Liquid Level Control Switch. W/ Braided Detachable Cable
This switch will open or close the electric circuit when liquid level reaches a specific position. It can be used to activate a pump when liquid level is low, or to open the heating circuit to prevent damage to the heater. For cutting off the heating circuit when liquid level is low, the sensor tip should be mounted downwards as shown below. Since the switch is rated for 0.8 Amp, a typical wiring is to put it in series with relay (or solid state relay) control loop.
This item comes with 8 ft braided cable with a mini mating connector. The braided cable adds an extra layer of metal braid between the TEFLON layers for more protection. The type of panel mount connectors is our mini connector (two pin). The mating connector is 2 ft 3 in (700 mm). User can use this cable without any soldering work.
Parts included (start from top left, clockwise): Float switch (FSW2) at the upper position (circuit closed), 8 ft braided cable, and the mating cable with a 2-pin miniRTDCON connector.
