Three-channel Liquid Level Control Relay ELHART ELV3 series

Three-channel Liquid Level Control Relay ELHART ELV3 series

The ELHART ELV3 three-channel level control relay is used in automatic control systems for the liquid or bulk material level, together with level sensors and pumping equipment. It signals liquid presence or absence to relay control and protection circuits, and also connects conductive probes to digital inputs of PLCs, programmable relays, and temperature controllers.
