Description

The sensor operates on a simple mechanical principle: as the liquid level rises or falls, the buoyant float ball tilts, actuating an internal sealed reed or micro switch. This creates a clean open/close electrical contact suitable for direct integration with pump controllers, alarm circuits, or PLC digital inputs.

Built with corrosion-resistant materials, it is engineered for long-term reliability in varied liquid environments, including aquariums, water storage tanks, and horticultural systems. Its operational temperature range of -10°C to 60°C ensures stable performance in both indoor and sheltered outdoor installations.

Key Features

  • Reliable mechanical switching with a precise 15° to 20° actuation angle for consistent level detection
  • Robust electrical rating supports up to 110VDC and 1A continuous current for direct device control
  • Anti-corrosion float and body materials ensure durability in freshwater, saltwater, and chemical applications
  • Compact form factor (85mm body length) allows for flexible mounting in tanks, sumps, and reservoirs
  • Pre-attached 40cm cable with stripped ends for quick wiring to terminal blocks or connectors
  • Wide operating temperature range from -10°C to 60°C for use in diverse environmental conditions
  • Simple two-wire (normally open or closed) output for easy integration with most control systems
  • High-value build optimized for cost-effective liquid level monitoring in industrial and hobbyist projects

Applications

  • Automatic pump control in residential water storage tanks and industrial sump systems
  • High/low level alarm triggering in aquaculture tanks, hydroponic nutrient reservoirs, and aquarium filtration
  • Liquid level monitoring for pet water bowls, gardening irrigation tanks, and rainwater harvesting
  • Overflow prevention and dry-run protection for pumps in chemical processing or water treatment

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum voltage and current this float switch can handle?

This float switch is rated for a maximum switching voltage of 110 VDC and a continuous current of 1 Amp. It can handle pulse currents up to 0.5A. Ensure your control circuit operates within these limits to prevent contact damage or failure.

How does the switching mechanism work, and what is the actuation angle?

The switch uses a magnetic reed sealed inside the stem, actuated by a magnet in the float ball. As the liquid level changes, the float tilts. The switch changes state (ON/OFF) within an approximate tilt angle of 15 to 20 degrees, with a total float movement of 70 degrees.

Is this sensor suitable for use in saltwater or corrosive liquids?

Yes, the sensor features anti-corrosion construction on the float and body, making it suitable for applications involving freshwater, saltwater aquariums, hydroponic nutrient solutions, and other mildly corrosive liquids. For highly aggressive chemicals, verify material compatibility.

How do I wire and install this float switch in my tank?

The switch has two wires for connection (typically a normally open configuration). Mount the sensor vertically on the tank wall at the desired level using the provided thread or a bracket. Connect the wires in series with your pump, relay, or alarm circuit, respecting the voltage and current ratings.
