Madison point level float switches use reed switch technology that is simple, reliable and durable. They operate in an on/off state and are used to control an external device such as an alarm or an on/off switch. Certain point level float switches are offered with field-adjustable stem lengths. This provides an OEM with the advantage of using only one or two sensors for their application instead of several. General applications for point level sensors include high-low level alarm triggers, overflow or spill prevention, and pump control. Multi-level float switches can be configured for specific applications.

A magnetic float travels up and down the stem between float stops actuating or de-actuating a dry contact reed switch encapsulated inside the stem. When the magnetic field comes in close proximity to the reed switch, the float switch contact closes.

Float Switch operation is determined in a dry condition (Empty Tank) with the installation fitting up and the float at rest against the lower float stop for vertical float switches. For horizontally mounted float switches, the float switch assembly can be rotated 180 degrees for normally open or normally closed operation.

Other applications include measurement of liquid layers, such as oil/water, liquid material inventory, flow rate management, and in high temperature, high pressure and corrosive environments. Continuous float level sensors are best used with clean liquids and are not affected by turbulent conditions.

Pressure Sensors & Transducers

Setra Systems designs and manufactures premium pressure sensors. For over 50 years, Setra has developed a unique understanding of pressure sensing technology and their team of engineers designs some of the most robust, accurate, and reliable capacitive sensing transducers available.

• Differential Pressure Sensors:  Setra’s differential pressure sensors are known for their quality and reliability. Designed with premium capacitive sensing technology, Setra offers single-range and multi-range (field selectable) pressure sensors. Capable of measuring both liquid and gasses, Setra has the product to meet a breadth of HVAC applications and can be trusted in your most critical applications.
• Absolute Pressure Sensors: Absolute pressure is measured relative to a full vacuum. In contrast, pressure that is measured against atmospheric pressure (also known as barometric pressure) is called gauge pressure. A full vacuum has an absolute pressure reading of 0 PSIA and the average barometric pressure at sea level is ~14.7 PSIA
• Gauge Pressure Sensors
• Ultra High Purity (UHP) Pressure Transducers
• Barometric Pressure Sensors:  Barometric pressure sensors are designed to measure changes in atmospheric pressure. Setra’s line of barometric pressure transducers is trusted in some of the most demanding applications including weather stations, data buoys, aircraft altimeter re-certification, and wind assessment and high-altitude research balloons. When accuracy and stability matter, choose the barometric pressure transducers trusted by multiple Government organizations including the FAA and NOAA.
• Compound Pressure Transducers:  allows users to measure both negative and positive pressure. Compound pressure transducers are zeroed to atmospheric pressure. Applications for compound pressure transducers include HVAC/R equipment, industrial compressors, and water pumps. Setra Systems offers a full line of rugged, reliable, and accurate compound pressure sensors.
