    Technical leaflet Float switch, type AKS 38

    Introduction AKS 38 is an electro-mechanical float switch


    designed to provide a reliable, electro-
    mechanical response to liquid level changes.

    The simple and basic design ensures long lifetime


    performance and reliable operation for many
    applications.

    AKS 38 can control liquid level in vessels and


    accumulators or can be used as a low/high level
    safety alarm.

    Features Based on Danfoss float type 38E The complete switch box can easily be
    DIN, ANSI and FPT/NPT flanges replaced without any interference with the
    refrigeration system.
    The switch box can be placed in any position
    on top of float housing for ease of installation. Switch box supplied with a DIN plug for easy
    installation and service.
    Adjustable liquid level differential switch
    point. Flanges included.
    Electric magnetic microswitch, mechanically
    activated.
