- This closure signals a control system or alarm, indicating a specific liquid level has been reached.
Features:
- Madison M4548 tilt float switch is driven by a micro-switch device installed inside the float on an anti-vibration mount and it features an integrated three-conductor wire.
- It has electrical insulation and is resistant to polar solvents (water, acids, alkalies and phosphate esters) and a wide range of ketones & alcohols.
- This Madison M Series tilt float switch is constructed of polypropylene for resistance to heat, oxidation, ozone and weather ageing.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What are the tips for installing Madison M4548 tilt float switch?
A.
- While installing this switch in a closed tank, give proper support to the lead cable.
- If you wish to install it in an open tank, clip the lead cable (using the included nylon cable tie) to the side, especially if excessive turbulence is experienced.
Q. How do I maintain this tilt float switch?
A. It generally requires minimal maintenance. Regular inspections for any signs of damage or corrosion, along with ensuring the buoyant float moves freely, can help maintain its functionality over time.
Q. Does this Madison tilt float switch require a power source?
A. Yes, it requires a 120 or 240V power source to operate.
