and L1100 Liquid Level Switches
Please read the following instructions before installing. A visual
inspection for damage during shipping is recommended before mounting.
WARNING
BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION OF THIS MURPHY PRODUCT
Disconnect all electrical power to the machine.
Make sure the machine cannot operate during installation.
Follow all safety warnings of the machine manufacturer.

OBSERVE all pressure and electrical ratings and require-
ments for the devices and the operating environment.
BE SURE all pressure HAS BEEN REMOVED from the
vessel before opening any pressure connections.
Description
LS200
Liquid Level Switches with 2" NPT mounting are float
activated to operate an electrical SPDT snap switch (optional DPDT on
some models) for alarm or shutdown of an engine or electric motor. The
LS200 screws directly into the vessel wall and can be used with a weld
collar or external float chamber. L1100 models (1-1/2" NPT) are
available.
LS200NDVOR
is a float-activated, pneumatic-vent level device
used to operate dump valves or similar devices.
The LS200NDVOR provides a 2" NPT mounting with a pneumatic snap
action output for interfacing with pneumatic devices such as our DVU
scrubber dump valve or with other pneumatic instrumentation. This
unit is supplied with a pressure regulator and filter and Murphy
20BPG pressure gage which is recommended for improved system
life and trouble-free operation.
LS200NDVO
Pneumatic level switch with snap action Dump Valve Operator (DVO)
without the Pressure Regulator for those applications where the system
provides a filter regulator for "instrument quality" air or gas as the control
medium.
LS200N
Pneumatic level switch without the DVO and filter regulator.
