DESCRIPTION
Maintain liquid level high and low limits with the Model
DPL Dual Point Level Switch. Units can be used for sin-
gle or dual point level control in semi-solid liquids, in-
dustrial slurries or heavy-bodied liquids like wastewater.
Standar 24 inch electrodes can be cut by the end-user to
a shorter length or lengthened by adding up to two 24
inch extensions (sold separately) to reach the maximum
recommended length of 72 inches. Model DPL contains
no moving parts to get stuck or wear out. Controller fea-
tures adjustable sensitivity and DIN rail-mountable sock-
et mount.
INSTALLATION
Conductivity Probes
1. Probes can be cut to length. Remove probes from
sensor head by carefully unthreading them from
inserts. Do not overtighten when re-installing.
2. Cut two (2) probes to the same length, these will be
the common and lower level probes. See figure 1.
3. Cut one (1) probe to the desired length for the upper
level of the tank. See figure 1.
4. Spacer should be located approximately 1 inch
(25.4 mm) from bottom of shortest probe.
5. If build up occurs on probes a short circuit could
occur. If this happens apply shrink tubing to the
probes leaving the last
1 /
2
inch (12.7 mm) bare.
Wiring (from sensor head to controller)
1. Install cable into sensor head through the compres-
sion fitting supplied.
2. Attach the black lead between the common probe
terminal and terminal five (5) on the socket mount.
See figure 2.
