Hanging Float Switch, Plastic
€49.58
Suspended Float Switch Plastic
No drilling, no screws, no installation – simply lay the cable over the edge and drop the float in. Thanks to the integrated weight, it always hangs perfectly vertical and switches reliably from a level of about 4 cm. Whether water, heating oil, diesel, or vegetable oil – the suspended float switch made of PP with encapsulated reed contact and Wepuran® casting works everywhere. 6 m cable (extendable up to 50 m); just rotate 180° to switch between normally open and normally closed operation.
The perfect problem solver for anyone wanting to retrofit level monitoring: pump sump, cistern, rain barrel, garden pond, pool refill, or narrow shafts that are hard to access. Combined with the SHT 5002, it becomes a fully automatic water refill system in just five minutes – ideal for vacations or long hot periods.
This hanging float has been the secret favorite of gardeners, property managers, and pond enthusiasts for decades. Hang it once – and forget it for years. No corrosion, no maintenance, always reliable.
