LM500 Series Level Maintainers

The LM500 maintains oil level on any size engine. It also supports installations that require a three-wire, snap-action switch. The form C (three-wire) contact allows a controller/annunciator to be wired as a closedloop system, resulting in a reliable fault-sensitive circuit. Refer to LM500 Series Flow Rate Chart for application data.
The FW Murphy LM500-TF Oil Level Maintainer includes a test feature that confirms both the float and switch are operating correctly with a single press of the test button.
