MG8320 Series Float Level Switch

The MG8320 series float level switch is suitable for level control of open or pressurized vessels, and the switch is a passive contact output. When the liquid level is at the upper or lower limit position, the switch operates and outputs a switch signal.
The MG8320M is a manual self-test switch with an external manual detection and control mechanism. It can detect the controller and system while the equipment is in operation, ensuring the safe operation of the switch and system.
The MG8320H is a high-temperature resistance switch that can operate reliably even in harsh environments or even if temperatures reaches 932℉ (500℃).

Product Features

Extreme-Temperature Switching Capability

The MG8320H high-temperature version operates reliably from 150 °C to 500 °C, making it suitable for boilers, pressurized vessels, and high-heat industrial processes where conventional level switches fail.

Passive Contact Architecture for Safety-Critical Control

The switch adopts a passive contact output design, providing stable and interference-resistant switching signals. With contact ratings up to 5A @ 250VAC / 24VDC, it can directly drive alarms, pumps, and control circuits.

Precision Limit Detection with Mechanical Stability

The float mechanism delivers accurate level limit detection with a basic error of ±4 mm, ensuring consistent switching performance even under fluctuating process conditions and pressure variations up to 42 MPa.

Compact Side-Mount Design for Easy Integration

The side-mounted structure simplifies installation in existing tanks and pipelines, reducing downtime during commissioning. The compact mechanical design makes it suitable for space-limited equipment layouts.

Long-Life Industrial Structure with Low Maintenance

Built with stainless steel wetted parts and sealed to IP67/IP68, the MG8320 offers extended service life in harsh environments. Its mechanical simplicity minimizes maintenance requirements and total cost of ownership.
