Teklab, specialists in liquid level sensors and controllers, have a wide range of liquid level sensors based on digital technology in their portfolio in order to meet the growing market demand.

All the liquid level sensors are low cost, high technology products and have undergone stringent quality control tests.

They are programmable by microcontroller and their body material is compatible with most common chemical agents, food, beverage, oils and fuel.

The IR liquid level sensors are impervious to the hardness or the conductivity of liquid. Hence they can be used anywhere in the world under any environment as it is without requiring any special fine tuning. The output switching can be delayed programmatically in these liquid level sensors depending on application.
The delay times increase the reliability of sensor output, drastically cutting down false alarms. They are particularly useful in case of single sensor applications and in case of instability in liquid levels due to the presence of waves, bubbles, foam etc.

There is a wide variety of these electro optic systems available suited to diverse needs. Apart from general purpose liquid level sensors made
of plastic material, there are also metallic switches suitable for heavy duty industrial applications. These are made of corrosion resistant stainless steel. They can withstand harsh environments involving high temperature, pressure, vibration or shock.
The plastic liquid level sensors are normally made of 2 types of plastic materials.

The polysulphone plastic is resistant to mineral acids, alkali, salt solutions, detergents, hydrocarbon oils, alcohol solutions, steam, and hot water. They are suitable for food and medical use. To increase the mechanical strength, polysulphone is reinforced with fiber glass for use with
lubricant oils and diesel.
They can operate in the -20 °C to 85 °C temperature range and can work with DC as well as AC power.

These liquid level sensors are also integrated with thermostat units that monitor not only the liquid level but also its temperature.
The output can be on-off digital signals as well as proportional 4 to 20mA analogue signal in case of temperature. The threshold limits are programmable to suit customer’s needs. The high pressure and temperature IR liquid level sensors can monitor liquid levels in pressure vessels with pressures up to 150 bar and temperatures up to 125 °C. They consist of strong glass prism fused to stainless steel housing.

Another type of these electro optic systems is explosion proof liquid level sensors.

Finally we have IR liquid level sensors suitable for refrigeration and HVAC applications. They can be used to monitor refrigerated liquid levels and in CO2 monitoring systems. Apart from sensors, Teklab also manufacture liquid level controllers suitable for use with compressors etc. They monitor the oil level in compressor crankcase and inject oil when required. If the desired oil level is not reached after a preset time interval, the unit raises an alarm that can disable the compressor.

Since sensors are critical components in any high technology equipment where safety is paramount, their quality and reliability are very important. Teklab products are known for their stringent quality control and are designed to comply with various national and international standards. Those for alimentary use comply with FDA guidelines. Teklab has a long list of satisfied customers who vouch for the reliability of
their products.

You are in safe hands with Teklab!
