Georg Fischer 2285 Specifications

2285 Level Float Switch

The 2285 Level Float Switch is suitable for level
switching of various liquids, sewage in shafts, tanks,
basins or cisterns. The double-chambered float is made
of injection molded tough polypropylene that ensures
good waterproof protection.

Features

• Hermetically molded, double chamber

• Mercury free operated micro switch

• Use for drinking and wastewater

The contacting microswitch is incorporated in the float.
The cable of the level switch is absolutely waterproof
and PVC insulated. Different control tasks such as liquid
level monitoring and pump control can be realized. It is
mercury-free contact and suitable for level switching of
drinking water, raw water or polluted liquids with low
solid content.

The level switching is done when the contact reaches
the ±45° switching angle. The switching differential
of the level switch is adjustable by the position of the
counterweight on the cable. The level switches should be
arranged appropriately in case of multi-level switching
tasks to avoid undesired tangling of the cables.
