OFFICINE OROBICHE S.p.A. INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL FOR LEVEL SWITCHES SERIES 4070 1. INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION Series 4070 level switches have been designed for external lateral installation on pressure tanks in a vertical position. The models have one or two tripping units, each of which can be fitted with single (SPDT) or double exchange contacts (DPDT) for low/high level controls and/or alarms.
OFFICINE OROBICHE S.p.A. 3. OPERATING PRINCIPLE The level-switch acts on the basis of displacement. The displacer (1) is partially covered by the liquid and moves due to positive buoyancy: as it rises, he load on the spring (6) connected to a rod is reduced and so pushes a magnetic piston (2) upwards.
OFFICINE OROBICHE S.p.A. 5. COMMISSIONING Make sure that the expected working loads do not exceed the acceptable loads (maximum pressure and temperatures, minimum specific weight) and that the mains voltage matches that indicated on the instrument ratings plate. Check that the instrument trips correctly by changing the level of the liquid several times.
