Why choose· 01

Built for your duty.

Low-profile installation

Side-entry switches fit shallow tanks and equipment where top insertion is not practical.

Material options

PP, PVDF and stainless versions can be matched to water, oil or compatible chemicals.

Simple alarm point

The switch provides one fixed point for high, low or interlock control.

Engineer-checked selection

WELK checks medium, alarm height, mounting orientation, connection, output logic, power, contact rating and material requirement so the quoted configuration matches the application.

Application-matched configuration

Selection notes focus on real tank conditions, measuring range, process connection, output signal and installation limits.

Product details· 02

How it is selected & specified.

Side-mounted float switches are often bought as small accessories, but they are important enough for a separate product page because mounting direction is decisive.

WELK confirms tank wall thickness, thread, liquid density, float travel direction and normally-open/normally-closed logic.

Side-Mounted Float Level Switch is presented as a configurable WELK product family. Final model limits, wetted materials, process connection, certificate and output signal are confirmed from the selected datasheet before quotation.

Point level switch selection starts from medium behavior, alarm point, mounting direction, density or dielectric, buildup risk, process connection, power and contact logic.

FAQ· 06

Side-Mounted Float Level Switch questions.

How do I choose the switching point for Side-Mounted Float Level Switch?

Start from medium, alarm height, mounting orientation, connection, output logic, power, contact rating and material requirement. WELK then confirms the exact model, material and output before quotation.

What is the difference between Side-Mounted Float Level Switch and continuous transmitter?

Side-Mounted Float Level Switch is selected for its specific duty and limitations. WELK compares it with continuous transmitter, radar, ultrasonic when the process data suggests another technology may be safer.

Can Side-Mounted Float Level Switch be customized?

Yes. Range, process connection, wetted material, output signal, cable length, display, switch points, documents and OEM label can be reviewed by product family.

What are the common limits of Side-Mounted Float Level Switch?

Sticky buildup, coating, turbulence, low density solids, non-conductive liquids or tank-wall material can make one switch principle unsuitable.

Are the listed specifications final for every project?

No. Published values are typical selection ranges. WELK confirms final limits, material, output, certificate and documents from the actual process data before quotation.
