OPL Optical Liquid Level Sensors

APG

Automation Products Group, Inc.

®

Applications

The OPL series of sensors are

designed for low cost liquid level

monitoring and leak detection.

Typical industries served are:

semiconductor, clean water,

pharmaceutical, automotive OEM,

machine tool, home appliances such

as oil fitted heaters, and electrical

equipment such as liquid insulated

transformers and capacitors.

The optical principle employed

is suitable for pure liquids (no

suspended solids to coat sensor and

block optical beam). Typical liquids

sensed are: petroleum and vegetable

oils (diesel, kerosene, gasoline,

hydraulic, lubricant, transmission

fluid), alcohols (ethyl, methyl),

ethylene glycol (antifreeze) and pure

water (DI or distilled water).

Options

Polysulphone sensor body will

allow for use in caustic liquids

such as acids and alkalines. Check

chemical compatibility tables at the

APG website or other sources for

specific compatibility.
