TCL001 Simple Float Switch

Float switches for horizontal installation are compact and are therefore ideal for use in small tanks, e.g. for generating alarm messages, leakage monitoring, dry and overflow protection or pump control. A magnet in the float body moves when the medium rises. This magnet causes the reed contact to be actuated when a predefined switching point is reached. By using reed contact technology, the float switches operate contact-free, wear-free and without energy and achieve a long service life. The reed contacts also have a high switching capacity. They are also easy to install and maintenance-free, i.e. commissioning and operating costs are minimised
