Side Mount Float Switch Grommet Water Level Sensor Tank Aquarium Pump

Description �� Side Mount Float Switch Grommet Water Level Sensor | AuscomTech This side mount float switch is a compact and reliable liquid level sensor designed for installation through tank walls using a secure grommet-style fitting. It detects liquid levels using a floating mechanism that activates an internal switch, allowing it to trigger pumps, alarms, or control systems based on rising or falling fluid levels. Ideal for tanks, aquariums, reservoirs, and hydroponic systems, this sensor integrates easily with Arduino, ESP32, relay modules, and other control electronics. ⭐ Key Features Grommet mounting design – provides a simple and secure push-fit installation without threaded fittings. Side mount configuration – perfect for horizontal installation in tanks and containers. Reliable float switching – automatically detects high or low liquid levels depending on installation orientation. Low power switching – suitable for signal input, relay triggering, and control circuits. Durable PP construction – resistant to corrosion and suitable for water-based applications. Mercury-free operation – safe mechanical switching design. �� Technical Specifications Product Type: Side mount float switch Mounting Type: Grommet (push-fit) Material: PP (Polypropylene) Contact Rating: 10W max Switching Voltage: 110V DC max Switching Current: 0.5A max Breakdown Voltage: 220V DC max Carry Current: 1A max Operating Temperature: -10°C to 60°C Function: Liquid level detection �� Typical Applications Water tank level monitoring Aquarium and fish tank systems Hydroponic and irrigation setups Sump pump control and protection Reservoir level detection Liquid level alarms and automation DIY electronics and control systems ⚠️ Important Notes Designed for low-power switching and signal control applications. Use a relay module when switching higher power loads such as pumps. Mounting orientation determines normally open or normally closed operation. Ensure compatibility with the liquid used before installation. �� Package Includes 1 × Side mount float switch (grommet type) �� Recommended Accessories (Not Included) Relay module – for controlling pumps and valves Arduino or ESP32 board – for monitoring and automation Waterproof enclosure – protects electronics in humid environments Jumper wires or connectors – for quick installation
