FLCS-01 Horizontal Float Switch

FLCS-01

Single pole float switch suitable for use with most liquids with a minimum specific gravity of 0.8. Acetal housing and Polypropylene float make this sensor suitable for use with drinking water, fuel or organic solvents. Float orientation determines normally open or normally closed (N/C with horizontal). Sensor is designed for side entry mounting with an EPDM sealing grommet and 100mm PVC cable. Power rating 250 VAC at 1 Amp (Max 15 Watts) in an operating temperature up to +60 C.

Datasheet

Horizontal Float Switch - FLCS-01

  • Description

Description

The FLCS-01 Horizontal Float Switch is a reliable side-entry liquid level sensor designed for various applications, including drinking water, general water levels, un-pressurised central heating systems, and fuel-level monitoring. This external fitting switch features a durable acetal housing with a polypropylene float and EPDM sealing grommet, ensuring a minimum specific gravity of 0.8 for effective operation. It offers rapid push-fit installation and utilises reed switch reliability, with a SPST and ruthenium contact material. The switch can be configured as normally open or closed by rotating the float and operates with a maximum switching voltage of 250 VAC, a maximum switching current of 1.0 A, and a maximum power of 15 watts. It can withstand temperatures up to 60°C and an operating pressure of 5. The electrical connection is via 0.1-meter long 22 AWG (16/0.2mm) PVC insulated black cables.

Features

  • Rapid push fit installation.
  • High or low sensing
  • Normally open or normally closed operation based on float orientation.
  • Reed switch reliability
  • Temperature range to 60°C
  • Sealing washers and materials suitable for a wide range of chemicals
  • 100mm flying lead
