Why Choose the Finder 072.01.15 Suspended Level Monitoring Electrode?
The Finder 072.01.15 is a high-quality suspended electrode for conductive liquid level monitoring, supplied with a pre-attached 15 m cable. Designed as an accessory for compatible Finder 72 Series liquid level control relays, this probe provides a reliable sensing point for monitoring liquid levels in wells, reservoirs, storage tanks and other non-pressurised liquid containment systems.
Manufactured with a durable AISI 316L stainless steel electrode, the Finder 072.01.15 is suitable for applications involving electrically conductive liquids. Its integrated 1.5 mm² cable allows the electrode to be suspended at the required monitoring position, enabling compatible level control relays to detect the presence or absence of liquid and initiate the appropriate filling or emptying control sequence.
With a 15 m cable length, a maximum specified liquid temperature of +100 °C and construction suitable for specified food-processing applications, the Finder 072.01.15 offers a practical solution for industrial, commercial and agricultural liquid level monitoring. It is intended for use with compatible Finder level control relays and must be ordered separately from the relay itself.

Reliable Conductive Liquid Level Monitoring for Tanks, Wells and Reservoirs
The Finder 072.01.15 is designed to work with compatible Finder 72 Series level monitoring relays, which detect liquid levels by measuring electrical conductivity between installed electrodes. When a conductive liquid reaches or falls below a specified electrode position, the associated controller can detect the change and operate its output relay according to the selected filling or emptying function.
The probe is supplied with a 15 m cable, making it suitable for applications where the sensing point is located at a significant distance below the control equipment. Its suspended design allows the electrode to be positioned at the required monitoring height within a well, tank or reservoir. Multiple electrodes may be required where the controller is configured to monitor both minimum and maximum liquid levels.
The sensing element is manufactured from AISI 316L stainless steel, providing a durable electrode surface for suitable conductive liquids. Finder specifies a maximum liquid temperature of +100 °C for this electrode type. The probe is also identified as suitable for specified food-processing applications, making it useful in appropriately designed liquid handling and process control installations.
Unlike a float switch, the Finder 072.01.15 does not use a moving mechanical switching mechanism. Instead, it acts as a conductive sensing electrode connected to a compatible level monitoring relay. The controller interprets the sensing signal and performs the required switching action, such as starting or stopping a pump through a suitable control circuit.
The 072.01.15 is not a standalone level controller and does not directly switch pumps or other electrical loads. It must be connected to a compatible Finder level monitoring relay using the manufacturer's specified wiring arrangement. The number of electrodes required depends on the chosen control function, liquid conductivity and installation configuration.
Typical Applications
- Conductive liquid level monitoring in wells.
- Water level detection in non-pressurised reservoirs.
- Automatic tank filling and emptying control systems.
- Industrial liquid storage and transfer installations.
