Mounting Types:
Each mounting type can be configured with stem lengths Lo and float materials indicated in the table below.
† Mounting Types 2 & 3 are available with a 1/2" MNPT conduit adaptor. Note: Sanitary flange mountings are also available, but not shown. Please contact factory.
* In some instances, concentrations of chlorine and other corrosive compounds in the media require the use of collar type float stops. Consult factory for details. ** Mounting only. Maximum pressure rating for complete unit will be the lower of this pressure or the selected float pressure (see Float Types, on next page).
Float Types:
A single float type is selected for use at all actuation points.
*De-rated with increasing temperature. ** 316 Stainless Steel floats are available with ceramic potting that allows temperatures to 500°F (260°C); contact factory for these high-temperature floats.
Electrical:
Typically, one float is required for each point at which you need a switch action to occur. The number of actuation levels available depends on the Group Type Wiring selected.
Typical Wiring Diagrams
For clarity, only two actuation levels are shown in each group diagram.
Notes: 1. Units with 100 VA switches are not U.L. Recognized or CSA Listed.
L1, L2, L3, L4 & L5 actuation level distances and Lo (overall unit length) are measured from inner surfaces of mounting plug or flange.
Lo (Length overall) = L1 + Dimensions D . See mounting types for maximum length values.
