Drop-In Float Switches for Water
Plastic Float and
Three-Prong Socket
Hang these free-floating switches in your tank for water-level monitoring that doesn’t require installation through a tank wall.
Switches with three-prong socket allow you to plug your pump directly into the switch; the socket piggybacks to the three-prong plug. They’re often used to trigger an alarm.

Foot Switches
Keep your hands free for other tasks by triggering switches with your foot.
Back-pivot switches actuate with a tap of the toe. Center-pivot switches let you control two circuits with a single foot—one with your toe and one with your heel. Also known as rocker switches, they can be pressed either forward or backward, meaning you actuate one circuit at a time.
Two-speed switches have staged contacts. For slow speed, push the pedal halfway to close the first contact; for high speed, push it all the way to close the second contact.
