Why Choose the Lovato CGL 125.3 31CGL1253 Level Electrode?

The Lovato CGL 125.3 31CGL1253 is a robust single-pole level electrode designed for detecting the level of electrically conductive liquids when connected to a compatible Lovato level control relay. It provides a reliable sensing point for automatic filling, emptying, alarm and liquid-level monitoring systems used in industrial installations.

Part of the Lovato CGL125 electrode range, the CGL 125.3 uses a durable stainless steel sensing electrode suitable for installation in tanks, reservoirs, vessels and process equipment. Its simple electrode-based operating principle has no moving sensing mechanism, making it particularly useful for dependable liquid-level monitoring in industrial automation systems.

The CGL 125.3 designation identifies the 300 mm electrode version, providing a practical sensing length for applications where the required detection point is relatively close to the mounting position. When combined with suitable Lovato conductive level-control electronics, it can form part of single-level or multi-level control arrangements.

Key Advantages

  • 300 mm single-pole electrode for conductive liquid detection.
  • Designed for use with Lovato liquid level control relays.
  • Stainless steel sensing electrode provides durable industrial construction.
  • No moving sensing mechanism, helping provide dependable long-term operation.
  • Suitable for automatic filling, emptying and level alarm functions.
  • Can be combined with additional electrodes for multi-level monitoring arrangements.
  • Suitable for tanks, reservoirs, vessels and industrial process equipment.

Key Features

  • Lovato CGL125 probe and electrode series.
  • Manufacturer part number: 31CGL1253.
  • Model: CGL 125.3.
  • Single-pole conductive liquid sensing electrode.
  • 300 mm electrode length.
  • Stainless steel electrode construction.
  • Designed for conductive liquid level monitoring.
  • Used with external electronic level-control equipment.
  • Suitable for industrial tank and process level applications.

Reliable Conductive Liquid Level Detection

Conductive level-control systems detect liquids by measuring electrical conductivity between installed electrodes or between an electrode and a suitable reference point. When the liquid reaches the sensing electrode, the connected level relay detects the resulting electrical condition and can switch pumps, valves, alarms or other control equipment.

The Lovato CGL 125.3 provides a straightforward and durable sensing solution for these systems. Its 300 mm stainless steel electrode allows the required switching level to be established inside a tank or vessel, while multiple electrodes can be positioned at different heights when separate minimum, maximum or alarm levels are required.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial liquid storage tanks.
  • Water tanks and reservoirs.
  • Automatic pump filling systems.
  • Automatic tank emptying systems.
  • High and low liquid-level monitoring.
  • Process vessels containing conductive liquids.
  • Overflow and minimum-level alarm systems.
  • Industrial automation and OEM liquid-handling equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Lovato CGL 125.3 31CGL1253 used for?

The Lovato 31CGL1253 is a single-pole sensing electrode used with compatible level-control electronics to detect electrically conductive liquids in tanks, reservoirs and industrial process vessels.

How long is the Lovato CGL 125.3 electrode?

The CGL 125.3 has a sensing electrode length of 300 mm.

What type of liquids can the 31CGL1253 detect?

The electrode is intended for electrically conductive liquids that can be monitored using a conductive level-control system.

Can the CGL 125.3 control a pump directly?

The CGL 125.3 is a sensing electrode rather than a standalone pump controller. It is connected to a compatible electronic level-control relay, which processes the electrode signal and controls the required switching function.

Can multiple CGL electrodes be used in one tank?

Yes. Conductive level-control installations can use multiple electrodes positioned at different heights to establish minimum, maximum and other required liquid-level sensing points when supported by the selected controller.
