REKA2000 - Low Voltage - Capacitive Level Regulator for Small Tanks

At just 250mm long with no moving parts, the Reka is particularly suitable for Header Tanks, Shallow Tanks and confined spaces where there is not enough space for the movement of a traditional Float Switch. This 12/24v compact level regulator is ideal for off-grid sites and mobile liquid storage tanks like water bowsers.

Suitable for Tank filling or maximum level control, high-level alarms or Flood Water detection. The REKA is only activated when immersed (see 2nd image). It does not react to splashes/dampness.

The REKA 2000 level regulator is a device that controls electronic equipment once it has reached a pre-established level. A capacity sensor is integrated in the plastic structure and this makes it suitable for a wide range of liquids. There are two holes within the housing of the Regulator to install the device near the pump.

The functioning principle of the device is based on capacitive variation caused by the liquid level in which the two extensions are immersed.

The electronic circuitry contained on the inside measures the variations and activates the switchover of the relay.

This low voltage model is fed by a 12/24vdc power supply (usually via battery). It has a programmed 3 second delayed ON/OFF (other settings are possible - between 0 and 8 seconds to order).

This compact level sensor, 12/24vdc model, is particularly suitable for marine use. At 12 V the REKA will power a 120W pump, at 24V it will power a 240W pump.

Can be used for controlling the levels of various liquids in tanks including: Water, Flood Water, Wine, Fruit Juice, Milk and Liquid Soaps.

This device can not be used in dirty water with solid debris, oils, fats and the like.
