The SPice10205 is a low cost add-on for SPLat programmable OEM controllers. It provides for 6 levels of water level sensors. It is ideal for pump control panels, tank level control and other applications requiring water level detectors.
The principle of operation is that you have electrodes in the water. One electrode is a “common”. Typically this will be at the bottom of the tank, or if the tank is metallic it might be the tank itself. You then have one electrode per level that you need to sense. Once the water bridges the gap between the common electrode and a “level” electrode, the board senses the electrical conduction and provides an “ON” input to the controller.
NOTE: The animation shows 3 levels. The SPice10205 has 6 levels, while the SPice10200 has 2 levels + temperature.
Compatibility: MMi202, SL100, MS120
