Float switches

Versatile float switches from WIKA

Float switches in (the process) industry are used for the point-based limit level detection of one or several levels. They work independently of foaming, conductivity, dielectric, pressure, vacuum, temperature, vapours, condensation, bubble formation, boiling effects and vibrations and are suitable for almost all liquid media. The switching operation is contact-free, wear-free and needs no auxiliary power. The simple and proven functional principle of float switches enables a very wide range of applications from general industrial applications to use in process plants or in the shipbuilding industry.
