Descrizione
The KENCO Oil Level Controllers are designed to maintain the running oil level in the crankcase ofstationary engines, compressors, and mechanical lubricator boxes. The KENCO oil controller works inconjunction with an overhead oil supply system which feeds the oil level controller. As the oil is consumed,the oil controller supplies the required amount of oil to maintain a proper level in the crankcase. The oilcontroller maintains the proper amount of oil in the crankcase by using a float-controlled valve. The valveopens and closes as oil is needed in the crankcase to provide a constant oil level. The oil level switch in the K512-TB is a case to ground electric switch contactand switch contact for test buttonfornon-hazardouslocations. The level within the crankcase directly corresponds with the oil level in the oil level controllerhousing. If the oil level in the crankcase drops past the designated level, the switch will trip sending analarm.
