Parts Desk Insights

Best Use Case: Ideal as a sealed, mercury-free float switch option when you’re upgrading a bilge pump arrangement and want the switch to resist moisture and debris effects.

Common Issues: If the float does not actuate reliably, check that the switch is mounted within the recommended angle range, confirm the float moves freely without obstruction, and ensure debris doesn’t interfere with the float cover/area around the switch.
