Description
Float switches are simple, reliable devices used to detect the presence or absence of liquid at a specific level, or to control pumps and alarms based on fluid levels. They operate on the principle of buoyancy, using a floating element to activate a switch as the liquid level changes. Horizontal float switches are ideal for mounting in the side of a tank to monitor the tank levels.
