BL Series

 

Features

Liquid Level Sensor for Mounting Pipe (Through-Beam)

● Detects liquid in a transparent/semitransparent pipe  

   diameter Ø6 to 13mm, thickness 1mm

● Compact size: W23×H14×L13mm

● Selectable Light ON/Dark ON operation mode  

   by operation mode switching button

● Easy to check operation status by operation mode indicator   

   [green LED (Light ON: on, Dark ON: off)],  

   operation indicator [red LED]

●  Built-in reverse polarity protection circuit and  

output short overcurrent protection circuit

● IP64 of protection structure (IEC standards)
