Liquid Limit Detection Specialty
The K - HM26 - 2M - 261533 by Pepperl + Fuchs is a sensor designed for detecting limit values in liquids. A ring magnet integrated within the float activates the contacts inside the probe tube using its magnetic field. In a liquid - handling industrial process, like in a chemical plant, it can precisely determine when the liquid level reaches a certain point. The device can avoid switching point skipping caused by sudden level changes with the help of snap - on set collars on the probe tube. This feature ensures accurate and stable detection in various liquid - level monitoring scenarios.
Versatile Operating Conditions
This sensor can function under a wide range of operating conditions. It has a rated voltage of 250 V AC/DC, with a current consumption of 1 A and a power consumption of 40 VA. It can be used in any sequential circuit as long as the circuit can support its electrical values. In terms of temperature, the process temperature can range from - 30 °C to 150 °C (version LML), and the ambient temperature can be from - 20 °C to 70 °C. Also, it can withstand a process pressure (static pressure) of up to 25 bar. Such versatility allows it to be deployed in diverse industrial applications involving liquid handling.
Robust and Reliable Build
The K - HM26 - 2M - 261533 features a durable build. The media - contacting parts are made of stainless steel, which offers excellent corrosion resistance, crucial in harsh industrial environments with potentially corrosive liquids. It has a high degree of protection, with an IP66/IP68 rating, meaning it can resist dust and be immersed in water for a certain depth and time. Additionally, its design allows for mounting without removing the float, which simplifies installation and maintenance. All these aspects contribute to its reliable operation in industrial settings.
