Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ILMM5/90 Magnetic Level Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi ILMM5/90 is a robust stainless-steel magnetic liquid level sensor designed for dependable monitoring of liquid levels in tanks, vessels and industrial process equipment. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi ILMM series, it uses a float-operated magnetic reed-switch principle to provide simple and reliable level detection without complex sensing electronics.

The ILMM5/90 can provide normally-open (NO) or normally-closed (NC) switching operation, allowing the sensor to be adapted to the required high-level or low-level monitoring function. Its magnetic float changes the state of the internal reed contact as the liquid reaches the switching position, making it suitable for alarm, pump-control and process-monitoring circuits.

With its durable stainless-steel construction, the ILMM5/90 is intended for demanding industrial fluid-handling applications where mechanical strength and dependable switching are important. The simple magnetic operating principle also minimises mechanical complexity, providing a practical solution for continuous industrial service.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable magnetic liquid-level detection using proven reed-switch technology.
  • Supports normally-open (NO) or normally-closed (NC) operation to suit the application.
  • Durable stainless-steel construction for demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Magnetic Liquid-Level Monitoring

Magnetic level sensors operate by using the movement of a float to actuate an internal reed contact as the liquid level changes. Because the electrical switching element is magnetically actuated, the ILMM5/90 provides a simple and repeatable method of detecting when liquid reaches a predetermined level.

The ability to configure the switching function for normally-open or normally-closed operation makes the ILMM5/90 suitable for a variety of control strategies. It can be used to signal high or low liquid levels, initiate pump-control functions or provide level-status information to compatible industrial automation equipment.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial tank liquid-level monitoring.
  • Process vessels and storage containers.
  • High-level and low-level alarm systems.
  • Pump start and stop control.
  • Industrial fluid-management systems.
  • Machine coolant and lubricant reservoirs.
  • Process and manufacturing equipment.
  • Industrial automation and control systems.
