Contact Suppliercable type float switch is a simple, reliable device used to automatically control liquid levels (usually water) in tanks, wells, or sumps.
A cable float switch consists of:
A floating body (usually plastic)
A cable with a weight
An internal switch mechanism (like a ball or mercury-free contact)
⚙️ How it works
The float sits on the surface of the liquid.
As the water level rises or falls, the float tilts.
This tilt activates an internal switch, which:
Turns ON a pump (when water is high), or
Turns OFF a pump (when water is low)
🔁 Types of operation
Normally Open (NO) – closes circuit when level rises
Normally Closed (NC) – opens circuit when level rises
Can be wired for:
Filling control (overhead tanks)
Emptying control (sump/drainage)
Common applications
Water tanks (overhead & underground)
Borewells
Sewage and drainage systems
Industrial liquid tanks
