15700835 – Murphy Lube Level Maintainer – LM500

Murphy Level Maintainer

LM500/LM500-TF

The LM500 maintains oil level on any size engine. It also supports installations that require a three-wire,snap-action switch. The form C (three-wire) contactallows a controller/annunciator to bewired as a closed loop system, resulting in a reliable fault-sensitive circuit. Refer to LM500 Series Flow Rate Chart for applicationdata. The Murphy LM500-TF Oil Level Maintainer includes a test feature that confirms both the float and switchare operating correctly with a single press of the test button. The LM500 series maintains the crankcase oil level of anengine, pump or compressor. Adjusted tothe correct running oil level, it will replenish oil as it isused. The low-level switch will alarm and/or shut-downthe equipment, if supply oil is lost and theequipmentcontinues to use oil. As crankcase oil level drops, the LM500 float alsodrops and opensthe Thumb-Valve™. This allows oil toflow from the supply tank through the LM500 and intothe crankcase. When proper level is achieved in thecrankcase, the LM500 float rises causing theThumbValve to close off further oil flow. The simple and uniqueThumb-Valve is non-cloggingand provides a positive, leak-free seal.If the clean oil supply is depleted and oil levelcontinues to fall, the low-level switch will operate analarm or equipment shutdown.

This product may vary on delivery times, as factories do not guarantee production due to lack of raw materials.
