FlneTek SIDE MOUNTING FLOAT SWITCH e-mail: info@fine-tek.com

Tel: 886-2-22696789 Fax: 886-2-22686682

Principle
Simple theory as liquid buoyancy is utilized for
the main principle of this "FF" series. A change of
liquid level correspondingly travels the float to
extreme levels up and down. The reed switch is
thus "NC" and "NO" exchanged as well as the
permanent magnet on pivot will have mutual
repellence to the other one inside on the housing
for like poles, which the Microswitch is button-
pushed by magnet to states "NO" and "NC"
exchanging likewise.
Features
The side mounted float level sensor ( FF series)
are manufactured specifically for horizontal
mounting in a tank or vessel. They work well as
high or low level control.
1. Both MicroSwitch type and Reed Switch are
available. The MicroSwitch type is usable
even at ambient temp. of 100LC max.
2. Mounting flanges are custom-specifiable. (JIS,
DIN, ANSI).
3. A rich variety of floats can be suited different
specific gravity (S.G.) of liquid.(Custom-made)
4. Liquid-wetted party material can be selected
for SUS304 or SUS316 as well as enclosure
explosion proof model.

IMPORTANCE FOR INSTALLATION

1. SUS304/SUS316 materials is not available for
corrosive application.
2. The cable duct(s) must face downward to pre-
vent moisture sipping in.
3. The float and extension rod must be inserted
into a bin completely.
4. Be sure the liquid object's S.G. before
installation.
5. The mounting hole must be larger than
the external diameter of float.
6. Don't mount the devices near the bin's
inlet or outlet.
