Vector is a rugged, reliable and cost-effective Magnetic Level Indicator (MLI). Suitable for a variety of installations, Vector is precision-engineered and manufactured to ensure a long service life. Vector is built to the highest quality standards and is equipped with a high-visibility indicator which has a shatter-resistant viewing window. The Vector MLI virtually eliminates maintenance and is a great replacement for hard-to-see, leaky, sight and gauge glass indicators. Optional switches and transmitters are available to provide various output signals for level control.

Vector™ Magnetic Level Indicator
Measurement Principle
A float travels up and down in a chamber that is mounted to a liquid containing vessel. The float contains a magnetic assembly that interacts with an externally-mounted visual indicator. As the float follows the liquid surface or liquid-liquid interface, the magnetic field causes highly contrasting flags in the visual indicator to rotate. The result is a clearly defined representation of the liquid level in the vessel.

Technology of the Vector™ Magnetic Level Indicator
The appeal of magnetic level indicators is total isolation of the process within a sealed piping column. Elimination of leaking seals, clouded glasses, broken glass tubing, plus easy access cleaning and adaptation to a variety of mounting styles and process connections. Availability of switches and transmitters adds to their desirability by providing a much less expensive system that a buildup of sight glasses, alarm switches and transmitters, all separately piped to the vessel.
