Murphy L129 User Manual

Description
The L129 Series Lube Level Swichgage instrument is a com-
bination lube level indicating gauge with adjustable low and
high limit switches. It provides protection against low oil level or high level
caused by overfill or fuel or water seepage into the crankcase. A 6-3/4 inch
(171 mm) deep sight gauge allows you to check the condition and level of
your oil without shutting down the equipment.
Fingertip adjustable limit switch contacts are adjustable thru 4-7/8 inch (122
mm) range. When the float touches the high or low limit contact, a normal-
ly open circuit will close which can activate alarms and/or shutdown the
equipment.
There are two models in the L129 Series: L129 and L129CK1. The L129
model is designed for grounded, low voltage electrical systems. It features a
one-wire-to-ground electrical circuit. The L129CK1 is designed for applica-
tions requiring a three-wire, above ground electrical circuit. It features
ungrounded contacts and a conduit hub for electrical wiring connection.
