This Attwood Float Switch can convert a manual bilge pump into one that is controlled fully automatically by this responsive and efficient switch. This switch features a compact, low-profile design that mounts on any surface from horizontal up to a 24-degree angle. It incorporates a reliable mechanical switch that actuates the pump motor at 2 inches water level. The wire leads do not flex or hinge with the float, as they do on some competitive models, and the integral cover dampens bilge sloshing to reduce pump cycling and prevent debris interference. The sealed switch mechanism resists moisture, fume-ignition, and electrical shock. It is 12- and 24-volt CE rated and has a 36-inch wire connection. The maximum amp draw is 12 amps (at 12-volt DC) or 6 amps (at 24-volt DC). This switch measures 4 ¼ inches L x 3 7/8 inches W x 1 3/8 inches H. It contains no mercury, which is listed as a health hazard and “Persistent Toxic Substance” in over 26 states. Marine ignition protected and RoHS compliant. Attwood Corporation has been an award-winning leader in engineering, testing, and manufacturing the highest quality marine products for over 100 years. We deliver safe and reliable lighting, fuel systems, water systems, seating & pedestals, swim ladders, custom upholstery, and general marine accessories that are easy to install and meet regulatory compliance.

worst ever. Heard a loud bang from the thing. Next thing you know smoke coming out of it. Good thing I was present. Also it was running without any water in the boat. It's a wonder my bilge pump didn't burn up along with this piece of garbage.

I am an avid boater, currently have 3 boats and 5 bilge pumps. This is the best one I have found. Perhaps there is a better one for a lot more cash but this one has worked great through the years!

Replaced my 2007 Sea Ray Sport 185 Float switch with this unit and was an exact replacement. After 5 months still working.Reason for 2 stars on installation is because Sea Ray has it under the bottom of the engine which is hard to get at.

Installing this properly likely will require a soldering iron, shrink tubing, and some dielectric grease...so just keep that in mind. But, once installed right, this thing is slick. Turns my bilge on/off with zero issues even in rain/winds. I'm running it in salt water most of the time...still going strong.

This is a piece that will eventually fail (mine did after about 15 years, but that's a pretty good run), and such failure can be potentially catastrophic. I test them every once in a while to make sure they are working, and when they fail i replace them immediately. It's nice to be able to replace the old one with the exact same model because all of the mounting points and wires are exactly the same.

The switch works fine. Adjust the angle so when the paddle goes down the pump shuts off. When first installed in the bilge I had to shim the mounting to get the pump to shut off. Every bilge is different. Seemed that there was quite a bit of water before it turned the pump on, but this was not a real problem.
