For over 75 years, Barksdale has been a trusted name in industrial control and monitoring, delivering precision-engineered solutions across sectors—including the increasingly complex world of wastewater management.

Why Instrumentation Matters in Wastewater Treatment

From lift stations to sludge tanks, accurate monitoring of pressure, level, flow, and temperature is essential. Aging infrastructure and evolving regulations demand reliable, adaptable instrumentation—and Barksdale delivers.

Solutions Built for Harsh Environments

Submersible Level Sensors

Designed for continuous level measurement in tough conditions, these sensors feature:

• Field-replaceable designs for easy maintenance.
• Measuring ranges from 2 to 1,150 ft wc.
• Optional flush sensors with protective cages for sludge-heavy applications.

Ideal for equalization basins, pump stations, and sludge tanks.

LevelSite® Magnetic Level Indicators

For visual level monitoring, LevelSite® offers:

• Ranges up to 65 feet.
• Corrosion-resistant materials like 316Ti stainless steel and titanium.
• Bright red/white flags for easy visibility.

Often paired with electronic sensors for redundancy and automation.

Electronic Pressure Switches

Combining switch, gauge, and transmitter functions, these compact devices offer:

• Pressure ranges from 3 to 9,000 PSI.
• Differential pressure monitoring from 5 to 500 PSI.
• IO-Link connectivity for smart integration.

Used in aeration, filtration, and chemical dosing systems.

Electronic Temperature Switches

Critical for processes like sludge digestion and thermal disinfection, these switches feature:

• -22°F to 284°F range.
• 3-in-1 functionality.
• Field programmability and IO-Link support.
