For some time, I’ve been fighting with a “lever” float in my water tank to stop the fill process. As long as you watch over it, it works, only sticking occasionally. But like all of us, we sometimes get busy and forget to check things. When that happens, I would walk out at the least opportune time and see water flowing out the overflow port onto the ground.I finally got tired and started to look for other solutions. I like the electronic wire/rod sensors that show fill level, but they can get pricey. I wanted something a little simpler that did not involve a lot of electronics. I ran across this switch and took a look at it. What could be simpler than a ball bearing in a water-tight case that makes contact with a microswitch depending on its position in the water.Installation was a breeze. I picked up a motorized ball valve to start and stop the water flow with an automatic return to close when power is cut. It's powered by a 12V AC wall transformer. Safer than running 120V through the tank. When the water level gets low, the ball bearing closes the microswitch inside, opening the valve. The tank fills until the water level gets high enough to invert the float switch, causing the ball bearing to fall back, opening the switch and closing the valve. What could be simpler?The only thing I am still working on is adjusting the weight/length of wire to control the fill level. It could not be easier to install and use. A few more pieces than the original float rod, but well worth the change. Highly recommend.

It does exactly what it was described to do.

I have a 1/3 hp sump pump that didn't come with a level control. I got this float switch to control it. It's easy to wire in and no other electrical components are needed. No relays or switches. Wire it directly in line with the electrical plug. It is easy to set the control level of the water in the sump.

This is a clever approach to a fluid monitor. The unit is bigger than I expected (yes, the manufacturer posted the dimensions) but I expected something more compact. This might work for my application (I have to replace the pump in a dehumidifier) and it definitely works,
