levelgaugeassemblyThe most common arrangement is known as Five Point control and is ideally suited to surge applications where the pumping condition does not vary significantly or where there is a fixed speed pump.

Typically a bypass level gauge will be fitted to the tank to which magnetically operated switches will be attached, these switches will be operated by a magnetic float within the level guage.

In cold environments the level will require insulation to prevent freezing of the water inside.

Additionally the surge tank will be provided with a solenoid activated valve which is arranged to release air from the vessel should the level detection instrumetation show that the liquid level has fallen below the normal level.
