Steel Float Switch | 10W Pump Control | Tank Water Level Sensor

This stainless steel float switch helps you manage liquid levels in a tank automatically. A magnetic float moves with the liquid. This movement activates an internal reed switch. Its 304 stainless steel body resists corrosion and handles higher temperatures than plastic models. Features and Benefits - 304 Stainless Steel Construction - Resists corrosion. It works with various liquids, including water, oils, and some chemicals. - Reversible Float Design - You can set it as normally open or normally closed. Just flip the float. - Vertical or Horizontal Mounting - Install it from the top or side of a tank. This fits your specific setup. - 10W Power Rating - It can directly control a small pump. Or, it can signal a relay or PLC for larger systems. Applications - It activates sump pumps to prevent basement flooding. - It helps maintain water levels in aquariums or hydroponic systems. - It automates fill or drain cycles in a water tank. What It Is This Steel Float Switch is a sensor designed for automated tank liquid level control. It operates as a physical switch, utilising a buoyant float that moves with the liquid level. This movement triggers an internal switch, typically a reed switch, to open or close an electrical circuit. This particular model has a 10W power rating, making it suitable for controlling pumps or other devices within this wattage. Its stainless steel construction offers durability in various liquid environments. Key Uses & Applications The primary application for this float switch is tank liquid level control. It can be used to automatically start or stop a pump based on the water level within a tank. For example, it can be wired to activate a pump when the water level drops below a certain point, or to deactivate a pump when the tank is full. Its 10W power rating makes it suitable for smaller pump control tasks. The stainless steel material ensures suitability for water and other compatible liquids. How to Choose When selecting a float switch, consider the intended application and the power rating required. This 10W Steel Float Switch is designed for tank liquid level control. Check the material compatibility for the liquid it will be immersed in; this product is stainless steel. Understand how the switch operates – whether it closes a circuit on a rising or falling level, or if it provides both normally open and normally closed contacts. Ensure the flexible cable length is adequate for your installation and consider any required mounting hardware.
