FLUID LEVEL​

LevelGuard® Electronic Sump Pump Switch from TouchSensor introduces Field-Effect sensing technology to reliably detec the presence of aqueous liquids without direct contact or the use of any moving parts. LevelGuard® offers solid-state control for residential pump and plumbing applications.

Electro-mechanical float or mercury-tilt switched have proven to be the weakest link in fluid management systems. LevelGuard eliminated the failure modes associated with these competing products, making it the preferred non-sewage pump control for home sump pump, irrigation, underwater vault, wet-well or storm water installations​.

High-Performance Pump Switch Technology​

  • Solid-state electronic design for non-sewage applications
  • Redundant upper limit sensors for “fail-safe” reliability
  • Outlasts competitive float switches 7 to 1
  • Highly resistant to contaminant and mineral build-up
  • Quick installation / Reduced maintenance 
  • Five (5) year warranty
