Top Mount Magnetic Level Gauges - Made in the USA - 2 Week Lead Time
The KOBOLD NBK-04 Top Mount Magnetic Level Gauge is made in the USA, features a two week lead time, and combines the rugged simplicity of our NBK Series Magnetic Level Gauges with above-tank liquid level indication. These metal level indicators are used for continuous indication, transmission and monitoring of tank levels. A sealed float inside the tank is connected to a magnetic carrier in the indicating tube. The magnetic carrier operates magnetic roller indicators on the local level display as well as optional adjustable level switches and level transmitter. The magnetic carrier is located within the measuring tube and operates the level indicator, switches and transmitters in a non-contacting fashion.
Standard Side Mount Magnetic Level Gauges
For a side mount installation offering longer length indicators for taller tanks or for higher pressure specifications, consider the NBK Magnetic Level Gauge.
Compact Magnetic Level Gauges
For side mount applications with shorter tanks or lower pressure requirements, consider the compact NBK-M Compact Magnetic Level Gauge. It provides the same rugged and reliable measurement as the standard NBK for a fraction of the cost and is still made in the USA.
Application Guide Required for Product Specification
Every NBK order includes free application verification by a KOBOLD engineer. MLI part numbers are easy to get wrong — configuration options interact, and combinations that look valid on paper sometimes can’t be built or won’t perform in your process. Before we fabricate anything, our engineers confirm that the part number you’ve spec’d is the right one for your exact application, so your gauge is right the first time. Have your details ready? Download the Application Guide from the Resources tab above and send it to customerservice@koboldusa.com — or skip the paperwork and schedule a free engineering consultation, and we’ll capture everything in one call. Either way, you’ll have a verified quote fast and a finished gauge typically in two weeks or less.
The Process
- Complete the Application Guide - Provide detailed information about your specific application
- Technical Review - Our engineering team reviews your requirements
- Product Specification - We specify the exact configuration for your needs
- Quotation & Ordering - Receive your custom quote with precise part numbers
Important Notice
Unless this is a repeat order of a previously specified product with Kobold, we cannot accept orders or provide quotations without a completed Application Guide. Product numbers selected without proper application review may not meet your system requirements and could result in performance issues or compatibility problems.
Even if you believe you've identified the correct part number, the Application Guide process is required to verify compatibility and ensure a streamlined quote/order process.
