Attwood V-Series Automatic Float Switch
Key Features:
✅ Fully Automatic Operation: Converts compatible bilge pumps (drawing 12 amps at 12 VDC or 6 amps at 24 VDC or less) into fully automatic systems, ensuring efficient water removal.
✅ Compact and Low-Profile Design: The switch's low-profile design allows it to be mounted on various surfaces, including horizontal positions and angles up to 24 degrees.
✅ No Voltage Drop: Unlike some reed switch designs, this float switch maintains a consistent voltage, preventing voltage drops that can reduce bilge pump output.
✅ Reliable Mechanical Switch: Incorporates a reliable and cost-effective mechanical switch that activates the pump motor when water levels reach 2 inches.
✅ Secure Wire Leads: The wire leads are designed to remain stable and do not flex or hinge with the float, enhancing overall durability.
✅ Mercury-Free: Contains no mercury, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
✅ Easy Installation: Can be installed independently or directly onto the rear slots of the V-Series pump bracket.
✅ Convenient Test Knob: Features a test knob for easy testing of pump operation.
