RSF84YP, Sensata / Cynergy3 RSF80 Series Horizontal Polypropylene Float Switch, Float, NO/NC, 240V ac Max, 120V dc Max

Cynergy3 Horizontal Float Switches

Cynergy3 offers wide range of horizontal switches which are WRAS approved and have low-cost compact design. These horizontal float switches consist of a reed switch and a pivoted actuator magnet and can be used for N/O or N/C operation. The switch action can be reversed by mounting the float switch with the float able to move upwards away from the body instead of downwards.

Sensata Cynergy3 Horizontal Float Switch, NO/NC, M12 - RSF80 Series - RSF84YP

When you need to monitor liquid levels closely, opt for this Sensata Cynergy3 float switch. It's on hand to gauge low or high liquid levels when filling up or emptying your tank. The floating component of the device lies on the liquid surface and causes the switch to change when it rises or falls. This sends a signal, alerting you of the change in your liquid level. As the switch mounts to the side of a tank, you can install it in containers with no vertical access.

Features & Benefits

• Wide operating temperature of -20°C to +100°C for use in harsh environments
• Strong polypropylene body material for lasting use
• M12 standard mounting thread for compatibility with common fixtures
• 'Normally open' (NO) or 'normally closed' (NC) switch output configuration options for versatility

Where can I use this switch?

This type of float switch is commonly used in water pumps. It's an easy way to control the level of groundwater, wastewater or sewage, preventing hazardous overspills. You can also use it for fluid transfer pumps at waterworks and as a high-water alarm to protect liquids in your systems from reaching dangerous levels.
