• The standard unit supports –100 °F to +390 °F (–70 °C to +200 °C).
• There are “medium temperature” and “high temperature” sensor options available that extend the upper range to +572 °F and +850 °F respectively.
• The standard pressure rating is up to 3000 psia (≈ 207 bar) for the standard construction.

If your application falls outside those ranges (especially on the high side), you’ll want to confirm with the manufacturer whether a custom or upgraded version is required.

• The standard process connection is 0.75" MNPT.
• Other sizes (0.5" and larger, plus flanges, sanitary styles, etc.) are available as options.
• The standard insertion length is 2.0" (i.e. the sensor’s wetted length).
• Custom insertion lengths from 0.5" up to 30 feet are offered.

You’ll need to choose or specify the insertion length that ensures proper probe reach into your vessel or pipe.

• The LS32CS offers DPDT relay contacts, rated at 5 A, 250 VAC.
• It has built-in self-test functionality at startup.
• No external heater power is required (the sensor is self-heating).
• Electronics are typically “l(fā)ocal” (i.e. housed with the sensor), with an ambient range of –40 °F to +140 °F (–40 °C to +60 °C).
• There is a “remote electronics” option for environments where it’s necessary to distance the electronics from extreme ambient temperature zones.
• Optional built-in RTD or thermocouple outputs (for continuous temperature monitoring) are available.

When specifying, you’ll want to confirm that the output/client interface (relay, RTD, etc.) matches your control system or PLC input requirements.

• The device can detect a level change as small as 0.03 inch (~0.76 mm).
• Its response time (wetting) is in the range of 0.1 to 1 second, depending on the fluid/media.
• Because there are no moving parts (it is thermal differential point sensing), it is less likely to stick, coat, or fail mechanically.
• The self-heating design helps improve repeatability.

In practice, media properties (viscosity, thermal conductivity, fouling tendencies) and installation (probe orientation, flow, turbulence) can affect sensitivity and reliability. It’s good to test in-situ or get performance assurance.

• The standard wetted-material is 316L stainless steel.
• Optional exotic alloys (Hastelloy, Monel, Inconel, etc.) are available for aggressive environments.
• The enclosure is explosion-proof, conforming to NEMA 3, 4X, 7, and 9, and is CSA, FM, and UL approved.
• There is an optional explosion-proof window (XW) for indicator viewing.
• The device carries a two-year workmanship warranty.

If your application is in a hazardous (explosive) environment or involves aggressive chemicals, make sure to confirm the exact certification classes and alloy compatibility.
