Series FS-400 Stainless Steel Vertical Float Switches are durable oat switches with CSA and NSF certications and
a wide range of applications. Their compact size -- less than 3.5” from top of threads to end of stem -- all stainless
steel wetted materials, and user-reversible switch orientation, make them an easy choice for OEM, water and wastewater, and chemical applications.
Features
• Compact size
• Reliability/long switch life
• Shock resistive construction
• Can be used in a wide range of liquids
• Operating temperatures up to 500° F (260° C)
