Engineered for Safety in Hazardous Zones

Flame Proof Side Mounted Level Switches are purpose-built for hazardous areas where explosive gases may be present. Certified to IS/IEC 60079-1:2007/2014 for Gas Groups IIA and IIB, they offer uncompromising protection with robust aluminium alloy or stainless steel enclosures. These switches help maintain plant safety and operational continuity in industries like chemicals, oil & gas, and pharmaceuticals.

Reliable Performance and Versatile Mounting

Designed for consistent monitoring of liquid levels, these switches feature an adjustable float and corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction. With flanged or screwed mounting options and IP65/IP67 ingress protection, they adapt easily to diverse tank setups. Their micro-switch mechanism ensures swift and accurate response under varied operating pressures and temperatures.

Simplified Installation and Maintenance

These level switches are side-mounted for convenient access during installation and servicing. Cable entries are provided in standard 2 3/4" ET, with M20 as an option. The products modular, single-unit design and lightweight construction (approx. 1.2 kg) streamline both installation and ongoing maintenance. Their high mechanical life provides long-term reliability and reduced downtime.

FAQs of Flame Proof Side Mounted Level Switches:

Q: How do flame proof side mounted level switches operate in hazardous environments?

A: These switches use a micro switch-based mechanism to detect liquid levels, activating or deactivating based on float movement. Their flame-proof enclosure and adherence to IS/IEC 60079-1:2007/2014 ensures safe operation in explosive gas atmospheres, specifically Gas Groups IIA and IIB.

Q: What installation options are available for these level switches?

A: You can mount the switches using standard flanged or screwed connections. They are installed side-mounted onto tanks or vessels, offering easy access for setup and maintenance. Standard cable entries are 2 3/4" ET, with M20 available on request.

Q: Where can these side mounted switches be used?

A: These switches are ideal for use in industries exposed to hazardous gases, such as oil & gas, chemical processing, and other manufacturing plants that store or process flammable liquids. They are suitable for both indoor and outdoor settings due to their robust enclosure and ingress protection.

Q: What is the process for adjusting the float travel?

A: The float travel is adjustable to set the level at which the switch operates. This allows for customization to specific process needs, accommodating varying tank depths and desired switching points. Adjustments are typically made during installation or routine maintenance.

Q: What are the key benefits of using these flame proof level switches?

A: These switches offer enhanced safety in explosive atmospheres, reliable automatic level detection, rapid response time below 50 ms, and robust durability against corrosion and harsh environments. Their long mechanical life reduces the need for frequent replacements and maintenance.

Q: What electrical ratings and protection features do these switches provide?

A: They support voltages up to 230V AC/DC, with current ratings up to 10A, insulation resistance over 100 M at 500 VDC, and contact resistance below 100 m. Protection levels are rated IP65 or IP67, safeguarding against dust and water ingress.
