Level Control and Signaling Device UKS-1

Purpose

Level control and signaling device UKS-1 is designed for automation of technological processes related to electrically conductive liquid level control in tanks, settling tanks and other reservoirs.

Application Area

Food, chemical, enrichment and other industries.

Principle of Operation

The operating principle of device UKS-1 is based on creating an electrical circuit between electrodes of a conductometric sensor installed at the controlled level and activating a signaling relay.

Product Composition

Device UKS-1 consists of a relay unit and three conductometric sensors. For signaling and controlling technological equipment, the relay unit has three electromagnetic relays, each of which is activated when controlled liquid appears between electrodes of the corresponding sensor.

Advantages

Ability to control not only liquid level in tanks, but also presence of liquid in trays as a result of tank overflow, and also signal the degree of tray washing from spilled solutions
High reliability
No moving parts
