1) Open the cap of housing, connect the wire onto terminal through the conduit.
2) Check the terminal wire connection is correct for each float.
3) Connection Type : Please refer to Fig.1 below.
A) 1NO : Meaning that the NO-C circuit will be close while liquid level higher than the float
ball by mark of " ON".
B) 1NC : Meaning that the B-C circuit will be close while liquid level lower than the float ball
by mark of " ON".
C) 1C : Meaning that the NO-C circuit will be close while liquid level higher than
the float ball and NC-C circuit will be close while liquid level lower than
the float ball.
4) Please screw up the housing cap and fix the conduit outlet to prevent the moisture to
soak in.

SPECIFICATION
(Fig.1)
1.Inductive : When using a reed switch with inductive loads such as motors,
relays,solenoids..etc, the contact will be subjected to a high induced voltage
during opening of the contact(load circuit). Such high induced
voltage(transients) may cause damages to the reed switch or significantly
reduce it life. Therefore,protective circuits such as : RC(snubber), varistors or
clamping diodes are recommended.
2.Capacitive : When using a reed switch with capacitive loads such as
capacitors,incandescent lamps or long cables, the contact will be subjected
to a high surge(inrush) current. Therefore, protective circuits such as:
surgesuppressors or current limiting resistors are recommended.

The single unit or multiple reed switch units are housed tightly in stainless steel stem and
tount the float ball to penetrate through the stem, then the liquid buoyancy will deliver the float
up and down at the specified position by graduating rings. When the reed switch is induction
the float internal magnet, then it will actuate the reed switch contact point to create an open or
close circuit. We can apply such on-off output signal to reach liquid level controlling and
monitoring purpose. The permanent magnet is interlined into the middle of the specified float
balls. You Can mhe figures below show the float orientations on N.O. (Normal Open) and N.C.
(Normal Close).
