The IFM LMT110 is a compact and versatile level sensor designed for precise detection of liquids, viscous substances, and powders in a wide range of industrial applications. With its short probe design, dual digital outputs, and factory calibration for oil-based media, it delivers a reliable solution where space constraints and specialised media handling are key factors.

The sensor is factory set for oils and oil-based media, making it particularly well-suited for lubrication, hydraulic systems, and other applications where accurate monitoring of non-conductive fluids is essential. At the same time, the LMT110 is versatile enough to detect water-based liquids, viscous media, and powders, providing broad applicability across industries such as metalworking, automotive, and chemical processing. Its adaptability helps reduce the need for multiple sensor types, simplifying inventory management and system integration.

The LMT110’s compact 11 mm probe length is a key advantage in applications with limited space. It can be installed in small tanks, narrow containers, or tight machine housings without compromising performance. Despite its short probe size, it offers reliable and consistent level detection, making it suitable for precision systems where space efficiency is critical.

Featuring two digital outputs, the sensor allows operators to set up multiple switching points in a single device. This makes it highly effective for tasks such as minimum and maximum level monitoring, overflow prevention, or pump and valve control. The dual-output design reduces wiring complexity and enables more efficient system configurations.

Mechanically, the LMT110 employs a threaded G 1/2 sealing cone process connection, ensuring a secure fit and leak-free installation in demanding process environments. This robust connection standard provides long-term reliability under pressure and thermal stress, making the sensor suitable for continuous use in industrial environments.

For electrical reliability, the sensor incorporates gold-plated contacts, which enhance conductivity and resist corrosion, ensuring stable signal transmission and long service life. This detail is especially important in applications where continuous monitoring and high reliability are required.

The LMT110 is not suitable for every medium, and restrictions are outlined in the operating instructions under “Function and features.” Adhering to these guidelines ensures correct application and optimal sensor performance.

Typical uses of the LMT110 include monitoring hydraulic oil reservoirs, lubrication systems, coolant circuits, and powder-based processes. Its compact design, oil-optimised factory setting, and flexible dual-output functionality make it a valuable choice for engineers seeking both precision and versatility.

In summary, the IFM LMT110 delivers compact probe design, dual-output flexibility, robust installation, and oil-focused calibration. It is a practical and reliable solution for industries requiring accurate and efficient level detection in oil-based and multi-media applications.
