LM300 SERIES
The LM300 Series Level Maintainer automatically adds oil to the crankcase as needed to keep the lube level normal.
Most models have built-in switches that will alarm and/or shut down the equipment if the makeup supply is depleted and engine oil level falls or if overfill conditions exist.
The LM300 can be used in engines, compressors, pumps, and coolers.
LM300 Series EX models (explosion-proof) are CSA certified for Class I, Division 1 Hazardous areas.
- LM300 : Level Maintainer only (no switches).
- LM301 : Low switch contacts for low-level shutdown or alarm. Four wires, SPDT.
- LM302 : Two switches for low and high-level shutdown or alarm. Four wires, DPST, wired N.O. in normal operating ranges.
- LM303 : Two switches for low and high-level shutdown or alarm. Four wires, DPST, wired N.C. in normal operating ranges.
- LM304 : Two switches. Alarm before shutdown on low level and shutdown on low-low level. Four wires, DPST, wired N.O. in normal operating ranges.
- LM305 : Two switches. Alarm before shutdown on low level and shutdown on low-low level. Four wires, DPST, wired N.C. in normal operating ranges.
