Why Choose the Lovato CGL125.5 31CGL1255 Single-Pole Level Electrode?

The Lovato CGL125.5 31CGL1255 is a single-pole electrode for conductive liquid level detection, designed for use with compatible level control equipment in tanks, vessels, boilers and industrial process systems. With a 500 mm electrode length, it provides a straightforward method of establishing a defined liquid detection point within a conductive medium.

The CGL125.5 operates as a probe within a conductivity-based level control system. When a conductive liquid reaches the electrode, the associated external level control electronics can detect the resulting electrical path and use this information for level indication, alarms, pump control or filling and draining functions. This simple operating principle makes electrode level sensing well suited to many water and conductive-liquid applications.

Designed for demanding process conditions, the 31CGL1255 features a stainless steel AISI 302 electrode, a maximum operating temperature of +180 °C and a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar. The probe uses a threaded rod and nut connection, weighs approximately 158 g and forms part of Lovato Electric's range of level controls, probes and electrodes.

Key Advantages

  • 500 mm single-pole electrode provides extended reach into tanks, vessels and process equipment.
  • Designed specifically for conductive liquid level detection.
  • Robust AISI 302 stainless steel electrode construction.
  • Suitable for operating temperatures up to +180 °C.
  • Supports applications with operating pressures up to 10 bar.
  • Simple electrode-based sensing supports reliable level alarms, pump control and process automation.

Key Features

  • Lovato Electric CGL125 series.
  • Single-pole conductive level electrode.
  • 500 mm electrode length.
  • Electrode manufactured from AISI 302 stainless steel.
  • Threaded rod with nut terminal connection.
  • Maximum operating temperature of +180 °C.
  • Maximum operating pressure of 10 bar.
  • Designed for use with external conductive level control electronics.

Reliable Conductive Liquid Level Detection

Conductive level sensing works by using the electrical conductivity of the liquid itself. The Lovato CGL125.5 electrode is positioned at the required detection height inside a tank or vessel and connected to compatible external level control electronics. When conductive liquid reaches the electrode, the controller detects the change in electrical condition and can initiate the required control function.

Depending on the associated controller and electrode arrangement, the 31CGL1255 can contribute to functions such as minimum or maximum level detection, pump starting and stopping, filling control, draining control and high- or low-level alarms. Its 500 mm probe length and high temperature and pressure capabilities make it particularly useful where a robust electrode must extend into industrial process equipment.

Typical Applications

  • Conductive liquid level detection in tanks and reservoirs.
  • Industrial boiler level monitoring systems.
  • Pump starting and stopping control.
  • High- and low-level alarm systems.
  • Filling and draining control for process vessels.
  • Industrial water and utility management systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Lovato 31CGL1255 used for?

The Lovato 31CGL1255 is a single-pole electrode for detecting the level of conductive liquids. It is installed in a tank, vessel or similar application and used with compatible external level control electronics.

How long is the electrode on the Lovato CGL125.5?

The CGL125.5 has a 500 mm electrode length, allowing the probe to extend into tanks, boilers and other process vessels to the required level detection point.

What material is the Lovato 31CGL1255 electrode made from?

The electrode rod is manufactured from AISI 302 stainless steel, providing a robust construction for industrial conductive liquid level sensing applications.

What temperature and pressure can the Lovato CGL125.5 withstand?

Lovato specifies a maximum operating temperature of +180 °C and a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar for the 31CGL1255 probe.

Can the Lovato 31CGL1255 operate as a standalone level sensor?

No. The CGL125.5 is the sensing electrode and requires suitable external level control electronics to detect the conductive path through the liquid and perform the required switching, alarm or pump-control function.
