and filling simultaneously with a single device
• Adjustable sensitivity level from 1k to 200k Ohm
• Includes provision for Manual start
• Protects submersible pumps against dry running and prevents overfilling
• Enables maximum utilization of incoming liquid (eg. water) supply
• Specially designed corrosion and shock resistant sensors
to ensure trouble free operation.

Note :- In case of DOL starter connection with LLC,

The system starts up whenever the upper tank
requires liquid and the lower tank has sufficient level
to supply it, and it stops when the liquid reaches its
maximum level in the upper tank or if the Lower tank
reaches its minimum level. If all Sensors are non
conducting then Relay is "OFF''. If Liquid level
reaches "P1" Sensor then relay will be OFF
(maintains previous state). When the level reaches
"P2" Sensor then relay will be switched ON (As the
liquid level has reached maximum level of Lower
tank). Now Filling of Upper tank will start. When liquid
level reaches "P3" Sensor, relay will be ON
(maintains previous state). Now when liquid level
reaches "P4" Sensor relay will be switched "OFF" (As
Liquid level has reached maximum level in the Upper
tank). Now if Liquid level of upper tank is decreasing
and it goes below "P4" Sensor, then the relay will be
"OFF" (Maintains previous state), But when it falls
below "P3" level, then relay will be switched "ON" until
the liquid level is more than "P1" Sensor (i.e. until
there is enough liquid in the upper tank).
Upper Tank
When the level in the tank drops below the low
level Sensor, the relay energises. The relay then
remains energized until the level reaches the
high level Sensor. As soon as the high level
Sensor becomes submerged, the relay deenergizes and remains OFF until the level has
dropped sufficiently below the low level Sensor.
When "P3" & "P4" are non-conducting i.e. tank is
empty, Relay is "ON". Whenever water level
reaches "P3" Sensor, then again the relay will be
ON (Maintains previous state of relay). But when
water level touches the "P4" Sensor, then relay
will be switched "OFF" (As Liquid reaches the
maximum level). Again when water level
decreases below "P4" level, then the relay will be
switched "OFF"(Maintains previous state of
relay). When water level reaches below "P3",
then the relay will be switched "ON" (As the
Liquid reaches minimum level)
The output relay switches "ON"
which starts up the relay when the
Minimum level Sensor "P3" is no
longer in contact with the liquid and
switches "OFF" when the liquid
reaches "P3". This operation is
not recommended for pump
controlling.

The output relay switches ON, when liquid level
goes above a maximum level, fixed by the

Sensor, relay switches "OFF". This operation is

When the level in the tank rises sufficiently to

The relay then remains energized until the level has

A single pole electrode used for level control in wells or storage tanks. It comprises of stainless steel Sensor with plastic holder
and cable gland. A sealed ring and cable gland prevents liquid from entering the cable terminal connector and causing its
oxidation.
Maximum operating temperature : -10°C to + 65°C
Cable connection: Screw
The external cable diameter must be 1.5 mm to warrant perfect sealing.
