Level Switches, All Types - (432 companies)
Level switches, all types, is a generic search form for devices that are used to detect liquid or powder levels, or interfaces between liquids. These level measurements are indicated via an electrical switching action. Search by Specification | Learn more about Level Switches, All Types
Liquid Level Switches - (321 companies)
Liquid level switches are used to detect specific liquid levels or interfaces between liquids. These level measurements are indicated via an electrical switching action. Search by Specification | Learn more about Liquid Level Switches
Level Sensors, All Types - (735 companies)
Level sensors are used to detect liquid or powder levels, or interfaces between liquids. There are two basic level-measurement types: continuous and point or multi-point. Search by Specification | Learn more about Level Sensors, All Types
Plastic Valves - (208 companies)
Plastic valves are made from plastic materials and are used in applications that require corrosion resistance and/or chemical handling. Search by Specification | Learn more about Plastic Valves
Mercury Switches - (7 companies)
Mercury switches consist of a mercury-filled tube with electrodes at each end. When the tube is tilted, the mercury flows to either end. This cuts off the circuit on one end and opens it on the other. These devices often function as on/off switches. Learn more about Mercury Switches
Dry Material (Powders) Level Switches - (51 companies)
Dry material (powders) level switches are used to measure levels of dry, solid materials via an electrical switching action. Search by Specification | Learn more about Dry Material (Powders) Level Switches
Oil and Water Separators - (265 companies)

Oil Skimmers - (99 companies)
Oil skimmers are remediation devices used to remove oil from the surface of water, solvents, cleaning solutions, and other fluids. There are two basic types of oil skimmers. One type is used to filter and remove oil, debris, and unwanted materials. The other type is used to recover or capture oil in a usable state. Search by Specification | Learn more about Oil Skimmers
Check Valves - (1193 companies)
Check valves are self-activating safety valves that permit gases and liquids to flow in only one direction, preventing process flow from reversing. They are classified as one-way directional valves.  Search by Specification | Learn more about Check Valves
Hydrometers - (47 companies)
Hydrometers are calibrated glass floats used to determine the specific gravity of a liquid Learn more about Hydrometers
Sapphire Materials and Components - (51 companies)
Sapphire materials and components consist of a single-crystal, ceramic form of aluminum oxide. They have superior hardness, mechanical and optical properties, and are used in jewel bearings, lasing rods, wear parts, wafer substrates and optics. Learn more about Sapphire Materials and Components
