Float Switch for Water Tanks | 3 Meter Cable Controller | M15 Series Sensor

This M15 float switch turns a pump on or off to control liquid levels in a tank or sump. Its sealed polypropylene body is fully submersible. It uses a simple, dependable mechanism to activate your pump. This cable float switch provides a straightforward way to automate water drainage or filling. Features and Benefits - Resists Corrosion - The polypropylene shell and PVC/rubber cable hold up in wastewater, septic tanks, or mildly acidic solutions. - IP68 Waterproof - It's completely sealed against dust. It can stay submerged in water without problems. - Adjustable Activation - A counterweight slides along the cable. This lets you set the exact water depth for the pump to turn on. - Wiring Options - Models like the M15-2 handle one function (fill or empty). The M15-3 has wiring for both, offering more uses. Applications - Sump Pump Control - Use it as a submersible pump float switch. It helps keep a basement or crawl space dry. - Water Tank Control - Connect it to a pump. It will maintain the water level in a reservoir or holding tank automatically. - Wastewater and Drainage - This float sensor works for septic systems, ponds, and industrial pits. What It Is This product is a float switch designed for controlling water levels in tanks. Specifically, it is an M15 Series Sensor, known as the M15-2, M15-3, M15-4, or M15-5 3m Cable Controller Float Switch. A float switch is a type of sensor used to detect the level of liquid within a tank or other container. It operates as a physical switch, activating or deactivating based on the water level. This particular model comes with a flexible cable, measuring 3 metres in length, allowing for versatile installation. Key Uses & Applications This float switch is primarily used for liquid fluid water level control. Its function is to provide an automated switch for various applications involving water tanks. Common uses include: - Automatically starting a pump when water levels drop below a certain point. - Automatically stopping a pump when water levels reach a desired high point. - Signalling an alarm when water levels are too high or too low. - Controlling filling or emptying operations in water storage tanks. The 3-metre cable allows for installation in a range of tank sizes and depths. How to Choose When selecting a float switch, consider the cable length required for your specific tank and application. This product offers a 3-metre cable, which is suitable for many standard water tanks. The M15 Series Sensor is a type of float switch controller contactor sensor. Float switches work by using a buoyant float that moves with the liquid level. This movement then triggers an internal switch or relay, either opening or closing an electrical circuit. Ensure the float switch type is appropriate for the liquid and environment, and verify the cable length meets your installation needs.
