LED illuminators

Jerguson NightStar illuminators are for use with its Magnicator II magnetic liquid level gages. An array of bright LEDs continually shine on the gage’s magnetic flag indicators to provide high contrast, 24 hour visibility in no-light or low-light environments. Operators can increase safety by easily and reliably verifying liquid levels, minimizing time spent in process areas.
