The Lovato LVFSA1D20 is a robust float switch designed specifically for drinking water level control. As part of the Lovato LVFSA1D float switch series, it provides reliable filling or emptying control in tanks, reservoirs and water management systems where hygienic cable materials and dependable level detection are required.
The LVFSA1D20 is supplied with a 20 m PVC AD8 3G1 cable that is health certified to ACS requirements for drinking water applications. Its polypropylene float body, external AISI 316 stainless steel counterweight and IP68 protection rating make it suitable for continuous use in submerged level-control installations.
With a 30° activation angle, one changeover SPDT contact and switching capability up to 10 A AC-1 at 250 V AC, the LVFSA1D20 can be configured for either filling or emptying operation. It supports installation depths up to 20 m and operating pressures up to 2 bar, making it suitable for a wide range of drinking water storage and pumping applications.
Float switches such as the Lovato LVFSA1D20 detect liquid level by changing contact state as the float rises or falls with the water surface. This allows pumps, valves or control relays to be switched automatically for filling or emptying applications without requiring electronic sensing probes inside the tank.
The LVFSA1D20 is specifically engineered for drinking water installations, combining an ACS-certified cable with a polypropylene float and stainless steel counterweight. Its 20 m cable and IP68 construction make it suitable for deep tanks, reservoirs and water storage systems where reliable submerged level monitoring is required.
