Technology
The vertical buoyancy switch and the vertical float switch both con­sist of a float, magnet, reed switch and baffle body which dampens turbulence and eliminates the negative effects of switch chatter. When the probe is dry, the float rests on the bottom of the baffle body such that the magnet does not influence the reed switch. As the probe becomes immersed in liquid, the float becomes buoyant and the mag­net elevates causing the reed switch to change state.
