• There are many industrial and home applications
  where float switches prove themselves to be
  useful. In fact, in many cases, float switches
  are absolutely necessary for the proper operation
  of certain pieces of machinery. The switches by
  themselves don't do very much, but when combined
  with other pieces of equipment they prove very
  useful. There are many different types of
  switches that can be used for a variety of
  applications.

• The float switch is basically used to detect the
  level of liquid within a container. When a
  designated minimum or maximum level is reached,
  the float switch activates and triggers the
  desired response, such as turning a pump on or
  off or triggering an alarm.
• Float switches have uses in industry but also in
  the home. An environmentally friendly home may
  use a rainwater toilet and the chances are that
  it will be controlled by one of these devices.
  The cistern of the toilet will need to be filled
  from the main rainwater reservoir. When the
  cistern is not full enough, the switch can be set
  to activate a pump and replenish the water
  supply, switching off again when the cistern is
  full, thus preventing water overflowing and
  ruining the bathroom.
