MLC-70 - Float Level Switch
The MLC-70 float level switch sends an electrical signal in response to refrigerant liquid level changes.
Applications
Typical applications include separator vessels, chillers, intercoolers, and other industrial refrigeration equipment that require liquid level control or monitoring.
Technical Characteristics
- Compact dimensions.
- Simple operation.
- Operating unit components and wetted parts in type 316 stainless steel.
- Available with ice-breaker and without ice-breaker versions.

Technical Characteristics
- Operation type
- Magnetic float level switch with external SPDT microswitch
- Pressure range
- Working pressure: 31 bar, 3 MPa, 450 psig
- Temperature range
- Ambient temperature: -45 deg C to 65 deg C; Operating temperature range: -45 deg C to 65 deg C; Refrigerant working temperature: -40 deg C to 80 deg C
- Mounting orientation
- Vertical mounting
- Installation constraints
- Must be mounted vertically, For ammonia applications, avoid level interference with the lowest equilibrium level, Service valves at MLC-70 connections should be used with stems in the horizontal direction, When several MLC units are mounted on the same control column, use manual service balance valves only at the top and bottom of the column
