The Polypropylene Float Level Switch is designed for reliable liquid level monitoring in water tanks and drinking water tanks. It features a durable polypropylene float that provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for various liquid media. It is ideal for pump control, level indication, and alarm applications in industrial and water treatment settings.

The Side-Mount Stainless Steel Float Level Switch is a rugged solution for liquid level monitoring in high-pressure industrial tanks, automotive fuel tanks, and harsh environments. Built with corrosion-resistant stainless steel (304/316L) and a polypropylene float, it tolerates extreme temperatures (-40℃ ~ +150℃, up to 300℃ for high-temperature models) and pressures (5–20 bar). Designed for pump control, overflow alarms, and level indication, it is essential in industrial processing, water treatment, and automotive sectors—where preventing liquid-related hazards (overflow, low levels) is critical.

The stainless steel body resists chemicals, fuels, and water corrosion, while the polypropylene float works with diverse liquids (oils, solvents, drinking water). This durability ensures longevity in marine, chemical, or food-processing environments.
Unlike top-mount switches, its side-mount design saves vertical space and simplifies installation on tank walls—ideal for tall industrial tanks or automotive fuel tanks with limited top access. Maintenance is also easier, as the tank doesn’t need draining.
With a working pressure of 5–20 bar (up to 16.0 MPa for heavy-duty models) and temperature range of -40℃ ~ +150℃ (300℃ for high-temperature variants), it performs reliably in industrial boilers, chemical storage tanks, or engine fuel systems.
The float-activated mechanism supports adjustable high/low/mid-level switch points, enabling precise control—e.g., turning on a pump when levels are low or triggering an alarm when levels are too high, adapting to diverse application needs.
In chemical processing or oil storage tanks, the switch monitors levels to prevent overflow or empty tanks. Protecting equipment and ensuring safety compliance. Its corrosion resistance handles acids, solvents, and oils.
Integrated into vehicle fuel tanks (including fuel-cell models), it tracks fuel levels in real time, sending data to the dashboard and preventing engine damage from low fuel.
In excavators or tractors, it maintains optimal hydraulic fluid levels. Preventing mechanical failure and extending equipment lifespan in dusty, high-vibration environments.
In water treatment plants or sewage reservoirs, it controls pumps (e.g., draining excess water) and triggers low-level alarms, supporting efficient water conservation and treatment.
Side-mount switches fit tall tanks with limited top access, save vertical space, and allow maintenance without draining the tank—critical for non-stop industrial processes.
Yes—food-grade 316L stainless steel and polypropylene options meet hygiene standards for food processing or pharmaceutical liquid storage (e.g., water-for-injection tanks).
Minimal—occasional float cleaning to remove debris (e.g., sediment in water tanks). The magnetic reed switch has no liquid-exposed parts, reducing wear.
Yes, if liquids have a density difference ≥0.5 g/cm³. The float adjusts to the upper liquid’s level, enabling accurate interface monitoring in separation tanks.
