Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ILSP2 Magnetic Level Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ILSP2 is a compact magnetic liquid level sensor designed for dependable level detection in tanks, reservoirs and industrial fluid-handling equipment. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi ILSP series, it combines a magnetic float with a dry reed contact to provide simple and reliable liquid-level switching.
The ILSP2 features a non-toxic polypropylene / plastic housing with a 44 mm diameter float. Its output can be configured for normally-open (NO) or normally-closed (NC) operation, allowing the same sensor to support different high- or low-level monitoring requirements.
The dry reed contact is rated for a maximum switching voltage of 250 V AC, maximum switching current of 3 A and maximum switching power of 100 VA. A 0.5 m cable, wide -25 to +100 °C operating temperature range and IP68 protection make the ILSP2 a practical solution for demanding industrial liquid-level applications.

Reliable Magnetic Liquid-Level Monitoring
The ILSP2 detects liquid level through the movement of a magnetic float, which actuates an internal dry reed contact when the liquid reaches the switching position. This straightforward operating principle provides repeatable level detection without requiring complex electronic sensing circuitry.
Its ability to provide normally-open or normally-closed operation makes the ILSP2 suitable for a variety of control strategies, including high-level alarms, low-level alarms and pump-control functions. The combination of a polypropylene housing, IP68 protection and a wide operating temperature range provides dependable performance in compatible industrial liquid applications.
