GEMS Sensors 250930 – XLS-1 Ultrasonic Level Sensor, Wet Source, M12x1.0

• Actuation Condition: Wet Source
• No Moving Parts
• Zero Maintenance
• Ignores Condensation on Sensor
• Will Not Sense Foam as Liquid Microcontroller-Based Electronics

XLS-1 ultrasonic level sensors are compatible with water-based and hydrocarbon-based liquids and are perfect for applications where condensation may affect other sensing technologies. The XLS-1 is an ideal solution for sensing liquid levels in generators, water tanks, radiators, printers, and other industrial applications. XLS-1 ultrasonic level switches expand the Gems catalog of solid-state level sensors.

The XLS-1 – Ultrasonic Level Sensor is Gems’ rugged alternative to reed switch level sensors. They are compatible with water, water-based, and hydrocarbon-based liquids, and are perfect for applications where foam and condensation may affect other sensing technologies. The XLS-1 is an ideal solution for sensing liquid levels in generators, water tanks, radiators, printers, and other harsh industrial applications.

These Ultrasonic Level Sensors are designed for reliable performance during the most challenging applications. The XLS-1’s compact design allows for maximum flexibility and comes with six mounting options to ensure the sensors fit each customer’s specific application. There are no moving parts on the XLS-1, which means normal part wear won’t be an issue. The XLS-1’s advanced Ultrasonic Level Sensing technology is a unique design that reduces customer downtime.

The XLS-1 is ready to serve the most demanding applications in the following sectors:

• Agricultural
• Mining & Construction
• Municipality Safety
• Printing
• Specialty Vehicles

The XLS-1 Ultrasonic Level Sensor also has IP67 and IP6K9 K-rated electrical connections, which means it offers customers reliable resistance against moisture intrusion under limited submersion or powerful high-temperature water jets.

• Advanced ultrasonic level sensing technology – Uniquely designed to reduce customer downtime, the rugged and compact XLS-1 with a microcontroller has no moving parts and reliably senses oil, water, and harsh chemicals while ignoring foam and condensation.
• Moisture protection reliability for indoor and outdoor applications – In addition to meeting IP67, Gems XLS-1 meets IP6K9K – a more stringent requirement for high-pressure/ high-temperature washdowns. The industry-leading IP standard reduces customer worry about moisture ingress in tough environments.
• Multiple thread options – The XLS-1 product line offers six (6) standard thread options for ease of installation. The multiple thread options reduce design constraints and enable customers with complex systems to avoid lengthy design changes.
• Extensive pretesting reduces engineering cost and time to market – The XLS-1 comes pretested to industry-leading load (15 G), temperature (-40°F to 257°F/-40°C to 125°C), vibration (10 to 2000 Hz), and pressure (250 psi with capability up to 500 psi – consult factory) standards to reduce your overall product testing.
