Kobold NKP-64011.6 – NKP Side-Mounted Float Level Switch, M16 Bulkhead, Polypropylene, 1 m Cable
The Kobold NKP-64011.6 is a side-mounted float level switch from Kobold’s NKP series, with an M16 bulkhead connection, polypropylene construction and a 1 m cable. The bulkhead version mounts through a hole in the tank wall and is fixed with a nut, which makes it ideal for thin-walled plastic tanks without a threaded boss.
A hinged plastic float with a magnet moves with the liquid level and switches a hermetically sealed reed contact as the level passes the switch point. The function can be changed between normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) by rotating the switch 180°. The compact design is virtually maintenance-free, and polypropylene gives good chemical resistance for water and many process liquids.
