The Shridhan MHFS Series is a range of Mini Horizontal Mounting Magnetic Float Level Switches designed for compact liquid level detection and switching applications.
MHFS switches are installed horizontally and can also be mounted vertically for applications such as flow detection. The switches provide actuation at high, low or intermediate liquid levels.
The switch action can be reversed by re-orienting the mounting. The series is available with different construction and process connection arrangements to suit equipment such as food equipment, refrigeration systems, hydraulic equipment, lubrication and filtration equipment and special purpose machines.
The MHFS Series uses a magnetic float level-switching principle. As the liquid level changes, the float moves with the liquid and actuates the internal magnetic switching element.
The switch changes state at the predetermined operating position and provides an electrical signal for liquid level detection or control.
The switch action can be reversed by changing the orientation of the mounting arrangement, as specified in the Shridhan brochure.
