RSF80 Series Float Switch

The RSF80 series are designed for mounting through the wall of a tank, via ½” NPT thread without requiring access to the inside of the tank.

They are manufactured in a range of plastics to suit most commonly used liquids. The switch can be fitted to achieve either make-on-rise (N/O) or make-on-fall (N/C) action by simply rotating through 180º. Available with either flying leads or an M12 circular connector socket. Cables are available for use with M12 connector versions.

Features

  • ½” NPT external mount
  • Available in Nylon, Polypropylene, PPS or PVDF
  • WRAS and NSF Approved versions
  • Many variants are UL-recognized components File No. E171218
  • Flying lead or M12 connection

Applications

  • Diesel generators
  • Hydraulic oil
  • Gearbox oil levels

RSF66 Dual Switch Point Float Switch

The RSF66 float switch series is designed to offer a number of switching options to meet a variety of system requirements. These are manufactured in PPS (Polyphenylene Sulphide), which is compatible with a wide range of liquids.

The single float types are generally used in systems with PLC control of processes. The dual float versions can be used for controlling the filling or emptying of tanks via electromechanical relays.

Features

  • High- & Low-level switching
  • PPS material
  • Versions for Filling or Emptying Control
  • Many variants are UL-recognized components File No. E171218
  • WRAS and NSF Approved

Applications

  • Industrial washing machines
  • Domestic and industrial water heaters
  • Septic tanks

SSF212 Series Float Switch

The SSF212 series are horizontally mounted switches that are fitted via a 1/2” NPT thread from the outside of the tank, so does not require access to the inside of the tank. These are manufactured in SS 304 & 316 and will work in liquids of SG 0.8 minimum.

The switch action may be reversed by mounting the device with the orientation arrow pointing downwards, instead of the normal upwards direction. These are available with either 100cm flying lead, DIN 43650 plug & socket, or M12 round connection. Cable sets are available for use with M12 connection versions.

Features

  • External fitting via 1/2” NPT thread
  • SS 316 float
  • Compact switch design
  • High Temperature version available (180ºC)
  • User configurable N/O (make on rise) or N/C (make on fall)

Applications

  • Liquid level detection
  • Pump and level control
  • Industrial equipment
