C3945 & C3975 Continuous Level Switches: removal and replacement of flexible sensor strip can be easily accomplished on-site

C Series
Field-Repairable Continuous Level Switches

When your application calls for a sealed tank, or the installation does not lend itself to easy removal, Madison Company's C3945 and C3975 field-repairable continuous level switches should be considered.

The entire stem and face mount can be permanently sealed to the vessel. Should replacement of the reed switches become necessary, unscrewing the
top mount and removing the entire switch assembly can be accomplished without compromising the vessel's interior environment.

The ability to easily remove the C3945 and C3975 from a sealed tank allows most repairs to be completed on-site. When compared to conventional liquid level switches, this field-repairable continuous level switch eliminates the need for tank depressurization and reduces the chance of environmental contamination.
