Promet SKF Float Switch with 10m Cable

The Promet SKF float switch is a robust and dependable level control device engineered for the precise monitoring of liquid levels in tanks, reservoirs, and sumps. Featuring a durable 10-meter cable, this unit facilitates seamless automatic operation of pumps, valves, and alarm systems. Its design ensures consistent performance in various fluid management environments, providing a reliable solution for maintaining optimal liquid levels while preventing issues such as dry running or tank overflow.

Advantages

This float switch offers exceptional reliability due to its high-quality construction and sealed housing, which protects internal components from moisture and environmental stressors. The generous 10-meter cable length provides significant flexibility during installation, allowing for placement in deep tanks or remote locations without the need for additional wiring extensions. By automating the start and stop functions of pumping equipment, it enhances operational efficiency and significantly reduces the risk of equipment damage caused by improper liquid levels.

Suitable for

• Automatic control of submersible pumps
• Monitoring water levels in domestic and industrial tanks
• Prevention of dry running in pump systems
• Overflow protection for reservoirs and cisterns
• Wastewater and clean water management systems

When it may not be suitable

This device is not intended for use with highly corrosive, aggressive, or flammable liquids that may degrade the cable insulation or the float housing material. It is also not suitable for high-pressure environments or applications involving extreme temperatures outside the specified operational range.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 meters
• Function: Automatic level control
• Application: Liquid level monitoring
• Compatibility: Pumps and valves

How to use

Installation involves securing the float switch at the desired height within the tank or reservoir. The switch should be positioned so that the float moves freely as the liquid level rises and falls. Once the cable is routed to the control panel, it is wired into the pump or valve circuit according to the desired switching logic, either for filling or emptying operations. Ensure all electrical connections are made in a dry, protected environment to maintain safety and system integrity.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the cable length is sufficient for the depth of your tank
• Ensure the liquid type is compatible with the float switch materials
• Check the electrical load requirements of your pump or valve
• Confirm the mounting space allows for the full range of float movement

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the float switch and cable for any signs of physical damage or debris accumulation that might impede movement. Periodically test the switching mechanism to ensure the pump or valve responds correctly to liquid level changes.
