Types of Level Float Switches for Onboard Pumps
Magnetic Float Switches
Description: These use a float containing a magnet that activates or deactivates a switch inside the housing when the float reaches a predefined level.
Advantages: Reliable, simple, contactless, and suitable for marine environments.
Applications: Ideal for bilge pumps, freshwater tanks, and drainage systems.
Contact Float Switches
Description: These use a float with an electrical contact to directly control the pump. When the liquid level reaches a threshold, the contact opens or closes.
Advantages: Easy to install and use, directly integrated into the electrical circuit.
Applications: Used for marine applications such as bilge pumps and wastewater management systems.
Level Sensor Float Switches
Description: These use electronic sensors to detect the liquid level. The sensors can be capacitive, ultrasonic, or optical.
Advantages: High precision, capable of measuring different levels, not just high and low thresholds.
Applications: Advanced monitoring systems, large-capacity tanks, and systems requiring precise detection.
LED Wire Float Switches
Description: These integrate LEDs to visually indicate the liquid level while offering detection and control functionality.
Advantages: Provides a clear visual indication of the liquid level, useful in systems where visual feedback is important.
Applications: Freshwater tanks, monitoring systems where visibility of the level is crucial.
