How does a floatless relay work?

A floatless relay is a device used to monitor liquid levels. It differs from traditional float switches in that its working principle is based on changes in conductivity or dielectric constant. Here is how a floatless relay works:

Conductivity Measurement

Floatless level relay detects the level of liquid through conductivity. When an electrode comes into contact with a liquid, if the liquid is conductive (such as water), electricity can pass through the contact between the liquid and the electrode, thus forming an electrical circuit. The conductivity of a liquid depends on its ion concentration and is usually a function of the liquid’s concentration. Therefore, the conductivity changes accordingly when the liquid level rises or falls.

Dielectric Constant Measurement

Another way of working is to determine the liquid level by measuring the dielectric constant of the medium. The dielectric constant is a measure of a medium’s ability to respond to an electric field, and the dielectric constant of a liquid typically changes as the liquid level changes. Floatless relays use electrodes or capacitive sensors to measure the dielectric constant of the medium and determine the fluid level based on these measurements.

Working Principle

Floatless relays usually contain one or more electrodes or sensors installed in the liquid container to measure the fluid level. When the fluid level reaches the position of the electrode or sensor, the switch triggers and starts or stops related equipment, such as pumps or valves, to control the liquid level.

Advantages of Floatless Level Relay

  • Long life: Floatless relays have no wearing parts such as mechanical floats, so they have a longer life and lower failure rate.
  • High accuracy: Electronic measurement can provide more precise liquid level control and is not limited by the properties of the liquid.
  • Rich functions: It has multi-functional options, such as automatic water supply and drainage control, multiple control modes, etc.

Disadvantages of Floatless Relay

  • Reliance on power: Floatless relays require power to operate the sensor and control unit and therefore may cause loss of level control during a power outage or circuit failure.
  • Not suitable for non-conductive liquids: Floatless relays usually rely on the conductivity of the liquid for liquid level control, and are unsuitable for non-conductive liquids such as distilled water, petroleum, and emulsions.
  • Higher cost: Compared with traditional float relays, floatless relays have higher manufacturing costs and better performance. For large enterprises, the input-output ratio is relatively considerable.
