Mini-Floats
are pilot duty devices designed for small diameter sumps and places where
space is a determining factor in the selection of a level control device.
Mini-Floats control the function of motor load devices, such as contractors,
motor starters, and power relays, to automatically cycle a pump or pumps.
They can also be used for alarm signaling devices. Two Mini-Floats are needed
for a one-pump operation;three for a two-pump operation.
Mini-Floats are available in a combination of mounting styles, cable lengths,
and circuit configurations. Mounting styles are shown above: Pipe Mounted
(Type P), and suspended (Type S). 10, 15, and 25-foot cable lengths can be
special ordered. Electrical configurations must be specified; normally open,
(NO), for pump out applications and normally closed, (NC), for pump in applications.
