Madison Company Plastic Miniature Liquid Level Float Switch MS8000

The MS8000 miniature liquid level switch has a polypropylene stem and a polypropylene float and is equipped with a slosh shield. A slosh shield should be considered if your operating environment contains intensive agitation of the liquid, boiling fluids, or surging due to large inflows and outflows of liquid. These turbulent conditions may result in erratic float operation. If this is not the case, the M8000 is the equivalent switch without the slosh shield equipped. Polypropylene is typically suitable for use with acidic liquids such as those found in electroplating and metal cleaning. It is also a great option for lower temperature food operations (up to 105 degrees C) since Madison only incorporates polypropylene that is FDA approved for food contact. This material is a good choice for commercial appliances and equipment as well. The MS8000 is also available with a thermocouple or RTD integrated into the design. This elimates the need for more than multiple penetrations into the tank since both level and temperature may now be measured through one device.
