Accessories
What is the difference from duckbill float switch?
This model uses a standard float structure, suitable for general-purpose applications. Duckbill types are more compact and designed for narrow spaces, while this model is more versatile.
What installation method is used?
It is installed on the side of the tank (horizontal installation), allowing level detection without top access.
What media can it be used for?
Suitable for water and non-corrosive liquids compatible with PP material.
How does the switch work?
The float moves with the liquid level and activates the internal reed switch through a magnetic field.
Can it be used for pump control?
Yes, it can be used to control pumps, alarms, or valves for automatic liquid level management.
Is installation complicated?
No. It is easy to install and requires only simple mounting on the tank wall.

The EDPS series differential pressure switch is a special type of control switch. It is a kind of switch that controls closing or opening based on the pressure difference between mutual components and relies on electrical signals for information transmission.
Floats are available in 1–4 pieces (optional,or more), and the rod length can be customized.
Notes:Float switches cannot directly control solenoid valves, high-power relays, AC contactors, etc. A small relay HH45P is required for transition.
