Have you been looking for an APCO TL008 combination float switch and temperature sensor? If so, you are not alone! Unfortunately, APCO TL008 sensors can be difficult to find. The unit is largely listed as out of stock or unavailable …

The Disadvantages of Ultrasonic Liquid Level Sensors

August 30, 2017

When it comes to liquid level sensors, there are many different styles to choose from. Standard float switches are probably the most popular and well-known options, but there are also more sophisticated units like hydrostatic pressure sensors, optical liquid …

SMD Fluid Controls Named a “Key Vendor” in New Worldwide Market Report

August 22, 2017

In less than two years, SMD Fluid Controls has three times been named a major player in the global float switch marketplace. Most recently, Technavio’s report, Global Float Switch Market 2017-2021, named SMD Fluid Controls as one of the “key …

Continuous Liquid Level Sensors: Ultrasonic & Hydrostatic Pressure Sensors

August 17, 2017

In liquid level measurement, sensors can be thought of as having two general classes: point-level and continuous. Point-level liquid level sensors detect the absence or presence of liquid at a certain point. Overflow alarms and low-level alarms to detect leaks …

Non Contact Liquid Level Sensors

August 9, 2017

Most liquid level sensors such as traditional float switches need to be immersed at one point or another in the liquid medium being measured. With applications involving liquids like water, this is not an issue. But what about applications involving …

Liquid Level Sensors with No Moving Parts

August 4, 2017

For many people, a “liquid level sensor” is synonymous with “float switch.” Traditional float switches work thanks to a magnetic reed, breaking or connecting an electrical circuit when liquid levels reach a specified point via a specialized float. For most …

Level Sensors for Combustible Fluids from SMD Fluid Controls

May 31, 2017

Liquid level sensors are essential components in a variety of industrial applications. For many of these applications, the liquid media being measured is relatively benign, such as plain water and many non-corrosive chemicals. In applications involving combustible fluids or gases, …
