4M 13ft Cable Float Switch, Water Level Controller, for Tank Pump, Water Tank or Sewage System On Auto Pilot, with Counterweight

Needed to replace well tank float switch. This one is lighter and easier to install the the previous one. Float weight could have been easier to install as it did not come with instructions and I broke the cable lock ring. Otherwise it is working great. Next is seeing how long it lasts.

It works great

Sure! Here's a more complete review: The Baomain water level controller with a 4-meter float switch is a very practical solution for maintaining the water level in tanks or pumping systems. Its design allows for quick and easy installation, and the 4-meter cable length makes it versatile for different tank sizes. Furthermore, its ability to handle moderate voltages and currents makes it compatible with most small pumps.

Okay, so let me dive into why I'm totally wowed by this float switch. I run a water business and, being fairly new to this, I'm learning on the fly. I've hooked up tanks as alternate water sources to homes before, but adding pumps was new territory for me. My background? Sump pumps for basements and sewers, but tanks? That's a different ball game. Here's a little insight for those who might not know (like I didn't at first) – standard float switches typically trigger pumps to drain water when the float is up. But for water storage, you need the exact opposite. And yep, I learned this the hard way. Wired everything up, standard style, and then hit the panic button when my pump went berserk every time I plugged it in. Rookie mistake, but hey, we all start somewhere, right? Then I discovered this float switch, and it's a total lifesaver. It's versatile – you can set it to work whichever way you need, up or down. This little gem completely saved my project. A bit of background: I never planned to offer this as a service, but living in an area with limited technical support, I figured why not help out where I can? So, here I am, learning as I go and sharing the wisdom. Long story short: If you need a float switch that adapts to your needs, this is the one you want. It's a game-changer, especially for self-taught folks like me!

Does the job, best quality

Worked great, until it was 3 months old. No longer working, water flooded all over! I'm unhappy, have a mess, and need a new float again.

Only lasted about 7 months used for water tank for house

Its not bad for the price. Bought 2 of these(2017), so when the first one failed in 2023, I installed the spare. I then ordered a new spare. I don't directly run the 240V 2HP well pump, but use a 110v contactor through this float switch, so the small microswitch in this float does not have to deal with any inductive loads.

No soporta ni los volteos mínimos que dice, se quema el cable desde la primera

Fait le travail demandé depuis plus d’un an

Price is excellent, Made in China like everything else? Looks well made though! Bought this for a water feature I have in my front yard. "If" water level gets to low in resevoir then it will shut off the pump so no damage will occur. I like that it can be used like a NC (normally closed) switch or a NO (normally open) switch . Sump pumps in houses use a normally open switch for those of you that do not know. I gave it 4 stars because the mechanism inside doesnt seem to slide smoothly when activated hmmmmm? But it does its job I guess thats what counts We ll see how long it lasts for Thanks for reading

bought 3. 1 quit one day after return deadline, tried to return without success. Other 2 are still working ok. So maybe 1 in 3 are bad????. For their price maybe thats still ok. Otherwise I like being able to wire them according to application.
