Four Level Extended Stem
Switch Sets

The maximum switching density in a single ERECTA SWITCH installation — four discrete liquid level setpoints from one tank penetration. Three mount styles, two housing configurations, three material options. Engineered for complex process logic where staged level control drives sequential equipment operation.

Level and Temperature Sensing — In One Assembly

ERECTA SWITCH Series 10 two, three, and four level extended stem sets can now be configured with one or more Series 11-800 bimetallic temperature switches substituted for any level switch position. Detect both critical liquid levels and temperature limits — freeze protection, overheat detection, or process limits — in a single tank penetration, from standard stock.

Material Configuration

Three Material Options — One Modular System

Every ERECTA SWITCH four-level set is available in Polypropylene, Acetal, or Kynar. The same modular configuration ships in all three. OEMs designing for multiple chemical environments often specify more than one.

PP — Polypropylene

General Chemical Service

The standard specification for aqueous and mildly aggressive environments

Handles the broadest range of industrial chemicals at the lowest cost. Resistant to acids, bases, bleach solutions, detergents, and most aqueous process fluids.

  • Wash cycle chemistry and detergent solutions
  • Cooling tower treatment chemicals
  • General process fluids and water systems
  • Food-grade cleaning solutions
AC — Acetal

Hydrocarbon & Solvent Service

For oils, fuels, and non-oxidizing environments where PP is insufficient

Superior dimensional stability and mechanical strength. Resistant to hydrocarbons, aliphatic solvents, oils, and fuels where fluid chemistry attacks polypropylene.

  • Hydraulic fluid and machine oil
  • Diesel fuel and petroleum distillates
  • Aliphatic solvent systems
  • Non-oxidizing process fluids
KR — Kynar (PVDF)

Aggressive Chemical & High-Purity Service

The specification when PP and Acetal fail

Handles strong oxidizers, halogenated solvents, concentrated acids, bromine, and semiconductor-grade process chemicals. Also correct for high-purity systems where material leaching is unacceptable.

  • Semiconductor wet bench chemistry
  • Chlorine, bromine, strong oxidizer service
  • Concentrated mineral acids
  • High-purity and ultra-pure process fluids

Material suffix appended to part number at time of order: 10-715-PP-12 (polypropylene, 12″) · 10-715-AC-12 (acetal) · 10-715-KR-12 (Kynar). Same ERECTA SWITCH set, same configuration — different material suffix. Contact us for chemical compatibility guidance on your specific fluid.

Four Level Switch Sets — All 5 Configurations

Organized by mount type, then housing style. Each set ships complete with four switches, connectors, spacers, and housing. Precision nipples (10-715) are required for each switch position and are sold separately.

Precision nipples (10-715) are required and sold separately. Each of the four switch positions requires one nipple to set the liquid level at actuation. The upper switch may mount directly to the receptacle without a nipple. Use the Nipple Length Calculator below before ordering.

Slosh shields are not available for four-level sets. The tight stem spacing required to fit four switch positions within the assembly geometry, combined with the outside-in installation requirement, makes slosh shield installation physically impractical. For agitated liquid applications requiring four-level control, consult Compac for application-specific guidance.

Four discrete level setpoints — full alarm, upper operating, lower operating, and empty shutoff — from a single 2″ NPT bung using the compact receptacle housing. The removable 10-700-AS adapter enables outside-in installation with no internal tank access. This is the maximum switching density available in a single ERECTA SWITCH bung-mount installation. Specify nipple lengths for all four positions at time of order.

2″ AdapterRelay Housing

Four-level monitoring for 2″ bung tanks with integrated relay control at the mount point. The FR ABS relay housing consolidates four switching points, relay logic, and conduit attachment into one outside-in bung-mount assembly. Choose the 10-406 when your four-level design requires on-board relay logic at the tank — the most capable self-contained level control assembly available for a 2″ NPT bung.

Four-level monitoring through a smooth-cut hole in a flat tank wall or lid — no NPT port required — with the compact receptacle housing. Cut a 1.65–2.3″ hole; outer flange nut with dual O-ring seal clamps from outside, inner nut secures from inside. Four switch positions deliver full process logic from a single flat-wall penetration. Flange nuts in PP, Acetal, or Kynar to match your fluid chemistry.

Four-level monitoring for thin-wall plastic tanks and lids — outside-in, no hardware, no internal access. The most switching density achievable from a single 1-9/16″ pop-in penetration. Snap the 10-702-R1 receptacle in from outside; the O-ring seals the wall for a liquid-tight installation. Wall must be plastic, 0.062–0.078″ thick. Four switch positions from one snap-in point is the highest integration efficiency in Series 10 for injection-molded enclosures and polyethylene reservoirs.
