Low coolant level detection in large tractors is needed to protect the engine from overheating. This requires a simple, reliable sensing solution with long life to handle the conditions often present with agricultural equipment.
Application Challenge:Traditional float-type level switches often face durability and reliability issues in mobile agricultural equipment. Vibration from the moving vehicle can wear down the moving parts, leading to shorter life spans and mechanical failures. Float-type switches rely on physical movement of a mechanical float to detect falling coolant levels, which can result in delays or inaccuracies. Installation challenges, including the need for precise orientation, further complicate their use and can lead to operational failures. |
Application Solution:
Gems Sensors’ ULS-200 Solid-State Point-Level Sensor The Gems ULS-200 Solid-State Point-Level Sensor is designed to overcome the challenges posed by traditional float-type sensors. Featuring advanced solid-state technology, the ULS-200 eliminates moving parts, making it highly resistant
