Float Switch Sensor For Water Level Controller With 2 Meter Wire

Float Switch Sensor For Water Level Controller With 2 Meter Wire

β‚Ή231.00Price

πŸ“Œ Overview

A Float Switch Sensor (with 2 meter wire) is a simple and reliable device used to automatically control water levels in tanks, sumps, and reservoirs.

πŸ‘‰ It works by floating on the water surface and switching ON/OFF based on the level.

🧠 Working Principle

  • The sensor contains a floating body + internal micro switch

  • When water level rises β†’ float tilts upward β†’ switch changes state

  • When water level drops β†’ float falls β†’ switch resets

πŸ‘‰ This action can:

  • Turn pump ON (low level)

  • Turn pump OFF (tank full)

βœ” Operates mechanically without direct contact electricity in water

πŸ”„ Working Example

Water LevelFloat PositionAction
LowDownPump ON
HighUpPump OFF

πŸ‘‰ Prevents:

  • ❌ Tank overflow

  • ❌ Dry running of motor

⚠️ Important Notes

  • ⚠️ Install with correct cable length and counterweight

  • ⚠️ Avoid direct heavy current β†’ use relay for safety

  • ⚠️ Keep away from turbulence (waves can cause flickering)

  • ⚠️ Ensure proper waterproof sealing

πŸ’¬ Real-world insight (from Reddit):

Waves can cause rapid ON/OFF switching if not stabilized
