Dinel, s.r.o.      GPLS-25

   

Through wall level switches GPLS-25

 are intended for liquid (conductive and non-conductive) 

level detection on glass or plastic gauge-pipes, tubes and tanks. The sensor is equipped with high 

frequency technology,which allows reliable operation even for sensing of the adherent electrically 

conductive medium. The sensitivity and modes (O - normally open or C - normally closed) of the 

switches can be easily set by placing magnetic pen on sensitive spot. Output performance - transistor 

output with open collector (PNP) or two wire electronic switch (S). This connection is done by means 

of two wires directly into a circuit with relay or to binary input of control system.

1.  Basic description 

To ensure maximum safety of control processes, we have defined the following safety instructions 

and information. Each instruction is labelled with the appropriate pictogram.

Alert, warning, danger

This symbol informs you about particularly important instructions for installation and operation of 

equipment or dangerous situations that may occur during the installation and operation. Not observing 

these instructions may cause disturbance, damage or destruction of equipment or may cause injury.

Information

This symbol indicates particularly important characteristics of the device.

Note

This symbol indicates helpful additional information.

Safety

All operations described in this instruction manual have to be carried out by trained personnel 

or by an accredited person only. Warranty and post warranty service must be exclusively 

carried out by the manufacturer.
Improper use, installation or set-up of the sensor can lead to crashes in the application. 
The manufacturer is not responsible for improper use, loss of work caused by either direct 

or indirect damage, and for expenses incurred at the time of installation or during the period 

of use of the level sensors.

2.  Range of application

Detection of various types of liquids - water, disel, oil, cooling liquids, water solutions, some types 

of solvents. It is suitable for glass or plastic gauge-pipes, vessels, plastic container tanks, plastic 

tubs, pools, canisters, etc.
