EXPLOSION PROOF FLOAT SWITCH
(Replaces Standard Float Switch #217)

This switch assembly has the same functionality as our standard
float switch but all components, except the contactor, are
explosion proof.  The contactor is housed within an explosion
proof enclosure.

Not shown to the left are the replacing press-to-test switch and the
amber pump running light.  The explosion proof enclosure also is
not shown.

    FLOAT VALVE
(Replaces Standard Float Switch #217)

This option is used when a day tank is gravity fed from a main
storage tank.  Although technically it is not an electrical item, it
replaces the standard float switch.   Accordingly, there is no level
control and annunciation directly associated.
 

217
  FLOAT SWITCH (Standard)

This switch controls the start and stop of the pump motor.  There
are two sensors:
  • an ON sensor normally set at the 86% level, and
  • an OFF sensor that is normally set at the 100% level.

This option includes a bypassing “press-to-test” momentary
contact switch to manually test the pump motor, and an amber
pump-running light.  The contactor has two N.O. and two N.C.
secondary terminals that is rated at 15 amps.
 
 
218
  DOUBLE POLE/DOUBLE THROW (DPDT) FLOAT
SWITCH
(Replaces Standard Float Switch #217)

This switch functions the same as our Standard Float Switch  with
the exception that this one has two N.O and two N.C. secondary
terminals and is rated at 15 amps.  Each contactor has its own
float switch.

This option includes a bypassing "press to test" momentary
contact switch to manually test the pump motor, and an amber
pump-running light.
