Heavy duty flanged chamber features removable float for ease of inspection and maintenance. The 221 Series also provides 1" NPT for standard external mounting. Socket weld hubs or flanges are optional. Rugged C1-75 construction is suitable for operation at 1000 psi (69 bar) at 100°F (38°C), and 850 psig (59 bar) at 475°F (246°C) with a minimum specific gravity of 0.75. C1-60 construction is suitable for operation at 600 psig (41 bar) at 100°F (38°C), and 550 psig (38 bar) at 475°F (246°C) with a minimum specific gravity of 0.60. Models featured can be ordered with various circuits including SPST, SPDT, or DPDT with hermetically sealed snap action or mercury contacts. A full range of enclosures are available including general purpose, weatherproof, explosion-proof, or explosion-proof – vapor proof.

FAQ

Questions

Question

Why is the minimum specific gravity important on the float level switches?

Answer

If a medium has a lower s.g. than the rated minimum for a float, the float will sink through the media and the switch will not operate.
