Siemens SITRANS LCS050 Compact Point level switch detects level in liquids. For use with overflow, high, low, and demand in constricted spaces, water-based liquids, slurries, and foam applications as well as pump protection. Compact design is ideal for confined spaces. Support for IO-link communications.

The SITRANS LCS050’s ultra-compact design, short insertion length of 15 mm (0.59 inch), and versatility in various applications in vessels or pipes, makes it a good replacement for traditional point level switches. Its advanced alternating capacitance field at the sensor tip ensures material detection based on changes in capacitance, providing repeatable performance. The PEEK probe is chemically resistant with an effective process operating temperature range from -20 to +100 °C (-4 to +212 °F) and supports sterilization in place at 135 °C (275 °F) for up to 1 hour. The product design ensures reliability in a vibrating environment such as agitated tanks up to 5 g.
