Subject: [Amps] Switch Help Needed
Pardon the off-topic bandwidth, guys, but there are so
many resident parts-savvy folks here that might have a source
for me.
I am in need of some switches that actuate when immersed
in water. I am building some quantity indicators for the water
tanks on the fire trucks @ my local fire dept. I want to rig
a light/alarm when the water level drops below a set value.
Any ideas out there?
--------------------
Try contacting a company that deals with submersible pumps. They should have
specialist flotation switches which are simplt tethered by their cables - no
need for drilling holes. Common uses are pumping building basements, or
sewerage.
