Description
The float level switch AC-WS-FS1 is a versatile and reliable device designed for horizontal mounting, primarily used for monitoring water levels in various applications. This float level switch is particularly suitable for integration with Mobeye products, e.g. as a second water level sensor for the Mobeye WaterGuard CM4300FS.
The Mobeye AC-WS-FS1 is engineered to detect not only water but also water-based liquids, including acids. Ideal for use in water tanks. This float level switch can serve as a secondary water level sensor, providing redundancy and ensuring that you have multiple data points for enhanced accuracy.
Polypropylene and nylon components offer durability and chemical resistance, while a silicone nut and sealing guarantee waterproof reliability, even when submerged.
How does the float level switch work
The horizontal float switch consists of a reed switch, a magnet and a float. When aligned horizontally, the movable part (the float) will hang down, and the rising water level will close it. Closing the magnet results in a closed loop. It is possible to install the switch as a normally open (NO) or, conversely, as a normally closed (NC). With an NC mounting, the water level will open the switch.
The float switch can be used with any system with NO / NC input. Cable length is 200 centimeters. An extension is possible.
Tip!
If there is no attachment point for the switch, we recommend mounting an auxiliary rod with a hole as attachment point.
Applications
- Residential Water Tanks: Ensure a consistent water supply for your home with the Mobeye WaterGuard CM4300FS installed in your water tank. Real-time water level data allows you to plan refills and address potential issues promptly.
- Industrial Liquids: In industrial settings where precise monitoring of liquids is paramount, this switch shines. Prevent overflows, leaks, and costly downtime with reliable liquid level detection.
- Chemical Storage: The AC-WS-FS1’s ability to detect water-based liquids, including acids, makes it an ideal choice for chemical storage facilities. Add an extra layer of protection against accidental spills or leaks.
- Environmental Monitoring: Utilize this float switch in environmental monitoring systems to track water levels in reservoirs, rivers, and other bodies of water. It aids in flood prediction and ensures accurate data collection for research purposes.
