Oil level monitoring OLC-D1-K

OLC-D1-K is an opto-electronic oil level monitoring using infrared light. It is mainly used for reciprocating compressors and differs from the other types of OLC-D1 mainly by a different prism unit. It is mounted into the bearing cover and consists of

a prism unit (screwed into the bearing cover) and
an opto-electronic unit (screwed into the prism unit, is integrated into the control of the system).

Sketch of the opto-electronic unit of OLC-D1. The OLC-K1 looks very similar, but has 6 cables instead of 5.

The component is part of the CM-RC assembly and cannot be ordered individually.
